You deserve a pat on the back-Gog

Post by deathknight1728 »

This message is to Basilisk Wrangler and anyone else that has longed for this. The eschalon series is on good old games and this is good news.

Now my 2 favorite rpg companies are together as one on my favorite rpg buying site.

I think that Basilisk Wrangler deserves to show this to his whole family as this is a major accomplishment as a game developer and a person as a whole. Gog doesnt take just any rpgs and these are some of the best of them.

I hope that you sell many copies. I am now going to go and spread the word.

This is pretty awesome! Will Book III and the unnamed sci-fi game be on GOG when they come out, too, I wonder?

Kewlness. Haven't gotten any news from GOG and specials recently. I'll go take a look at the site sometime soon just to see it on my screen. :lol: I don't get very many games from them, it was my son's idea to get the Ultima series for the Mac a while ago.

Congrats BW. :D

How pathetic can you get?
For those following along at home: http://www.gog.com/forum/eschalon_serie ... tes_on_map

I don't think he's saying he won't buy the games, just that he's on the fence and wants to see more before he buys. We all have our own fiddly preferences for how things work in games, but I don't think people deserve to be mocked for them. Clearly this is a younger guy who's used to some of the conveniences of modern games. I'm happy that he's even willing to entertain trying an old-school RPG.

GOG doesn't advertise the fact that there's a free demo. Whether or not that's a good idea for them is an open question. So the user probably doesn't know about it. You could always post on the forum there and tell him.
