Their mandate is that they’re selling the games with a DRM free installer. If it’s delisted, you can still install that game DRM free on anything else as long as you have the files.
Get a USB stick with a cool design, put the installer on it, yeet it in a video game box, throw some box art on it, and you basically have the physical game.
If it feels like the physical game is something else entirely, but I think their mandate is being lived up to just fine :)
It is, in fact, because the games are only 6 years old. The publisher thinks they’re losing money by selling on gog. And, for people who have already purchased the game on gog, they can still access the downloads.

Should they continue selling licenses they don’t have the rights to?
Oh course not, but the fact this is an outcome for games that are only 6 years old rather flies in the face of their mandate.
