GOG: 1 million claimed the Freedom to Buy Games bundle in 24 hours freedomtobuy.games

I clicked on the bundle because I was curious to see it and now I have a bunch of porn games I guess. I don’t have an issue with porn games but I don’t play porn games so now I have a bunch of trash cluttering my library.

I was able to kinda hide them but they are still there.

Huniepop is genuinely one of the better match 4 type games out there and has a bathing suit only mode if you are feeling adventurous.

None of them are even remotely close to the sort of games I enjoy, the porn part isn’t the issue I just don’t care for “dating” sims or puzzle games.

Did the same. Not sure, just by looking at the icon/thumbnail, that any of it was made for me. But am still proud to have them added to my account!

Apparently some of them are very good in their own right, telling a compelling and interesting story and not just being horny cash-grabs so I’m tempted to give them a shot.
I played the original Yu-No because of how it is the foundation upon which all modern visual novel games are built. That was a difficult experience and I do not recommend it to anyone not already very interested in the history of the genre, there is a lot of content there that is not for me.
But that was the game that made the industry say “oh shit, these things can be good, too”.

Side-note: the modern rerelease of Yu-No has the more objectionable stuff stripped out, but then we’ve got to have the censorship discussion all over again.

Anyway. My point is this: I have also overlooked these games but might have to rethink that.

I also got like 10 capchas for 1 of the codes (just one after the other) then it threw an error anyway. I appreciate their gesture, but so far it’s been like 30 minutes of wasted time with nothing to show for it.

Some countries banned Postal 2 so they can’t give it to you if you live in, as a random example, Germany.

Congratulations on already living in the future they’re protesting. Realistically they probably should have recognized this would be a problem and told you the specific error but their giveaway codes aren’t really meant for this so whatever.

If you do live in a country like that you could, however, spend $70 on a year of Mullvad and be a Canadian as far as GOG knows or cares.

Maybe you should be doing that anyways, regardless of whether you want horny games and also Postal 2.

I want to buy more from GOG but my only gaming system I have is a Steam Deck. I know the native Linux stuff should work ok but u always have problems getting windows stuff to work. Either through Heroic Launcher or Proton. I must be doing something wrong. All the guides I find are just wrong or out of date.

I want to buy more but I can’t seem to find any games I actually wanna play or don’t already own on Steam. This campaign did remind me that they exist and that I should try to support them more, so I think it was a net positive for me!

If only GOG was this militant when it involved Taiwanese developers (Red Candle Game devs), I would still be using their platform. They haven’t even allowed Nine Sols on it, so I haven’t bothered going back yet or have even recommended them to the degree I usually did over Steam.

It’s not even that they had to censor themselves, it’s their woeful attempt at an excuse. It’s funny whom they kneel before and whom the are activists against. Were it a China “Many Gamers” matter, do not expect them to have been as willing…

It has a lot to do with how it would have affected Cyberpunk 2077’s release in China and it’s huge gaming market. I mean, just look at the downvote count in my previous comment, there are a lot of butthurt factory trolls downvoting it from the red stained Lemmy “Marxist Leninist” foundries. China cannot accept any political commentary, specially coming from Taiwan, and the devs got punished for it. The devs capitulated, but China did not care, so why bother?

It means you needed to enter a code that is probably no longer valid. There was a link at the top for that under your account info.

I think it was FREEDOMTOBUYGAMES or something if you want to try, you can probably search for it to confirm.
