I was eager to try GoG Galaxy but... it's quite poo poo. I'm getting full speed with the GoG downloader while Galaxy just drops to 0 - 100 kb/s after a few minutes and stays there. I understand it's still just beta, but I'd kinda expect it to have the simplest download management features by now. Can't even pause them.

Galaxy downloads at full speed for me but since I don't own too many GOG games it's just another piece of useless DRM for me, like the Social Club for GTA4 (and 5 from what I understand) or that Ubisoft thing. I'm glad the downloader exists.

So i downloaded the first 26 gigs and now it says 26/50 gigs to download so uh, yeah, I guess it's 50. e: Nevermind, I guess what happened is after downloading and installing the game, it decided to download the installer (which is 23 gigs). hopterque fucked around with this message at 14:08 on May 11, 2015 |

Is there going to be a Steam preload or is GoG going to start getting snooty about their games on Steam like other companies with digital storefronts?

Most publishers seem to make a huge deal of it when a game sells 1 million units total, so reaching that number before the game has even launched is impressive.

Also, I had a question a couple pages back: I'll paraphrase it here and maybe you can answer it: Are there situations in W3 where you fight someone and win, but the cutscene has you lose for plot reasons? It happened three times in W2 on Iorveth's path and it sorta ticks me off.

I'm currently replaying it and the Ruins is my next mission. Isn't that the mission where you don't get attacked in the first part if you spared Shaheed? Actual gameplay consequences from your actions, that was loving awesome!

Will the (likely it seems?) commercial success of Witcher 3 significantly impact on Cyberpunk 2077? I've heard the teams are fairly separate (?), but I'm hoping there'll be some sweet sweet cash to be injected into that project. The world needs more sci-fi RPGs.

It's still a week out, I don't see a big issue since they're doing the preload so early. Hope it's not an issue once the game's released.

Newegg sent me a code to register at the NVidia site, and then they either send you a code or ask you to log into GOG and activate the product that way. Had it all done the same day, no issues.

Has the save import been discussed by the developers at all? If the non-import / unhandled choices act like Mass Effect and just assume the shittiest option I can probably finish TW2 in a week if I powergame it on Normal.
