IAmSinistar: The aforementioned split Dracula 4+5 games do not have covers on my shelf.
Mmmm. They have, in mine.

Thanks! I think they should have kept those.

They're showing for me now too. Probably just took a little while to get them in the system.

I wish I knew. Alas, all I can do is report what MaGog finds.

Not sure what you mean by this

Good. It's awful when you have some error other people don't have.

There was a weird glitch going on with Dracula 4's installers but it's ben fixed :)

Agreed. Since the artwork was already available. Would have made more sense.
Just noticing the Dracula unbundling today, checked my shelf and I see that it successfully split into two games. What's odd though is that yesterday I had 335 game boxes on my shelf before this split, and now today the split on that one game has occurred which should make my total game count 336, but it still shows 335 however I expected that the counter would rise as the games get split up however that could be an incorrect assumption.

So question to GOG (perhaps you could answer Judas?), is does the counter indicate products purchased, or does it indicate individual games now? Should it increase as the games are split up?

Followup question: If it should have went up by one with the dracula split that would suggest a game is now missing from my shelf. I checked and the Fallout games are still there so no relapse with that glitch occurring.

I'm not particularly concerned about it either way as I know things are in a shuffle right now and there will be the odd glitch along the way as we adapt to the changes, but I'm not sure if the current observation is a glitch or my own misunderstanding so just trying to figure that out. If there is a glitch I will try to figure out which game is missing by comparison with my local game backups and report back any oddities I find.

Thanks in advance, and don't work too hard! :)

Dracula 4+5 was split a long time ago. Yesterday they just rearranged the installers within each sub-game,.

And this is now better because...?

[EDIT] Just read mrkgnao's post above.

Cognition all having the same cover is pretty bullcrap, though. Why do that?

I guess this was done "Following your many requests".

no; when dracula 5 came out it was in a bundle with dracula 4 , but for some reason the bundle was unbundled quite some time ago... i can't remember when , but i'm 100% sure it has nothing to do with the lastest gog's announcement.

Doh , they used the same image for all cognition episodes , why not using the old ones o_o

Noticed the same, It's really weird. O_o
Why change it when it was never bundled in the first place.
Ok, thanks for the feedback everyone, I must have missed the Dracula thing before and just got confused today then, sounds like a false alarm. :) Has anyone who's got the Alien Breed unbundle noticed their counter go up?
