Exhodos: Thanks! I would gladly buy The Surge 2, wondering why the Premium Edition is not discounted when the base game is though? Loved the first one.

idbeholdME: It seems pretty random. So far, the Premium has been discounted only once (I grabbed it then). It was like a month ago.

There have been complaints about this every time it happens. No idea why they keep doing it.

EDIT:
Same case with The Surge 1 in this sale. Only the base game is discounted.

Exhodos: Oh well ok, anyway it's cheaeper to buy the discounted base game and the not discounted season pass than the Premium Edition... Hope there is nothing more in the Premium than in base game + season pass.
This is because FHI does not know that in GOG there are different versions of one game - these are really different items in the catalog. And that when you buy the main game + DLCs, you do not get the extended version of the game as a result (like in Steam).
In general, FHI does exactly what it does in Steam.
The problem is that GOG has had this problem for many years, users have been complaining about it for many years, but GOG hasn’t solved this problem.

Pathfinder: Kingmaker is probably in its historical low. It's definitely worth grabbing. :)

Well, in an email over last major sale I think I remember Pathfinder Kingmaker being around $12 (I'd hoped this sale would replicate that price)... but yes, in a regular sale, I think this is probably the lowest.

Is Balrum worth trying?
Are negative opinions still valid (considering all updates)?
How it compares to e.g. Eschalon?

I'm thinking of picking up Pathfinder. Though I don't care too much for fantasy settings these days, I'll go for a game that has strong writing and solid gameplay. Does it? Is it on par with, say Baldur's Gate 2?

In my opinion, it's even "better" than Baldur's Gate. Gameplay has some quirks (by this, I mean "artificial" difficulty); it requires moderate amount of knowledge of Pathfinder system; but it provides absolutely insane amount of builds. Consider it mostly Baldur's Gate with some amount of Fallout like skill checks. Writing is little bit generic, but it doesn't lack depth.

I have to recommend GreedFall, which I'm playing right now. It's a pretty good third-person RPG in a similar style to the classic BioWare games. Some flaws and jank, being a mid-budget title from a relatively small developer, but I'm definitely enjoying it.

Playing Fallout New Vegas now, wow, so much better then Fallout 3.

Has Greedfall been 50% off yet? I understand mixing up the discount but I think it got down to 50% already.

also I think Revenant was the last game solely published by Square Enix (not co-published with Forever Entertainment SA, which two games are here) in 2015. I almost feel bad b/c I think that one gave GOG headaches and ended up getting mediocre-to-poor reviews here, so I dunno if it was financially worthwhile to bring :p

Sigh, again a sale where most are owned, this sucks and i'm desperate for some variety in sales.

Yes, agree. Greedfall was easily my favorite game played in the last year. Perfect? No -- definitely a padded, janky AA title (albeit on the cusp of AAA quality) -- but great atmosphere, strong companions, good combat, and an engaging story. When the credits rolled I was sad to leave the world it created.
