this is really cool but some of the requests on there are a bit silly
like yea good luck with that one
Craziest part is, with the decompilation, all a legal port needs is custom textures/audio
Brings me endless joy to see Freelancer as the most requested game.
There has yet to be a game in the intervening 25 years that has scratched the same itch as freelancer for me. Perfect blend of story and sandbox.
I came here just to say that!
Battle for middle earth games
GOG galaxy for Linux just for shits and giggles might as well have it at the top of all their lists.
Jokes aside they're missing a few of my childhood favourites not many people care about like Quarantine, Big Red Racing. Seeing freelancer on there is great hope it makes it through. Same with None Lives Forever & B&W impossible to find them outside of personal physicals and 7 seas.
EDIT found the whole list update games mentioned with the pages
I see No One Lives Forever in there. I would love love love to see those games listed and maybe even another sequel, but my understanding is the IP ownership is caught in limbo and very unlikely to ever escape.
You're playing a dangerous game, GOG. I have a LOT of favorite retro games. Asking me to list them is like asking for a mountain of data to have to pour through. Also I love you.
That's already happened, that list was 600 pages yesterday, today 2056 and counting.
I know! I told you I had a long list! Now just imagine what would happen if OTHER people added their favorites too!
but they already had a community wishlist...?
Edit: This seems to replace it. don't know about that... this seems more curated than the old one which means less niche stuff will come up.
Interestingly they seem to have migrated the old votes to this. First I thought the writer had sneakily linked to the Dreamlist so that everybody would automatically vote for NOLF.
good writer
Maybe they're embarassed at all the games and features sitting on the old wishlist for over a decade.
I dare them to try to get the rights to rerelease Uniracers
I hope this will finally make it possible to get discworld 1+2 available for purchase online.
Maybe even discworld noir. Here's to hoping.
But Discworld Noir is dreadful!
Also it has Vines being corrupt!
I've never played and that's why i want it on GoG. Even if it's bad, I just want it to be available for everyone to have a chance to experience it themselves.
That's fair. It's not actually awful, I just didn't enjoy its mechanics (and it was wildly unstable too).
It's a cool feature to make a collective wishlist. I wonder how helpful it is to get deals for those games in place. Maybe the more prominent placement and the visible number of upvotes can help deals get made? They already had a much less prominent wishlist that resulted in similar results.
Also, Dino Crisis is now live, after the original RE trilogy re-release. That's hilarious.
