C&C ist deeply burrowed in my Heart. Tempest Rising ist the closest to that for decades. The OST fits, the Single Player Missions seem to have the wack I crave.
This is one of the most exciting RTS releases of the past decade. It'd be great to see this game on GOG. Tempest Rising is an excellent RTS inspired greatly by Command and Conquer games, especially Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars.

So Tempest Rising on gog only makes sense if they add a LAN Option and has a self build card management. Maybe gog should also wait for a final version including dlc's or all factions.
Won't buy on steam. Don't cry about low sales later if it is only on steam, I would love more C&C like games unfortunatly EA destroyed that series. Hopefully no micro tranactions.

It would be fantastic if GOG could introduce a pre-order/pledge system for games that developers haven't yet committed to listing on the platform. Imagine GOG approaching developers with data demonstrating significant player interest – "Here's the number of users who have pledged to purchase your game, and here's the amount already collected." This would be a powerful incentive for developers to agree to a GOG listing and guarantee immediate revenue upon release. If a deal can't be reached, or the agreed price is unfavorable, the pledged funds could be refunded to users. This could greatly expand GOG's catalog and benefit both players and developers.
Those games also need your vote!

Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
Breath of Fire: Dragon QuarterBreath of Fire: Dragon Quarter is a radical departure from the previous titles of the Breath of Fire series, and in some ways from standard Japanese-style role-playing games in general. The game is built like a huge dungeon crawler, with no overworld map. The combat is tactical: each character has action points (AP), which can be used to move around the screen during an enemy encounter, and perform a variety of combo attacks. There is no magic in the game, and many of the items found in dungeons are random. All the enemies are visible on screen. Depending on who first initiated a physical contact, the party or the enemies get an extra turn in battles. The game allows (and even encourages) the player to restart it from the beginning, keeping the items and the party experience. The game also features a special counter - Ryu can use his traditional dragon transformation abilities, but the counter raises with each such transformation, and when the counter reaches 100, the game is over. Raising the D-ratio allows characters to access new areas every time the game is replayed.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Foxy
FoxyFoxy is a pure strategy game, without any RPG elements. The player is taken from one battle to another; there is no gameplay outside of battles. The battles take place in various city districts. The player navigates his/her units in turn-based fashion. In the beginning, the battles are relatively small-scale, with infantry and tank units; as the game progresses, more unit types are introduced, including massive rocket-launching tanks, jet planes, catapults, etc. Each unit has distinct advantages and disadvantages, different mobility, attack range, etc. For example, infantry units that carry rocket launchers can only attack diagonally, but cannot be hurt when they attack tanks from that position; being attacked frontally, however, makes them very vulnerable. Terrain also plays a role; certain terrain types may slow down certain unit types, or be completely impassable to others. Each next battle features more complex layouts and larger amounts of units. Between the battles there are cut-scenes, most of which are dedicated to rescuing the girls, and feature nudity and mild sexual situations.
