Wickez: and now we are left with this botched release that's gonna be used by everyone by default, since there's no alternative available.

Wickez: The "new, better" THQ 64 bit re-release is crap; the melee bug with the block/counterparry is nullifying any satisfaction from participating in melee. And that's only a single bug; there are extra new ones introduced too (in place of those few old ones that were eliminated, I suppose).

Knowing THQ's history with the other re-released titles and seeing they had financial restructuring as of lately, they won't address this anytime soon, and now we are left with this botched release that's gonna be used by everyone by default, since there's no alternative available.

Please add the "old" installer back to the offline installers tab for the game, please. I need it, since it's the only one that's majorly compatible with the various tools and source codes (for plugins) created by the community before the THQ re-release.

And while you would be adding it back, please remove the sub-installer for nVidia PhysX Legacy package. Risen runs perfectly with the newest PhysX (9.21.0713, dated 15.10.2021) bundle. It was also confirmed by NicoDE (nickname of one of the main coders of the title) that you don't need the legacy package, because Risen uses v2.8.1 of PhysX and that version is included in the newest package from above [even though it would run on the Legacy version of up to 2.7.2.

Be a distributor that fixed a problem that a publisher created: we need access to a proper 32 bit installer of Risen.

Cheerio.

rtcvb32: I see my offline Risen installers are 2015, v 2.0.0.6 (whatever that means).

I'd offer to upload so you can get it, but i doubt that will matter much, not to mention it would take a long time to upload.

neumi5694: You might want to write a ticket. Reactions to forum posts are very very rare.

ps: Have you tried rolling back to an earlier game version using Galaxy?

alexandros050: Also they haven't released the missing updates for the GOG version.

Ancient-Red-Dragon: That's nothing new.

GOG & Larian left a game-breaking bug in the game Divinity: Original Sin 1 for almost 5 years, before Larian finally fixed it.

And that bug was also introduced in an update that added a new language.

GOG easily could have remedied that problem immediately, and allowed customers to bypass that bug, by making all offline installers for that game available.

But they never did. Instead, they let that bug fester and wreck the GOG version of the game for those 5 years.

So good luck with that re-occurrence of this same kind of problem. I hope they solve this one faster, if at all, although I wouldn't expect that they will, given the history of the incident I just described.

Wickez: Hey. I found some torrent and used it download the version you have, since this is the one I had too in Risen's offline installers tab, before THQ's re-release took over. Thanks for the offer, still.

But this is so retarded I have to resort to such practice: Steam still lets the owners of Risen to choose between the 32 bit (old) and 64 bit (new) releases.
