Realms of Arkania? You were probably looking for Blade of Destiny, under which the game can't be found.

Very few games get removed from the GOG catalogue over time and it is almost always by request of the publisher and most often due to legal issues or similar such as change of ownership. A large number of them come back to the store once the legal issues get resolved and/or the new owner and GOG get a new deal together. Example: Ceville was removed last year due to an ownership change and it has recently returned to the store.

A fairly small number of games get removed and have not returned either due to legal issues (in which case they're often removed from sale from other stores as well), or due to either a change of heart towards GOG or DRM-free of the owner, or a change of ownership where GOG hasn't been yet able to renegotiate a deal to have the given games returned. Other times there are technical reasons games don't return.

There is only once that a lot of games were removed all at once and that was the entire Nordic catalogue of 35 or so games a few years ago which was due to a temporary inability of Nordic to be able to sell their games here on GOG while honouring pre-existing contractual obligations they had elsewhere from what we were told more or less, however once they were able to sort that out they returned all of their games back to GOG and have brought more here since.

So in a nutshell, no - GOG has not deleted a lot of its catalogue however games occasionally do get removed. There is a thread in the forums that tracks game removals and any details known about why they were removed, you might want to search for it and see if it has any useful info as well.

HTH
Besides, once you buy the game, you'll have access to it forever as long GOG exists.

Role-playing in Diablo: "My character's primary motivation is killing everything and picking up all the loot. But I started a couple other playthroughs with different characters whose motivations...are also to kill everything and get all the loot."

I had Realms of Arkania 1 + 2 in a games collection I bought on vacation in Germany. Never got into it because my german isn't that good.

So at one point I decided "Hey I've got this box of games, some of which are only in German. I should brush up my german by actually trying ot use it....I'll just install Der Clou (the clue)" *20 minutes later* "This is really text heavy...I think I'll go with something lighter. Das Schwarze Auge (German name for RoA) could be okay. Looks like a fairly simple old RPG, shouldn't be that h.....wh...I need to smalltalk with this shopkeeper? There's HOW MUCH TEXT? I think I'll spend more time with my dictionary than grinding this game....hey look over there"

Seems like a really in depth and revered series. I have got it on Gog now in English, but....still kinda intimidated.
