Thanks a lot for the service. I know I probably won't get a reply on this, but seeing as to how I could have possibly acted like a tool on the previous post, I just want to say THANK YOU!
I'm mucho impressed with GOG actually, now that I'm more sober. Well actually I played Jagged Alliance today, and I'm really impressed that the game works so flawlessly without me needing to configure anything at all
Before I bought anything, my first impression of GOG was that it's an abandonware site looking to charge consumers for the games. Not that that's a bad thing, since games like Freespace 2 can't even be found on other abandonware sites. However, many apologies for that misconception - the first game I installed left a profound impression on me. It was fuss free, and no technical problems. In the past, setting up DOSBox with games was always a pain, so I was really really pleased that the game worked completely well without any bugs (so far)
Also, thanks for all the goodies that come with the games. I understand that GOG probably doesn't make much out of the games it provides. Firstly, the most expensive game costs only $9.99. Secondly, GOG has to pay for the monthly bandwidth of downloading (download speed was 200kbps for me. Very impressive, considering I'm from Asia)
It's difficult to not appreciate the tenacity and dedication that comes along to creating such a service. So, thanks once again GOG! Thanks for Jagged Alliance, and I look forward to buying more games here!
