GOG

After grabbing #Myst lately as a good @gog deal I added it to my @lutris library and wanted to play it. I played it last time in 1994 and had good memories. Of course it installed @scummvm and then I wanted to start it. But nothing happened. It didn't start.

Then I installed scummvm via flatpack and there it runs without a problem. I think something's missing in the Lutris starter. Searched a bit and it seems some libraries are missing.

As you can see in the screenshot, all it says after pressing the post button is "Please wait. Processing...". It never ever proceeds past this point, no matter what web browser I use. I've tried all the browsers I use: LibreWolf, Mullvad, Floorp, Firefox and Brave. None of them let me post on the community forums. I tried this 2 or 3 days ago too; same problem. Has anyone else run into this issue?

April 27th 2000, Breath of Fire IV first captured hearts as one of Capcom’s most beloved RPGs. 25 years later, it returns – revived by popular demand and fully updated for modern PCs, this iconic classic is now available DRM-free on GOG!

The game joins the GOG Preservation Program with essential upgrades: our enhanced version is fully optimized for modern systems, with Windows 10 and 11 compatibility. Players can enjoy both English and Japanese localizations, along with improved graphics powered by an upgraded DirectX renderer, new display options like Windowed Mode, V-Sync, Anti-Aliasing and refined gamma correction for better visuals. The audio engine has also been upgraded, restoring missing environmental sounds and adding new configuration options.

This is the ultimate way to experience Breath of Fire IV like never before – now, to celebrate on its silver anniversary, and for years to come!

In Amerzone: The Explorer's Legacy (1999), you are a journalist summoned by an aged explorer who has been "branded" with questionable credibility for over 50 years. The old explorer's tale tells of traveling to the mysterious Central American country, called Amerzone. His story claims that the large egg that he brought back was associated with native Indian tribal beliefs and rituals involving the proliferation of great white birds that fly continuously from the time that they are born and never land seems incredible. But curiosity and the opportunity for a good story will probably get the best of you...

I received this Prince of Persia discount code that I don't intend to use. Comment when it is used so others know it's gone.

Every effort counts, and we know that together, this is just the beginning!

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

For an indie game made by a small team, it had quite a number of GOG wishlist requests, and now it's out.

There's a lot of review bombing by people who don't own the game, likely coming from the likes of Kiwi Farms and 4chan waging their culture war.
