Frank_Booth: Is there a reason for this?
Well GOG has the strictest curation of any digital game store...

ussnorway: speaking as some one that stuggled not to fall asleep watching this years triple_i promo added with the now infamous Cyperpunk

then add in the current Steam [redo their code to block Gog + all games MUST be released first on Steam before going anywhere else or will be banned] policy

yes its not a major shock that Gog doesn't matter as much as past years
Don't think that's a policy they have?
Woah, nice joke!

You can't say that with some of the games we've gotten here, even discounting the absolute gutter trash.

Frank_Booth: I haven't found a thread about this, but is it just me or has GOG been releasing less games for a year or so.

Timboli: Just you I think.
Well, fortunately user gogtrial34987 posted a statistic here that shows that there have been fewer games released so far this year than in the previous two years in the same period. So I'm probably not entirely wrong.

SultanOfSuave: Unfortunately, I don't have such a figure for you. The closest thing I have is the generic annual "sales of goods and materials" figure, pg 36, (i.e. games sold) which went down by 13.9% from a recorded PLN 168,126K to PLN 144,716K. CDP claims this is primarily due to a big ticket title Cyperpunk: Phantom Liberty boosting sales in its comparative year and the relative weakening of the PLN to the EUR in its contemporary year, rather than a reduction in user interest. But this number and information isn't all that useful or qualitative, sorry. But it's all I've got.
Interesting, thanks for the link.

Well you did call it a drought and it definitely hasn't been that, and they may make up for any shortfall in the coming months. So for now, I'd just see it as a temporary lessening of small proportion.

They have been pushing their big promotions, and I guess could have been spending a lot more time on those, with a limited number of staff addressing other things. Perhaps they are even spending more time on keeping games up-to-date to make their Game Preservation claim more valid.
