BleepBl00p: I dont know which curation team set it up but its a complete joke. More than half of the games there have recieved terrible ratings from GOGers and the gaming community in general.

Games like Frostpunk, Dragon Age, Kingdom come, ELEX, Witcher 2, Doom 3 and worst of all, Pillars of Eternity I & II.

I dont see the point of tagging them classics when they will all be long forgotten in 10 years. The actual classics are not even named as such, they are merely 'good old games'.

BleepBl00p: @HereForTheBeer I think you're missing the point. Actual classics all boast undeniable qualities, whether you enjoy them or not is up to you. Fallout, Arcanum, BG and PST all have these qualities. These games shine despite their flaws. Same couldnt be said of DAO.

It really seems like we arent arguing about the same thing here so I dont know what to reply. Your main argument is that enjoyment is subjective, but subjective enjoyment isnt what defines a classic.

@xSingh Your comment fails to demonstrate how DAO deserves being called a classic. It seems like people are unable to support their argument so they try to attack mine instead. Typical 'prove that you're right or you're wrong' comment here. Also a top 100 RPG list is bound to be a complete joke since there are so few good RPGs avail most of these lists get filled with games that either arent good or arent even RPGs.

As for Doom 3, you cant call a game a classic just because the devs made some tech improvements. That sound and lighting are nothing but gimmicks in a video game and pretty much everything else about the game sucks. Once again historically important =/= classic.

My complaint is more about GOG disrespecting its customers by promoting some of the worst games ever created as classics. I fear for our future as a society.

@Linko Its more like 'I enjoyed it years ago and now felt like replaying it, thus it is a classic' is not a fact, but an opinion. Let's remember this, as it seems to be fading away.

@idbeholdME Care to elaborate? I would say that its everyone else that is trying to dismiss objective flaws by calling them opinions. Everyone is trying to avoid delving into an objective and critical analysis in fear of being wrong. Its one of the main reason why games are getting worse, any form of criticism is an opinion.

@drewpants Its crazy how illiterate some native English speakers can be. I think you completely misread my post. DAO can be enjoyed, just like Mc Donalds can be enjoyed, but dont try to claim that DAO is some AAA Angus.
