EDIT: Whoops, didn't mean to put quote marks on my subject above.
"The virtual landslide of great, highly-desired games (since Disney came aboard) has been interesting"
From what I recall (my memory could be wrong), much of 2013 - 2014(pre-Disney) was pretty dry in respect to GOG releasing highly-desired games (of course that's a relative term; I mean compared to the past few months), and perhaps that was the high point of complaints like "where are the Good Old Games?" since for some it felt like GOG was only interested in indies. Mid-2011 had EA and late-2011 had Squeenix, but afterwards things seemed to be "dying" for a period of time (at least towards late 2012 or maybe early 2013, since Activision, Ubisoft, and co. stopped showing interest; we still haven't gotten Activision "back", and we need the final Impressions game!).
Yet since Disney hopped aboard (though there was a big gap between 6-releases days - Oct. and Jan I think), the waves of great, highly-desired games has just kept coming.
And well, http://vocaroo.com/i/s1FpiHE540KX
Makes me wonder if we can thank Disney for showing other pubs GOG is worth their time, or if other things behind the scenes just fell into place, or what happened.
