You either keep buying games and accept being dicked around with, or you immediately stop buying gog's. You can't have it both waysi am in the former camp, though I doubt many will join me......consumer responsibility is a dead ideal.

Why not both?

Seriously, what's the obstacle? What's stopping anyone from buying while still begrudging a very poorly done PR stunt?

/agree

To use it BG1 with BG1Tutu you need BG2 and BG2 ToB. And playing the original BG1 not within the BG2 DnD rules and infinity engine would be akin to masochism. So yeah ;)

I see not why gog has to be boycotted over this PR sillyness by em either. In my book, any new fan of Baldurs Gate 2 is a good fan. And if BG1 coerces them into checking out BG1Tutu , the Mods (weidu, g3 etc.) and BG2, then all the better.

So in this case i have to say, i don't care about GoG, i care about Baldurs Gate (although BG 1 is far inferior to BG 2)

BG1 far inferior to Bg2...???? It burns!, it burns!

BG1 is the old, class act...BG2 the younger, better looking funkster, but the original is still the best for me (probably because when i first played i had no idea what to expect and all i knew about it was from the back of the box) Although i think they have both held up remarkably well over the years.

I have to agree as well. People have every right to complain while still shopping here, just as they do with any other retailer. Of course, complaining is one thing; all this talk of "accept being dicked around with" and boycotts is just childish, way more childish than the prank was.

Everyone has a right to complain. Many people use it quite liberally.

@robobrien
Not inferior as in worse. Just that if you ever played BG1 in the BG2 engine (bg1tutu..) then you will know what i mean. The improvements in graphics, gameplay and tweaks done by bg1tutu are vastly superior to the original state.
BG1 was the first rpg i ever played and I would be equally inclined to agree, if i had not gone through the HELL of getting BG1Tutu to work right and see that it really does make a noticeable difference.
What gog should sell is BG2/Tob/BG1/BG1Tutu merged - because doing it yourself is likely going to ruin your evening, and not doing it is really masochistic ;P

Hey, at least you didn't make an account just today to say this.

I'm in this camp as well. I can't follow the logic that by buying a game, you would somehow accept poor PR...

A well-reasoned complaint / critique should help the powers-that-is to make better marketing moves in the future. In others words: Okay, GOG, we get it now. It wasn't appreciated at the time and please don't screw with the paying customers like that in the future.

Now that it's over, back to game stuff for me.

Because if you kep buying, they get to get away with the stunt without recourse.
