This is one of those games that flew under the radar, but was a ton of fun. If GOG comes out with this title Iwill snap it up immediately.

We still have the wanted list? How the... I haven't seen THAT since the beta!

Well it's hidden, since it does not actually have any purpose :D

I'm a big fan of Raven's old games, especially Hexen, and have boxed copies of a few of their games. MageSlayer was pretty cool, and the cheat to go into first-person view was really fun to mess around with.

Wouldn't mind seeing this on GOG, but my hard copy isn't going anywhere. I still need to mount the iso in Daemon Tools when I want to play. Stopped running games off of the drive years ago, you know? :)

It does too, it keeps these threads from being made.

...you can tell the useless wishlist is working, since this thread doesn't exist. -_-;

Well, new folks don't see it anymore. When I first came to GOG, I found it right away. I don't recall making a post like this, in fact, while there were a few, I don't recall nearly so many until GOG left beta. But perhaps it's just a sign of GOG growing ever faster, which is a good thing at the core of it.

The point is, it's full of nonsense and duplicate entries. Besides that, I doubt the GOG staff will be any more or less likely to consider any games with less than 50 votes, and for the games that are in the top 20, I'm quite sure they want to get the rights to sell them here as much as any of us.

In fact, I'm sure that, ideally, they'd like to have the rights to every applicable game, and would like to release all of them at some point, wishlist or no wishlist.

People can either try to open discussion on a game that's not on GOG, or they can go to the wishlist, click on the name of a game, and silently hope that it shows up on GOG one day, without daring to bring it up or else being referred to the wishlist. Honestly, it seems a bit silly, and the robotic responses of people making posts with nothing productive or useful to say, only posting a link to the wishlist, is about as welcome as spam and half as helpful if you ask me.

I doubt GOG considers the wishlist at all below the top 20 entries or so. I'm all for discussion about specific games, but the original post expressed little of this (and actually he/she did a better job than most of at least articulating something besides the name of the game), just a desire to buy a particular game. Adding a checkmark to a wishlist does as much good in this case.

I'm not picking on the OP per se, or trying not to, they did what dozens of people do every week. But it doesn't add to discussion, except for a rehash of the same discussion you and I are having right now. It didn't add links to the Wikipedia page about the game, or even describe why it was an often overlooked gem of a game. Hell, I don't even know the genre from reading it, who published it, or when. A useful discussion doesn't require an encyclopedic listing of all the former items, but it's usually going to require more than "hey, this game is great, I wish it was on GOG, I'd so buy it."
