sorted byNo, the money goes straight to the company that put the developers though about 9 months of continuous crunch.
Just don't buy Crysis after buying the computer as it still won't be able to run that
GOG.com (formerly Good Old Games) is a digital distribution platform for video games and films. It is operated by GOG sp. z o.o., a wholly owned subsidiary of CD Projekt
Yes.
CDPR mismanaged Cyberpunk's development so badly that the company has spent a massive chunk of the past year in varying levels of crunch, making it entirely mandatory since September. Full time, six days a week or you lose your job. Not good.
Not that Epic is any better.
But imho the whole 'give the money to the Devs' thing is irrelevant unless you're dealing with Indies, or at least privately held companies. It's not worth anyone's time and energy to give directly to one company's shareholders over another.
But DRM-free is good.
Why not pay full price £49.90 if you really believe your supporting the devs, or does CDPR support buying with VPN?
steam example below:
"You agree that you will not use IP proxying or other methods to disguise the place of your residence, whether to circumvent geographical restrictions on game content, to purchase at pricing not applicable to your geography, or for any other purpose. If you do this, Valve may terminate your access to your Account.": from Subscriber Agreement
Free vpn are dangerous
BTW. Love the stories people tell themselves of supporting the devs while blatantly committing fraud on the same company they claim to support.
Yeh half the money. Dont say you support developers when you're willing to undercut them at the price that is reasonable for a brand new game for the UK
Perhaps this helps.
It isn't only down to mismanagement. Video games have lots of R&D, stuff doesn't work and needs to be scrapped etc. It's very very hard to make an estimate for a release date. Yet you do need a release date to start driving up hype, presales, merch etc, plus to let people know that the game is actually coming out and it isn't vaporware.
Thus it is nearly impossible not to have some crunch here and there for such a huge game. I know some companies have zero crunch, but they are the exception. Plus, people very often work overtime willingly because their stuff doesn't work and they don't wanna go home until they figure it out, out of stubbornness if nothing else. It's just the nature of the beast. I don't know a single game developer that has never done any crunch or some overtime here and there. And crunch will never go away in game development. Things can break in the last minute when you were not expecting it, and you might need to fix something asap. Especially for games with so many systems and huge complexity.
Not saying there hasn't been any mismanagement, though, they have had too many delays at this point, so their estimates were way off. But again, it's very difficult to estimate. (edited)
How do you think we can afford a high end pc? save money where you can.
You're salty because of missed opportunity
Worst could happen I will loose £18. Don't think I will loose my sleep over it.I'll keep you updated
Yes, use urban vpn but uninstall once used,
Devs should probably start reading their contracts before signing. This "crunch" thing has been farted around the web for a decade now.
You’re distracting and unnecessary!
Sorry couldn’t help myself
That £20 just evaporating into the ether is it?
Strange you say that as I have spoken directly with GoG customer services over the past 5+ years for various reasons and VPN purchases haven't been an issue.
They advised me to use a VPN when I worked in Germany as some games are censored.
I have received refunds for multiple purchases from Russia, Germany, Argentina, Chile and the UK to date.
Having a browse through the GoG forums I cant find a single thread stating anyone has ever been banned. Do you have the source of this ban you mentioned?
Its a strange one as I see more threads on the GoG forum discussing cheapest regions on a monthly basis than negative VPN discussions.
Furthermore once purchased and downloaded, due to the games being DRM free, those files are yours therefore you can keep/install that game without access to your account an infinite amount of time. (For those unaware what DRM free feels like) (edited)
Haha. Fraud is better than theft. Completely agree.
Or from a different perspective... £20 as opposed to nothing.
If I were to offer you £20 for something you sell at varying prices (including £20) across the globe despite it not costing you any extra... Or alternatively paying you nothing... Which of the two will help put food on your table?
Even if one were to think of the bandwidth costs at full AWS rates, which CDPR most certainly do not pay, and the card payment fees which will be pennies, the cost of selling additional copies via GOG is negligible in the face of £18.65.
And there's no way in hell I can drop £50 on a game right now. One can reasonably assume many are in the same boat.
£20 now of which CDPR get the vast majority, or £10 when it eventually goes on Steam sale which iirc is how much I paid for Witcher 3, a big chunk of which will go to Valve.
Which is better for the devs?
Like I said it's called calculated risk. You're so cocksure people will get banned; it's not that certain in the slightest. Indeed this is a HotUKDeals.sanctionned deal. You can be a doom monger as much as you like mate but my discounted games are working out great for me.
