Can’t beat the price of free. No parts of the game are missing, just for all of you patient folks.

Quick note: It is a remaster of the original game with the base game and the DLC expansions that were released for it, visual updates and a higher level cap and possible other tweaks. Some reports of stuttering and poor performance.

      Ok so how do you download the backup installer without an internet connection?

        I never said you could, so that’s irrelevant. Don’t move the goalposts.

        And to be fair, neither Steam nor Epic even allows you to download an offliner installer; GOG does.

          `So it doesn’t require the EGS Launcher? It doesn’t require any form of Internet connection to install, launch, or play?

          With all due respect, if the answer is “it does” to either one of those questions, then that’s still a very strong form of DRM.`

          Guess that GOG is a very strong form of DRM

            Not at all.

            • GOG does not requires its launcher to install, launch, or play a game.
            • GOG does not require an Internet connection to install, launch, or play a game.

            Of course you require an Internet connection to download the offline installer. How the hell do you expect to get it otherwise? For them to ship a disk to you? In 2023? As awesome as that would be, that’s funny.

            In any case, downloading it isn’t DRM; it’s no different than having to go to the store to pick up an item. Lol.

              You’re the one who said that needing an internet connection to be able to install a game is a strong form of DRM, not me 🤷 But now that I point out it applies to your store of choice too then the goalpost sure is moving quick!

                I did say that. You only need an Internet connection download the offline installer (because how else are you gonna get it). Once you have the installer, though, you can install the game completely offline anytime you want.

                I never contradicted myself; I was being very clear. You’re just being nitpicky and shifting the goalposts repeatedly.

                  Yeah, you were very clear that needing the internet to install a game is DRM, so as I said, only physical media is DRM free so I don’t know why you’re arguing about PC gaming since you can only play console games.
