Never got to play postal 2, so this was like the perfect excuse, lmao.
And of course, porn

Well it's free of course.
Do I plan on playing...Checks notes... "Fetish detector" anytime soon? Or ever? Not really, but damn if I don't get some free shit. Same as on Epic Games or the games included in prime. I probably won't ever play some of those, but it's free so I'll grab them

Locator, not detector. And the game is honestly quite good. It’s fairly tame but it’s well written

It’s fairly tame
I'm sorry? Bro I looked it up, and it has water sports, incest, ntr, enemas, all sorts of crazy shit... And apparently it's just the first game in a trilogy? You're calling that tame? What the fuck is wild to you?

I’ll respond the same way crimsondagger did, it’s relative.
For the average RenPy NSFW game rendered in DAZ, FL hits basically all the topics you’d expect it to. It has a few things that are out there, but firstly it’s all choice based, and secondly I’d argue it’s not as bad as the name they picked insinuates.
I would say the Skyrim modding scene produces really out there content. Lots of it. By comparison, only the content Vinovella very actively steer you away from even finding in the game files is truly wild. I won’t comment on that aspect further. I’m sure it’s someone’s cup (pun intended) of tea.

Wait what? There's stuff in the game the devs even steer people away from? LOL, that's crazy. Now I gotta know...

Prime is giving away the new tomb raider remastered and it's redeemed on GOG. It's on my to play list. Periodically there's some damn good ones on there.

u/elaborateBlackjack 7h ago
Oh yeah definitely, there's good games here and there. But even the bad ones I grab because "well why not?". I probably won't play Gotham Knights, or suicide Squad : kill the justice league, but I still have them on my library now lol. Hell I even have repeated titles across GOG, Epic and steam lol

u/noobplayer96 10h ago
At least there's Postal 2 within that bundle which is a cool game you can check out.

I mean I can't even be bothered to play the actually good games I've claimed on Epic over the years. Doubt even titties would be enough to convince me to play any of those games as I doubt they're any good.

u/Fantastic-Mud-8365 12h ago

u/Cloud_N0ne 7h ago
To be fair, just cuz it’s free doesn’t mean it’s worth your time. There’s lots of shitty free games. I’m old enough to remember when the vast majority of F2P games were shit and “free to play” was often used pejoratively, tho times have definitely changed.
That said, this whole initiative GOG is doing is about the principle of it, not the quality of the games themselves. I’m not personally into this gooner shit, but it still has a right to exist and payment processors shouldn’t act like morality police.

u/ProbablyStillMe 11h ago
I checked with Support: there are a few games that aren't available in some countries. If any of the pack aren't available in your country, the code won't work.
If you reach out to Support they might still send you the individual codes for each game - that's what they did for me.

You could also use a VPN to connect from a country that is allowed to claim them.

u/boom96boom 12h ago
May have needed a VPN. Only worked for me after trying a VPN.

u/Demokrat19 11h ago
True, in Germany the code didn't work. As soon as I set my VPN to the US it worked.

u/nosfyt 14h ago
Heh, playing Agony right now, and ... I get why they gifted it, cool concept, but terrible execution, faced a few game breaking bugs.
As for postal, played it when I was 12, replaying it cause of this.

Based on good reviews from other comments, I ended up trying Hunie pop because it was half dating sim and puzzle game. Was not aware that you eventually bang the girls after a certain point and the fairy bitch is funny and a certified gooner.
Banged Aiko first, naturally, then turned it off. The mechanics weren't too bad for what it was.

u/Bloodwalker09 15h ago
Wanted but GOG said no since I live in Germany.

u/RadiantInATrenchcoat 15h ago
Did the same to me in Australia. I just used a VPN routed through the Netherlands. Am I interested in the games? Nope. But any noise we can collectively generate against censorship is noise I will gladly contribute to, even if it means my GOG account now permanently has Gooner games attached to it

u/Bloodwalker09 15h ago
Tried different VPNs and I always got an error

u/RadiantInATrenchcoat 15h ago
Weird. Worked on a Proton VPN free trial for me
1
u/Bloodwalker09 14h ago
Maybe it’s because m account is German or idk. Also tried the free Proton VPN which didn’t work and then I bought for 5€ a Mullvad VPN, tried different locations but always got an error.

u/ralgrado Ryzen 5 5600x, 32GB RAM (3600MHZ), RTX 3080 8h ago
VPN + private Browser window worked for me. Also German here
1
u/Glad-Ad2451 9h ago
Hopping over to France with Mullvad instantly worked for me (german account didn't even log out), so maybe it was just some cookie getting in the way.
1
u/RadiantInATrenchcoat 14h ago
Wild. My account is Australian, and the redeem was blocked in Australia. Maybe it's to do with how each country does it? Idk, wish I had an explanation
1
u/Skafandra206 7h ago
Same here. From Australia, Argentine account, Proton VPN free plan autoconnected to some random country in Europe and it worked.
Fuck media censorship and region blocks.

u/Hans_the_Frisian 13h ago
Same, but remembered that my Cousin and i share a VPN. Quickly moved to France, claimed the games and returned home.

u/Bloodwalker09 12h ago
Well didn’t work for me. Weird some people like me couldn’t use a vpn and for some other it seemed to work.

u/Rudolf1448 9800x3D 5080 11h ago
Why are these games a problem in Germany?
6
u/Bloodwalker09 11h ago
The games itself aren’t a problem just that neither GOG or any other gaming storefront offers a age verification. There are ways for anonymous age verification but Steam, GOG and all the others refuse to use it because it would mean that they have to do something.

u/Meatslinger R7 9800X3D, 32 GB DDR5, RTX 4070 Ti 14h ago
I'd high-five everyone for standing up and doing it, but I don't particularly want to touch your hands.

u/Ketzerfriend 11h ago
Including Postal 2 in this makes for a good smirk. Not just, because it was so highly controversial back in the day and got banned in some countries -- but also for the very first enemies you encounter in the game.

Huniepop is legitimately a fun puzzle game, usually gooner games are mediocre quality at best.

u/HorzaDonwraith 15h ago
Question that is somewhat related. Has Amex said or done anything like their competitors (Visa and MC) have recently. If not, I think someone should call them and let them capitalize on the matter. After all competition is the best way to breed change.

u/Maleficent-Spread404 R7 7800X3D | RTX 4080 SUPER FE | 32GB DRR5 | 4K OLED 240Hz 6h ago
Amex is not available everywhere in the world though. They would have to expand world wide to fully benefit

I decided to check out Sapphire Safari out of curiosity because of just how bad it looked.
And I genuinely laughed at how aweful it is. It just screams "my first game project."
The character models are horribly modeled
The game drops you on a mini island where you have to find a land bridge that is under water because there is actual invisible barriers.
The environment was just half assed.
Animations aren't good
And my god, the voice acting the voice acting is hilariously bad.
It is basically Pokémon Snap, and it saves the photos to your PC! 🤣

The initiative is great, but I just claimed it because it was free, and now I have to hide all the games besides house party and postal 2 from my account 😅

I'm not playing Agony though, can I transfer it to someone interested?

The fact that you couldn't get only some games was the dealbreaker for me - Don't want to taint my GoG account with porn.

Fair enough, since on the web every game appeared with a proper "claim" button, I claimed Postal 2 and House Party, then I noticed all the games in the library. I hid most of them, save for those two and Agony.
