“It’s time for a warm-up before the Black Friday shopping spree,” GOG say. Possibly we’re in Hell. But some of the prices are good. Games in the wee sale include:
Blood: Fresh Supply - £2.49 (65% off) Cyberpunk 2077 - £24.99 (50% off) Disco Elysium - £17.49 (50% off) Divinity: Original Sin 2 - £11.99 (60% off) Horizon Zero Dawn - £20.04 (50% off) Pillars Of Eternity II: Deadfire - £7.49 (75% off) Planescape: Torment Enhanced Edition - £4.49 (70% off)
That Horizon discount is available on Steam right now too, mind. GOG’s sale will end on Monday at 2pm (6am Pacific). Yeah, lots of the games are old games that are often discounted, but doesn’t mean they’re not still good. And 50% off Cyberpunk, its biggest discount yet, would tempt me if I hadn’t bought it at launch. Cyberpunk is still wonky as heck and will likely never receive the fundamental changes it needs to become a great game. But it still has a lot of good stuff in there, and is better than many loudmouths make out. And as someone who grew up on trash cyberpunk and dystopian megacities, being able to walk around Night City is such a treat. Damn, it’s a looker. You can treat it as a ‘AAA’ walking simulator—a term I use with great affection. I have gigabytes upon gigabytes of tourist photos from my time there. Disco Elysium, ugh, sure, loads of people will unreservedly tell you that detective RPG is great. But do you want a game that’s just great? Tch, where’s the fun in a plain ol’ good time?
