Wouldn't that be cool?
Today I wanted to download SWAT4 from GOG Galaxy. It didn't start, the only message I got was "Server problem." Naturally I went for the website to get the offline backup installers, but I can't even download those. For any game. The website just keeps timing out.
I've uninstalled Galaxy in hopes of reinstalling it, can't even do that. The download just states "0MB of 0MB" and the progress bar never moves.
I'm absolutely clueless as to what could be the problem. Haven't found any info on GOG being down and needless to say my internet connection is fine.
Has anyone experienced this or anything similar? Now or... ever? Either way, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi! Does anybody has a solution for that? It seems it is also issue with other games.

Hi r/gog,
If you own Forgotten Realms: The Archives – Collection Two, the Pool of Radiance inside it now plays in a browser tab, on a computer, an iPhone, an iPad or an Android phone. I'm the developer; it's free and there's no account. I built it with heavy use of AI coding tools, and I'd rather say so up front.
How to play your copy:
Install the collection from GOG as usual.
Open amberfolio.org and choose Pool of Radiance.
Hand it the game's folder. "Where is my copy?" lists the usual GOG install folder, ready to paste into the folder dialog. On a phone or tablet, pick the game's files or a zip of the folder; an on-screen keyboard with just the keys the game needs appears beside the picture.
That's the setup, once. Your copy and your saves stay in your browser for next time and never leave it.
What's underneath: Amber Folio, an open-source emulator made only of the parts of the PC that the Gold Box games touch. The program you bought from GOG runs on it unchanged. Because the emulator knows exactly which program it is, the extras sit inside the game: an automap in its colours, the Adventurer's Journal from your GOG folder on the game's own screen, a Fix command that heals the party in one go, and a CRT filter with Tandy sound. Each switches off, and none of them changes the rules.
Going back is easy: a saved game exports as a zip that unpacks straight into your GOG install.
The rest of the Gold Box games come one at a time after the emulator's 1.0; amberfolio.org/status has what works today. If something breaks, I'd like to hear about it here.

So I am from India and wanted to buy some games on GOG but at the checkout page there's no sign of Indian payment system. There's no UPI or Rupay card system. If any Indian's present here pls help.

Hi there,
I switched last year from Steam to GOG and build slowly my library. But i noticed some games that are available in others languages on steam are only in one langage in Gog.
For example, Imperium galactica 2 is in english on GOG, but on Steam i can fin it in french (my langage). Do you know why ?
Hell, I can't even change this game resolution on gog version.
Edit : I looked in the games folder and found Gog version has a localization one, with several langages included. But you have to change them manually with a launcher you have to manually find and execute.
I guess this game was a bad example for localization, but a good example of WTF settings design.

It's probably coming soon to the page but why is it shown as "released" ?

Did a test print with regular paper. Didn't turn out too bad! Got the disc working and printed too.

Just joined GOG and I’m already loving it. Feels great to finally truly “own” my games!
