Not to mention they are pretty inflexible with their pricing (though, to be fair, GoG has been doing more full priced games for a while now - still not what GoG is known for yet though I think).Īs for their serial # requirement, I think it is one of the 'easier' models to change to a DRM free mechanic - it uses the old fashioned serial number system (a hash coded serial number that is keyed to a specific formula, no server checks involved). We can hope for it to happen, but it all depends on Matrix Games I think and whether they feel it is worth it to break further out of the niche environment and go DRM free at the same time.įor people wanting some in depth videos on it I suggest watching Das24680 ( ) - he is quite informative with his let's playes of the original game + expansions, and is currently doing a 'How to play' series for DW:UĬarlosjuero: I don't see it coming to GoG - Slytherin Games/Matrix Games seem to be pretty content with their niche model (though it is, weirdly enough, promising that they are bringing DW:U to Steam - prior to this they have been purely published via the Matrix Games website/store).

Good time for new 4x fans to jump onboard (with much lower cost than those of us who bought the expansions one by one :p) Distant Worlds has been around for ages Universe just takes the formula and makes it slightly more palatable for the 'lay man' so to speak (improved tutorials, more information when making new games, etc).
