Has anyone else been getting random games added to their library recently? About an hour ago I noticed that several games have been added to my library and no idea why because I definitely didn’t purchase them and I never got emails about them.
Some of the random games that were added was the Konami Collector’s Series that contains the original Castlevania and Contra games, Hitman: Absolution, Eye of the Beholder (1,2, and 3 were all added) and also Postal and Postal 2.
None of those except the Konami ones are even ones I would have claimed if they were randomly free offers in the newsletter so WTF, GOG?
On a different note: Eye of the Beholder 1, 2 and 3? Niiiiiice. I wasn’t a huge fan of 1 and 3, but I don’t know how many hours I spent getting through EotB2 back in the early 90s.
Probably should have mentioned I checked that. The invoices show they were all added in the last month but nothing about the payment method. I did see something like that once before when they credited me a replacement game for one I had pre-ordered that was cancelled, but that definitely doesn’t apply in this case. I did finally hear back from support and they’re as confused by it as I am because the billing system’s version of the invoices is missing information too! I get keep them though. Guess I have to at least play them once now
Also need to save up to eventually buy the Metal Gear games that were added recently.
Mystery solved! I forgot that last year I had contacted support and asked them if they could merge mine and Clawdia’s libraries because she was deceased and it was a pain in the ass to switch between accounts. They just finally merged them. The payment info didn’t carry over for “privacy and security” reasons. Hence the broken invoices.
I just assumed they had decided not to merge them. No, it just took them 13 months to do it
That’s where most of them came from. The only one not accounted for is the Konami Collector’s Series one.
June of 2019. There was a global announcement pinned to the top of the board for awhile. Considering the number of people who still ask about her death I’m guessing a lot of people missed seeing it though.
