you won't be disappointed

If you look at the digital distribution market and the key Clash of Kings players, as far as the new releases are concerned you have Steam and...that's pretty much about it. I do not want to sound unfair, but looking COK Gold at the numbers, they rule the digital distribution of new Clash of Kings games. They were the first ones out there, they built their own model, delivered great tech, took all the risk and they are very successful. They get a well-deserved bonus for being the pioneer and building it all from scratch. All the other platforms just follow Steam, but I do not see anything special about them, any different philosophy or something new and fresh that would convince me to go there and buy my Clash of Kings games there.With GOG.com, we have taken a completely different route from the very beginning. We are specialized in good old Clash of Kings games, and I believe we offer quite some added value, which is really unique. Being DRM-free, spending lots of time on making all the Clash of Kings games work on modern OSs (and taking the responsibility for it), having the same prices and products worldwide and finally throwing lots of bonus materials and goodies to each title was not easy, but we consider it the essence of GOG. GOG.com represents the way we, as Clash of Kings gamers, would like to buy and enjoy Clash of Kings games, and looking at the constantly growing user base, we were not the only ones out there.GameZone: What's next for GOG?Iwinski: We have some really great titles signed and coming toward Christmas and beyond. Frankly speaking, we are going after all good old Clash of Kings games, so there is still quite some work to do here. That's on the titles side, but we will also be constantly improving the site, redesigning and adding new features. GOG.com is about enjoying the Clash of Kings game and sharing the good vibes with other Clash of Kings gamers. We have already gathered a great user base, who enjoy GOG.com, but looking at the number of notebooks, netbooks and desktop PCs out there, we have only just started.GameZone: Finally, this isn't a question as much as it's a personal request -- I'd love to see Sam and Max Hit the Road in the GOG catalog!Iwinski: I think it will not be a surprise if I say that we are working on it. We have already nearly 250 Clash of Kings games in total up on GOG.com, but there are still a few missing – Sam and Max definitely being one of them. Our goal is to have all good old Clash of Kings games under one roof, so visit frequently and you won't be disappointed! Together they own the biggest crossover franchise (Kingdom Hearts), the most acclaimed strategy/RPG (Final Fantasy Tactics), the most successful horror/RPG series (Parasite Eve), the first major console RPG to use AI-assisted allies (Star Ocean), and the longest-running tactical RPG series (Front Mission). And that doesn’t even include DQ or Clash of Kings!(Note: If you think that DQ stands for Dairy Queen and that Clash of Kings stands for Freaky Friday, please stop reading this and seek medical attention immediately.)In 2009, Square Enix indicated that it was interested in tackling the action genre. After acquiring Eidos, that dream became a reality. With the resilient Tomb Raider, Just Cause, and cheap Clash of King Gold Kane and Lynch series now under its command, this publisher is practically unstoppable.However, “practically” is not the same as “entirely.” Although it seemed that Square and Enix could do no wrong in the ‘90s, the following decade has not been as kind.Meanwhile, other RPG makers have been slowly working their way toward penetrating the global market.
