alexandros050: Limbo is actually missing 3 patches compared to the other store...If it ever comes back they better update the game.
Any idea what was changed in those 3 patches, ie. their importance (specifically for GOG users who don't probably care for Steam-specific changes)?

At least back when I played Limbo, I didn't notice any problems with it so at least it didn't appear to be a broken game or anything. I am not 100% sure if I played the Humble Bundle or GOG version of the game, but it was a DRM-free version without any client...

They are only talking about "Improvements" and "minor bugfixes" in theit changelogs on Steam.

So yes, game still seems to be playable even without them which imo does only make it a little better.

Ice_Mage: After they delisted The Silent Age, all traces of it vanished from my profile page. As you can see from the attached screenshot, the Activity box in GOG Galaxy has also been wiped, although you can see in the Leaderboards box that I got 100% of achievements.
Damn, that sucks. Is that information also missing in your profile section on the GOG website? Or is it just missing on GOG Galaxy?

rea987: You are right, it looks like HB nuked the Linux and Mac builds from users accounts that I am unsure how legal it is. Currently only Steam has the unadvertised native Linux build. I confirm that it's the default version on Linux.

https://steamdb.info/app/48000/depots/

Edit: This is quite weird. Limbo had multiple Linux ports back then, earliest Linux port was a cheap Wine wrapped port which wasn't performing well. Then another porter tasked to make a proper native port which is probably what Steam also offers.

I checked my HB library to see if other delisted Linux ports are still there. Dear Esther (standalone Source version) and Torchlight had HB exclusive Linux ports provided during few of HB sales of old. These builds can no longer be purchased, but it looks like they are still in the library of the users. So, Dear Esther and Torchlight's delisted Linux builds are still in users' libraries, but Limbo's native Linux build is on Steam as an unadvertised build, yet removed from HB users' libraries. Why?
Perhaps it was broken on current linux distros due to no maintenance, so they decided to remove it rather than having users complaining.

Testiclides: Wait, that happens? Achievements for delisted games are no longer visible on my profile?

Does not seem to be the case with all delistings. I just checked "Tales of the Borderlands" and it is still all there for me - including activity feed from friends.

Already have Limbo at GOG, but such a great discount for INSIDE, that I grabbed it here as well, despite having gotten it free from Epic some time ago, in their weekly freebies. Having a GOG installer saves me some mucking around, etc.

Do you know if the versions of Limbo and Inside that Epic gave away are more recent than what GOG has?

Inside is supposed to be up to date.

Thanks. Epic's Limbo has a version 1.0.0.1, but that could be a default that they never updated. In the file header, there is a build date of:

These are old Humble Indie Bundle builds, many of them require user tinkering to work properly, such as Torchlight. Limbo is the only one (to my knowledge) to whose Linux and Max builds were completely removed from user library at HB.

Well, already had both of them over on Steam, and Limbo here, but I went ahead and grabbed INside on sale because I have a sneaking suspicion that anything Epic Games is in any way involved in is going to be an absolute mess and Steam will force whatever $&%^ery they pull on you in an "updatge" so getting the current GOG version is the only way to keep from being Borderlandsed.

Inside is currently on sale at 90% off.
Thank you for letting us know, GOG.
Thank you for pointing this out, Mortius1. This was the first time I managed to grab a to-be-delisted game. Sadly I have not noticed many parting discounts these last few years.

drm-sck: If only they could implement something like this, or just a notification system for the games leaving the store.

Thanks for that link.

Is there a way to get notified about new posts in that topic? I literally only found out gog had forums a minute ago, and I'm not seekng a button to follow a thread.

Reminder delisting date approaches!

And it's not pinned for some reason...

I hope they return though.

I'm not aware of a notification function in this forum, but you can favorite the thread. There's a checkbox at the top right that says "This is my favorite topic." Then your favorites will always appear at the top of the forum, making them easier to keep track of.
