It may be a rights thing. Postal 2 is the one they have, so it's the one we got. Didn't the IP rights to Postal change hands multiple times between games? I dimly remember a Civvie rant to that effect.

    Yeah....

    I like GoG in general but they have a LONG history of "performative" bullshit and... yeah. At least one of those games is a pretty infamous DLC sink and the other ones I am familiar with are mostly "Yeah... the first game is horrifically mid but the second one is where it is at" and are the studios that leapt to have sales the moment they heard the news back when it was just Steam.

    I still think this is a net good (minus postal 2) but... I have a hard time seeing this as particularly altruistic. Which, actions and all, but still...
