Alright. Mission accomplished. Now I can finally figure out why everyone loves this game so much.

Listen to this man.

After that little 'stunt' they pulled, I will never give GOG money again; just on sheer principle.

You somehow have the video in the hyperlink, so I can't watch it from here. "

Use this guide instead, works fantastic. "

Just wondering, has anyone been able to confirm if the mods work with this version?

Great. Now I just need a chance to download it.

Kinda how I feel. "

" @Noodles:@ajamafalous:  I don't get this attitude. People couldn't access games for 3 days (omgomgomg), GOG apologised and has come back better than ever with some of the best PC RPGs ever made. If their stunt should make you suspicious of anything, it's DRM sites like Steam that can shut down and are not obligated to give you access to the games you have bought. It was a good troll, time to move on. "

Can we not turn this thread into a debate over gog.
 
Planescape: Torment is finally available commercially for the first time in years, in an easily downloadable and installable format. It's pretty much the best written cRPG ever. If all the bitching puts off any potential new players, you'll be doing them a serious disservice.

I'm going to buy Planescape Torment most definitely, although I probably won't bother with the graphics mods for the sake of nostalgia. It was easily one of my favourite PC games of the '90s and I'm curious to see how well it holds up.

Damn. Just found out I had won a free game on gog after I bought it. Since there's nothing else I want, does someone else want the code?

Perhaps it's just a European thing, but Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale and Planescape Torment, etc, have all been re-released numerous times, one of which was very recently. I picked it up a new version just a few months ago for £10 just to replace my old multi-disc, duel case version. "

you guys do realize that since they are DRM free, you can just burn them on a disc and have them forever? it's a damn slight better than steam. "

The ip rights to those games have been so messed up for so long I have to wonder if those aren't bootlegs. Or maybe the licensing is less messed up in the EU. "

Has anyone ever managed to do an evil playthrough of the game? I find the writing and characters are so good it's incredibly hard to be cruel.

WHOA.
 
HEY GUYS.  YOU LIKE PC RPGS?  DON'T MIND OLD?  GO BUY IT.  NOW.
 
Just keep in mind it's more story based than most PC RPGs, but that's okay cuz the writing is AMAZING for a game.

  Also, to any people who haven't played Planescape, wait for it to come out on Steam. I wouldn't be surprised to see it pop up in the next week or so. "

My copy is downloading. God I love this game. If GOG keeps this up I'm not going to be able to afford Christmas gifts. With so many classic RPGs to play though I may not care.

I love this game but haven't been able to play since I lost my original copy some time ago so I was super happy when I saw this.  
 
However this is my first time using gog.com and they can literally go fuck themselves, I've been trying to get a download of the installer that isn't corrupted for the last 3 hours and despite following all their support instructions it's done exactly nothing. Their contact support page hangs for nearly 10 minutes before timing out so I can't even contact them for more help.  
 
Seriously, fuck them.

OMFG I've been looking for this game for a long time.  Now I can finally play it and see what I've been missing!

Still havent forgive gog.com completly. But I couldnt resist picking this title up, been hoping for them to release this game and working in Windows 7 64 bit.

@amir90:

If you still have the Golden Sphere hang onto it until the end of the game and max out your WIS.

@amir90: YOU FOOL!! It's a very, very big difference in the game. I would highly suggest playing again while maxing wisdom and holding on to the sphere. If you want either complete story resolution or to have a maximally powerful character, you need to keep the sphere.

I already picked up the Fallout games on steam.  That fills this week's quota for purchasing old games that I'll probably never actually play.

@amir90: Oh, well, you're good, man. Just grab it off his corpse. If you haven't moved on to certain section of the game, you can still run back to the village and grab it.

Fuck! I knew there was something funky about that sphere. I just thought I found it in such a non chalant way, that it wasnt THAT important. I guess that is the problem with balancing using guides/trying to play without help. Baaah. I am pretty good on stats so far, 21 on INT with items, 18 WIS, 16 cha (got "fixed" several times, which helped me" Not sure I want to start over again, I mean, I might read a dialog to fast and make the wrong choice (no way in hell I am reading the first 10 hours +++ at book reading speed). Btw is this why : SPOILER AHEAD .... Pharod got killed by the shadows? I haven't run back to check his corpse just yet.

WIS is important to dialogue options and understanding what's really going on. It also increases the amount of xp you get from everything. So I would suggesting making it your priority. It's not like the combat is difficult anyway.

great fucking game

played it a least 3 times, which is a big deal for an story driven rpg
