I love this from GOG. I already liked them because of their game conservation efforts, but now I like them even more.

They support free games. If only they supported free platforms to play them on...
GOG is a distributor and storefront. They aren't a developer, so it's not up to them to develop Linux versions of the games they sell.

i.e you are all a bunch of wankers
Hey, it included Postal 2 as well! (But also guilty, and not ashamed to admit it.)
I wouldn't want to meet a person who wanks to Postal 2, though playing is fine.

We are... Also, free stuff.
I clicked on the bundle because I was curious to see it and now I have a bunch of porn games I guess. I don't have an issue with porn games but I don't play porn games so now I have a bunch of trash cluttering my library.
I was able to kinda hide them but they are still there.
Huniepop is genuinely one of the better match 4 type games out there and has a bathing suit only mode if you are feeling adventurous.
None of them are even remotely close to the sort of games I enjoy, the porn part isn't the issue I just don't care for "dating" sims or puzzle games.

Hey, free games is free games.
I couldn't pass their capcha so I guess I'm a robot.
Self-awareness is the first step to sentience.
I also got like 10 capchas for 1 of the codes (just one after the other) then it threw an error anyway. I appreciate their gesture, but so far it's been like 30 minutes of wasted time with nothing to show for it.
Some countries banned Postal 2 so they can't give it to you if you live in, as a random example, Germany.
Congratulations on already living in the future they're protesting. Realistically they probably should have recognized this would be a problem and told you the specific error but their giveaway codes aren't really meant for this so whatever.
If you do live in a country like that you could, however, spend $70 on a year of Mullvad and be a Canadian as far as GOG knows or cares.
Maybe you should be doing that anyways, regardless of whether you want horny games and also Postal 2.

I want to buy more from GOG but my only gaming system I have is a Steam Deck. I know the native Linux stuff should work ok but u always have problems getting windows stuff to work. Either through Heroic Launcher or Proton. I must be doing something wrong. All the guides I find are just wrong or out of date.
Hei give this a try, it helped me a lot for a gog game at least (Tunic). https://github.com/moraroy/NonSteamLaunchers-On-Steam-Deck

And maybe ten of them will actually play any of the games.
Oh yeah I saw the list and am pretty sure I'm not even installing any of them, but claiming the bundle in solidarity
Did the same. Not sure, just by looking at the icon/thumbnail, that any of it was made for me. But am still proud to have them added to my account!
Apparently some of them are very good in their own right, telling a compelling and interesting story and not just being horny cash-grabs so I'm tempted to give them a shot.
I played the original Yu-No because of how it is the foundation upon which all modern visual novel games are built. That was a difficult experience and I do not recommend it to anyone not already very interested in the history of the genre, there is a lot of content there that is not for me.
But that was the game that made the industry say "oh shit, these things can be good, too".
Side-note: the modern rerelease of Yu-No has the more objectionable stuff stripped out, but then we've got to have the censorship discussion all over again.
Anyway. My point is this: I have also overlooked these games but might have to rethink that.
