Blizzard is delisting the OG Warcrafts from GOG, but GOG says it's gonna preserve them forever anyway, hands out a discount, and announces new policy for its preservation program to boot (www.pcgamer.com)

So it's wasted money because you personally already own these games.

Yeah, I said I will not. I didn't say no one should. I think it is great that GOG preserves them but the price is still to high for something from a scumbag company.

How does it work with the money GOG is charging, does Blizzard see anything of that? If not, then nice, makes it more worth to me to pay so GOG gets more funding.

If Blizzard does get a cut then GOG should give a rather hefty discount as a final "fuck you" to Blizzard. Because that's all they deserve.
