I was wondering, do You regret buying any of games (GOG games, ofc)? If so, why?

That question was sponsored by Me Getting Papers, Please At GOG '13 Winter Sale, Inc. ;-) I just don't get an idea of this game. It's no fun, reminds me an ordinary job where I have to be concentrated and find out, how a person tries to cheat. After 1,5hrs of playing it I'm just so disappointed.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if everyone posted Sacrifice? XD

On a serious note Fist Puncher because it doesn't work and it's kind of my doing. The GOG support team sent me a load of fix options but it's just too big of a pain in the ass to do all the updating and downloading they suggested so I'd rather I just never bought it.
Fez. I had high hopes for this game, but I got bored with it after 3 hours and never touched it again.

LOL that's for Licurg right? XD
Anyway, not possible, it's indeed an overlooked little gem (if you like rts).
Soulbringer, the game mechanics are just too odd for me.

Yes it is and I think offshoot enough to appeal to even people who aren't huge rts gamers.

Different people, different tastes, yada yada, but still I wonder why you don't like the game. I thought it was one of the best to come out this year, and a lot of people seem to agree. Should I let this person through, even though they obviously have forged papers, but will very likely die if I don't? Should I let this person through, because if I don't, that means less money for food for my family? What's wrong with this person, whose passport has the information written in crayons, and tries to pass it as authentic? These are only a few of the questions I asked myself while playing the game. And personally, I enjoyed going through their files, looking for anything suspicious.
So far, Syndicate. May give it another shot. Then again, the huge backlog means this can be ignored without missing any gaming time.

Maybe I haven't passed a point in game, where my decisions make any difference to them. I was the only one that was punished/granted after stopping people/letting them go through.

Or it's a game that is a simulator of a real job :-S
For me... I'd have to say SimCity 2000. Now I'm happy with this purchase but of all my purchases (of which there are few) This is my most disapointing... I forgot how bad the mechanics of this game were, not tellign me why people are leaving my town... the annoying music, the bad camera angles... all that...

all in all, it's a good game but my most disapointing purchase none the less :P
Alan Wake, it's got a nice atmosphere but I found the gameplay to be disappointingly limited. You essentially run down a tunnel then rhythm sequence dodge/attack waves of same looking enemies propelled by a plot that trys so hard to see cryptic it's practically non-existent. Alan Wake has a good reputation and I enjoyed it somewhat but it didn't live up to the hype and felt to me like a bit of a step backwards compared to survival horror games due to limited world. The combat is more complicated and that might be a saving grace (burn out darkness with flashlight, shoot with bullets to kill while monitoring bullets in chamber to reload or flashlight battery). Also, the plot feels like it's trying so hard to be some sort of Stephen King, Twin Peaks tribute it was hard for me to get into it (pretentious).
Deus Ex: Invisible War.

I sold my Xbox copy because it kinda sucked, and then I went and bought it on PC. I liked the atmosphere but ugh somehow it looks worse than DE1 and also the simplified gameplay in limited areas really hurts the game.

And let's not even get into the loading.
At least I have the original too.

At least you got Soulbringer to work. That thing is a beast to get functioning (I haven't done it yet).

I'm still fighting with sound tweaking on Beyond Good and Evil.
Painkiller.

Dull dull dull dull dull dull dull dull dull dull dull.

Least I didn't pay much for it.
Gobliiins, it's pretty much an instruction manual on how not to design an adventure game.
