Well I’ll Be Damned: GOG Gets Privateer II: The Darkening (also 50% Off All Wing Commander Games)

I’ve said a lot about Privateer II: The Darkening in my time, most of it negative. Compared to the original Privateer (and many other open worldy spacey games), it’s absolute bollocks, but it does have an interesting place in the history of space gaming, with its exceptional cast of actors and its polarizing gameplay (people seem to love or hate it, there’s little in-between). Welp, now you can see what all the hubbub is about, bub, because GOG now has the game for only $5.99.

In celebration (I think? What?) for Privateer II being released, they’re also having a promo on all of their other Wing Commander games, so jump on it if you don’t already have ’em!
