Title: GOG allowing you to take retail DRM keys to add onto your GOG Account
Post by: MysterD on Thursday, April 02, 2015, 04:39:15 PM
So, GOG is now allowing games w/ DRM-laced keys from retail (and some from digital places) to be added to your GOG account so you can get DRM-FREE versions of them:

For the curious...

My copy of STALKER: Call of Pripyat from the old Stardock Impulse days for Digital downloads worked + activated-up on GOG.
My retail boxed DVD copy of STALKER: Clear Sky activated up on GOG just fine.
My retail boxed DVD copy of STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl activated up on GOG just fine, also.

My Steam version's CD-Keys for Mount + Blade: Warband + With Fire & Sword did NOT activate on GOG.

I redeemed my copy of Shadow of Chernobyl this morning. Pretty cool. I have a retail box of Warband but they are very specifically letting you register the Russian version? Because that one didnt work for me.

Yeah, it looks like they're only accepting Russian + CIS keys for M&B: Warband + With Fire & Sword currently.
