One wishes someday GOG will be able to sell No One Lives Forever 1 & 2. Some years ago they tried and the shareholders were too lazy to even respond to their proposal.

More capcom games on gog the better imo, especially when they had started randomly adding drm to some of their older titles on steam
Hope we get DMC5 on gog too, just picked up HD collection as wasn't a big fan of 4, with dmc3 being my favourite and first one I ever played :)
I know what I'm going to be playing today

In case anyone is confused about what "preservation" means to GOG, have a look at Leisure Suit Larry on Steam:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/231910/Leisure_Suit_Larry_in_the_Land_of_the_Lounge_Lizards_Reloaded/
I'm not sure why it was de-listed on Steam, but note how there are MacOS and Linux versions. Now look at it on GOG:
https://www.gog.com/en/game/leisure_suit_larry_reloaded
Only the Windows version is available. Maybe because they made some nice improvements in it, that they didn't want to do on the other platforms? Well, no, they didn't actually do anything but testing:
What improvements we made to this game:
Validated stability.
Verified compatibility with Windows 10 and 11.
So "preservation" in this case means dropping already existing platform support. At least they package DOSBox for Linux for others, like Castles and Tex Murphy...

There was never a Linux or macOS release of Reloaded:

Although there is a native Linux port, it is still not available here on GoG for some reason, just like many other existing Linux ports of games sold here.
