Also Whispering Willow and Last Day of June which aren't exhibited in the above photo. About New Vegas:
 
So I get an occasional notification from Playnite whenever a new free game is added to some of the free game depots offered by the various services, or just routinely as a reminder, but did you guys know that Quake II RTX (2019) was added to GoG's free games? I just found out when I visited the page:

For those of you who never checked it out, know that Gwent is also on there.

Yet again I'm reminded that Playnite is the shit:

Terroir is a freebie on GOG.com

"Terroir is a 3D tile-based tycoon game where you manage your very own vineyard. In Terroir, you grow a variety of different grape varietals, craft your wine, and expand and manage your Estate. You'll also have to deal with factors such as weather and random events, which can either make or break your business."

Wow.

Apparently, you've been able to download Bungie's first 3 FPSes for free for the past 17 years

"Did you know that Halo and Destiny creator Bungie's classic FPS trilogy, Marathon, has been free and open source since 2005? I sure didn't when I shelled out cash for them on the Xbox Live Arcade in 2008 like some kind of chump!

We have the Aleph One(opens in new tab) open source engine to thank for Marathon with no money down. Similar to how id's openness with Doom allowed modding-friendly source ports like (G)ZDoom(opens in new tab), Bungie released the source code for the Marathon Trilogy back in 2000, facilitating the creation of Aleph One.

In an added treat, Bungie allowed free distribution of the official Marathon campaigns themselves just five years later. If you want to access Doom's foundational campaigns or phenomenal modding community, you're still going to need a paid copy of one of the game's many releases."
