Will you be buying this?
Is kinda tempting, but not knowing the games that could come sucks

So, it's GOG as a subscription service? Where you don't even get to pick which old-ass games you want?

The intro price is low enough for me to bite. I don't mind giving it a go and it seems like a decent idea.

Nothing. Yet.
The games release one a month starting January.

These blind subscription services are terrible for consumers. It's the same as pre-ordering games, only with more risk involved. This service in particular seems pretty awful as well, they don't give a single example of a game that we can expect. It's literally giving them money because they said so.
Hard pass.

Is it just me, or is it a little suspicious that I can't find any information about the operating company "Super Villain Incorporated" other than a "super villain reality" webshow with website design exactly the same as Gamepump's site?
EDIT: Hmm... Looking at the cast list for Super Villain Incorporated, I'm seeing Andy Milder, Robert Bowling, Roger Cross, and Don McManus. If this is them, my suspicions have fallen quite a bit.

Interesting idea! I like that they will be offering DRM-Free versions of the games. I may end up subscribing for a year since the cost of entry is pretty reasonable and I highly support these types of legitimate business efforts to preserve and update classic games for modern hardware compatibility, although I am keeping expectations very low with respect to which games might actually be released.
I would hope they also maybe do some publishing and distribution through services like GOG after the initial reveals -- it would seem to make a lot of sense from a financial and preservation standpoint. Or maybe if they plan to launch their own storefront at some point?
