You know , i hate when you are not including the first Pillars of Eternity game in the same weekend deal as the second one .

It's the gamedevs / publishers who set prices, not GOG. Someone broke down how the process works for Steam, which is also applicable here.

Fixed link, thank you joveian.

what generous discounts for poe2 while they're 70%+ off on steam. obsidian edition for 15 eur (or 13.5 if you have the first one), here it's 20 for just the base game. joke.

Is it just me or does it seem like the new Leisure Suit Larry games are on sale rather frequently.

Every 1-2 months.

You link isn't quite right, fixed it in the quote (it is to the last message, rest of the thread is useless). IIRC from links posted in previous discussions, GOG doesn't have the equivalent of self administered sales on Steam. My impression of how it works on GOG is that publishers or developers set minimum sale prices but GOG doesn't necessarily sell them at that amount when they go on sale and GOG determines when they go on sale at least most of the time (some specifics are likely negotiable in the contract for particular games). Hopefully someone will have a link describing how it works on GOG.

The list of discounted games look good, maybe because I'm into factory/city building games. I wonder which one's better, Big Pharma, Project Hospital or Production Line. They're desperate. Everyone know the game suck and they cut the price often but no one bite the bait.

At the bottom of that post there's a link to a post from Stardock comparing retail to Steam. They mention Gog as an something they wouldn't use because of issues with knowing how many units were actually sold. I wonder if that's been fixed after that post was written.

I vaguely remember someone mentioning it was actually GOG who asks dev/publisher if they want a game to go on sale during X sales event (would explain why certain games or game in a bundle do or dont appear in a sale), no idea about sale prices thought. One additional comment though -- ever notice certain games go on sale roughly same time on both GOG and that other place i wont name? (the discount is similar too). Cant be a coincidence (suspect dev/publisher determine when a game goes on sale). Or i could be completely wrong.

I think most games on GOG have analytics these days and only a few let you "opt out" (however, I suspect even most of those send the analytics ping before you have the option). However, with some pirate sites offering what I'd guess is an exact copy of the GOG download that might not be at all reliable. Hopefully few publishers are outright thieves like Atari (Frontier had the same issue with RCT3), but developers not trusting the publisher should be easy to solve if GOG directly sends sales info to both developer and publisher. Developers and publishers not trusting GOG is harder, but they could have a third party auditor review the numbers (I don't know if they actually do that).

Good point about the sales being similar, maybe the developers do have more influence than I suspected. I remember reading a post from a developer about how GOG sets the prices when someone complained about a sale price being lower on Steam. Although my memory isn't that great so possibly I am just imagining it :/.

Interesting, thanks for the mention.

I might be wrong but lately it seems like a lot of the same games are going on sale frequently, such as XCOM2 or Deus Ex games. No problem from me but personally I haven't been that interested in recent releases either.

This is from Nov 2017, so not sure if still applicable. A Crate Entertainment developer said: https://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/gog-sale/42803

tl;dr: GOG asks gamedevs / publishers if they want to participate in sales and if they want to change prices and GOG directly controls when products will be on sale because of EU fair market policy. So I think gamedevs / publishers do set the prices, but it's up to GOG to decide when those prices will be discounted.
