GOG’s installers work great with Wine as do the games themselves. If you desperately need a launcher before you can even consider them, you can use Heroic Games Launcher - in fact I’d prefer if they throw their weight behind it than on Galaxy. A match made in heaven.
I guess the other good thing is GOG is not a US company, they’re based in Poland. No tax money going to the American regime and their shenanigans I never asked for.
GOG, it will be easier to “look a bit closer at Linux” if you pull your heads out of your asses.
Heroic Games Launcher is pretty good if you just need to play the games from GOG.
Some engagement would still be good. For example without Galaxy some games have reduced functionality like no PvP or map updates (Northgard).
Look harder.
and that’s something that we’ll be looking at.
Meanwhile, steam is over here cornering the market
I think you underestimate how much money valve has, and how little GOG has.
And? Literally all they need to do is make a decent launcher / downloader that isn’t stuck in Windoze
The beauty is that valve has opensourced a shit ton of what they done
It’s been years since they last promised a Linux client.
You don’t need a client, you just download Linux games from their site and run them.
It would be nice if the supported a standard container image to have more compatibility with more distros
What could they even do? The games work fine on linux
Official support for proton and official client for gog galaxy or just helping with Dev of heroic
