Comment on Anon uses GOG

It sounds like gog is pretty great, with their DRM free software.
I’m generally indifferent towards steam but I’m under the impression that they’ve contributed a lot to the recent developments in Linux gaming compatibility, and this has removed a pretty big hurdle for people who want to move away from windows, and I just think that’s swell.

They could try to offer a proper Linux Galaxy client, though. Especially since CP2077 locks some minor things behind being launched from Galaxy.

There will likely never be an official GOG Galaxy client for Linux, judging by the company’s utter disregard for Linux users. It was the most requested position on their community wish list, and they just removed it saying they have no plans on adding Linux support.

heroic game launcher?
DupaCycki@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Keep in mind Heroic is completely third-party and lacks official support. So if a game you paid for stops working on your Linux system - you’ll receive no support and no refund.

That’s what I use but save syncing is still in beta and the absence of the (admittedly minor) Galaxy-exclusive stuff in CP2077 kinda irks me.

i rarely use it, so i am not familiar with the lack of festures.
i just wanted to throw the name out as it wasn’t mentioned yet

Well that sounds like a problem for Cyberpunk players, who I have no respect for

I’m playing Cyberpunk 2077 now for the first time and having a great time. Sincere question: why don’t you have respect for players?

CDPR’s business decisions around the game exploited their employees and socially conscious consumers. I don’t like white/green/pinkwashing and don’t like when people give money to companies that do it

There is some CP2077 content you only get through GoG Galaxy ?!?
Jesus_666@lemmy.world 1 day ago
It’s pretty minor (stuff like a t-shirt with the Galaxy logo on it) but it’s kind of annoying that it’s locked.

It’s a few cosmetics and some “pre-order” style weapons that are references to Witcher. Nothing substantial. There have been mods to unlock them without Galaxy since forever, and despite all the improvements, CP2077 still benefits greatly from some mods. You’re really shooting yourself in the foot playing vanilla.
