GOG staff state that Galaxy for Linux is being worked on, but still no ETA

Quoting: g000hMy feeling is that it is a waste of time for Linux gamers to voice hatred of either of these big Linux supporters. (Better to direct your energy into contacting game developers who are not releasing for Linux 'yet'.)

I don't get all this drama, and I never liked the entitlement from some Linux gamers. The +1 thing on steam forums is pretty lame. If the developers want to make Linux port, they will, if not I don't think there is much you can say to convince them. It's a fool's errand.

The only thing that helps is using Linux and buying Linux games. If you can, from the porter's store.

I think we're better of just ignoring those who don't support Linux gaming. Just focus on those who do.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoAbout Galaxy on Linux, We don't actually need it... Is a form of DRM under disguise.

That doesn't make sense. They are still offering their games to download from GOG DRM free. Why would they add DRM to their GOG Galaxy client when it's optional, and not all people use it? A publisher who wanted DRM wouldn't get behind that.

While I prefer to buy my games DRM free, I'm not opposed to the optional DRM that Steam has.

Well, at least they officially stated that they're working on it. It's better than not knowing that it's being worked on, which I just assumed before this statement.

I use Funtoo instead of Gentoo, but it's pretty much the same at its core.

Ashes of the Singularity almost has Vulkan ready, doesn't have Linux on the radar right now
20 Apr 2017 at 6:50 am UTC

Quoting: m0nt3Because DX12 is locked down to Windows 10 and Windows 7 still has the greatest marketshare? Just a thought, since vulkan works fine on windows 7.

4 Apr 2017 at 5:57 pm UTC

Cool, this looks interesting. And the fact that they added Linux support to their tech demo so early speaks to their technical skill.
