Not coincidentally, spending my money at GoG is not a priority.
Funny how these things work.

Any performance improvements, or are we stuck with the same shitty performance we've had since release?

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThis is one reason why I'd love to see a redone, better Steam Machine launch. Or a copyright crackdown in Asia, because Linux can compete with Windows way better than with Pirate Windows.As Bill Gates allegedly said, "I don't care if people pirate, as long as they're pirating Windows."

Even 5-years ago, I honestly never thought we'd see this day and was prepared to content myself with dual-booting and the occasional indie release for Linux.
But even as successful as Linux gaming has been, I'm still somewhat concerned about our minuscule presence and a little afraid, perhaps irrationally, that it could all just suddenly go away.

Quoting: kalinI hate card games.I like the idea of computer card games in general. What I don't like are the micro-transactions and/or hours of grinding to build a competitive deck so you don't get curb-stomped by an opponent.

"Do I want to keep using Windows and have access to all of the games, or switch to Linux and have access to only a fraction of them?"
As long as that disparity exists, Windows will always come out ahead.

Quoting: Guestunfortunally i do not see this getting any better.i mean if we had a game that was linux only and it was a decent game where people would be dying to play it maybe just maybe it would get some interest.i don't want to be negative but i have been watching this the past 2 years and unless something drastic happens with windows 10 where people mass flood away from it we are just gonna be that small market.i so want linux to be huge but people are not giving it a chance or just too afraid to try it.Most people look at it this way:

Milkstone studios says, "We support Linux on a pretty basic level (we're not Linux users ourselves, so we have limited experience with it)," and then complains about low sales.
Here's an idea: maybe if you didn't treat Linux like an afterthought then Linux gamers wouldn't treat your games like an afterthought.

So many RPGs promise a dynamic, choice-and-consequences narrative. Does this actually deliver? Most games offer minor deviations in an otherwise static narrative.

This was the first adventure game I ever played, and it ruined the genre for me, because everything else I played after just felt inferior.
