I wonder if JuriJ, who was (and maybe still is) head of GOG support, is works there this days.

We had nice conversation with him in year 2011 about Linux support at GOG. He sent me dozen and half e-mails with detailed explanation of why I am wrong, why nobody makes games for Linux (because nobody buys it, he said, and mention EA as example) and why they are not going to release games for Linux (because they make good money without it, he said; but in next letter he takes his words back, and accept it was emotional).

So when CDR cancelled TW3 port it doesn't surprise me. Now I am not surprised either. Because, you know, it's unlikely that JuriJ is only one at GOG who looks at Linux this way.

Switching CPU governor from ondemand to performance could be very useful for running games on APU.

Quoting: GuestSomeone gave me boxed version of that game when it came out and I never got around to installing it. I wonder if the serial would work for Steam.

HL2 was and still Steam-only, so it will work.

Quoting: Grim85Didn't they have a Beta of their Minecraft Story, and it never got publicly released?

That probable because I drop this letter to dev:

Hello, Dave!
Is there plans to port other Telltale titles? Like Back to the Future, Walking Dead, Wolf Among Us, etc.?

I personally not interested in Minecraft at all, but would be happy to buy some other Telltale games (for example listed above) if this games will be ported.

I also asked if they using SDL2, and the answer was:

We are indeed using SDL2. =)

Thanks for your interest.

Anyway, Walking Dead will be instabuy for me, just like Life is Strange.

Win32 considered legacy even on Windows (UWP is new shiny thing) so if you hate WINE, you could also hate PCSX or DOSBox for same reasons.
As for WINE ports - I actually prefer to VP get money for eON ports (if Feral or Aspyr porting is not an option for developers).

Quoting: LeopardCustom wine version is really needed?

Yes, but I hope GalliumNine will get merged into Wine-Staging: https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/pull/333 [External Link]
