"kill 1" was so tempting! Guess who got blocked first (needed to test the feature). :D

Nice update!

It means there is no demo. :)

Quoting: BTREI recently covered Aztez whose developer stated that they outright rejected [External Link] the game from being on the store.

LOL! If the developers are not lying then the reasoning is:

Yeah, GOG said their audience is too narrative-driven, they declined the game awhile ago.

Considering they are not accepting visual novels for being too narrative. :D Apparently it is very hard to fit in GOG's "Procrustean Bed" of gaming. :P

Well, let's be more impersonal. We all already knew GOG is utilizing zero cost policy towards Linux: no in-house ports, no attempts to persuade developers. Now, we have just another one added to this list: no additional expenses for Galaxy. And given GOG is the only one besides Steam to support regional pricing, it is still reasonable to get games there and not on Humble Store. Of course if Humble has Linux exclusives (DRM-free), then I will get them on Humble.

Kinda ironic "CD PROJECT S.A." is aiming to directly compete with Valve [External Link]:

GOG.com business objectives
To create a catalogue of brand-new AAA releases fully supported by GOG Galaxy; to turn GOG Galaxy into a technological foundation upon which gamers can access videogames produced by CD PROJEKT RED and interact with one another.

while being cheapsakes. :P

But with all honesty… We asked to "bring existing Linux versions of games" and we got just that. There were no deal on GOG actually spending money on Linux-related development. No, if only there were no Galaxy binding in those recent multiplayer games…

This could be great news!

I hope now "Humble Bundle Inc." will start to further develop its own CDN (or, rather, its own Torrent trackers, which it has) and will sell more DRM-free games directly instead of Steam-keys only. ^_^

Quoting: Sir_DiealotGalaxy allows those games to work without the steam client.

And locks games to Galaxy. :D
No, thanks. We don't need to replace one store lock-in with another.

Quoting: TheBardDo you tested online myltiplayer on the GOG version? Does it requires galaxy? Can GOG players play with Steam ones?

Yes, online requires Galaxy, as clearly stated as such in the game page [External Link] (see the paragraph under the "system requirements" ) and no, online multiplayer is neither "Steam/GOG cross-play" capable, nor available on Linux (due to Galaxy, obviously).
