Actually there is one thing I don't really understand...
You "Steam guys" are happy that us "GOG guys" are unhappy or what?
It seems that so many times you are happy to have a Linux version only on Steam and the others can fuck themselves.
I don't know any GOG user (Linux or not) who is unhappy that a game is also available on Steam, it makes no sense.

Does the Linux community really need this?

Sorry but about Steam and Linux support, I read this recently, what do you think?:

Quoting: IggiThis is Deep Silver as the publisher. I wouldn't expect them to support anything besides Steam...

They're also the publisher of Wasteland 3 and yet the Linux/macOS versions are on GOG...

The Linux versions for the Saint Rows games and the first 2 Metro games are still missing from GOG.

Yeah I know, it's a pity. But just to say Deep Silver itself isn't the cause. But yeah I'm afraid it will ending like the "Desperados III case".
And if that's the case for Metro Exodus too, seriously... too bad they choose the "wrong" publisher but I won't buy the game.
It's just not right, don't sell your game on a store if you just don't want to support all versions.
It's normal to lack the Linux version on EGS, but not on GOG, there is no excuse.

And you see not a word about GOG release... For the macOS version they mention explicitly some stores, but for Linux it's just Steam... Tell me I'm wrong...

A day-one Linux release with even DRM-Free. Very nice move (I will buy it some day, of course).

Try out Luxtorpeda, a Steam Play tool to run games in native game engines

Quoting: Purple Library GuyWhat I'd like is a tool to let me run my old Loki game ports on current Linux. Last time I tried to get Alpha Centauri fired up, there was various fiddling I had to do and in the end it worked but without sound.

Same when I tried to run Heroes of Might and Magic III. But in my case, it was just a test, I mean The complete game (with all extensions) works great on Wine and have my native language...

Tencent now own majority stake in Don't Starve and Oxygen Not Included creator Klei

About Klei, sure they support Linux, but...
Don't forget that recently their DRM-Free build doesn't have the same love.
Oxygen Not Included is not on GOG, and Mark of the Ninja: Remastered doesn't have Linux/mac builds there.
And about Griftlands it doesn't sound good either...
