For now I tend to stop thinking about what future game will be released from Feral.
Some of your hopes are nice, and I would like to see some games on Linux like Shadow Warrior 2 for example.
But since I'm a DRM-free guy (I don't want to relaunch the debate) I don't believe they could release any game on Linux that's exist on GOG store for example.
The exception is XCOM, which was released on GOG recently but AFTER the Linux port.
I would be very surprised of the contrary.
So I don't think Shadow Warrior 2 is possible, or Frostpunk, or Red Faction Guerilla ReMarstered, or Kingdom Come.

Quoting: CyrilIt's the moment to finally start the game! ^_^

Haha. I played the original campaign and loved every minute of it. I have been waiting for all the DLC to land before going through again.

I am jealous of you getting to play it with new eyes!

In fact, I bought the game a long time ago but never played it deeply.
I just tested it, it ran fine so I closed it. :D
Bu yeah now, I have no excuse!

Quoting: cc2600So ironically for Cyberpunk 2077 to count as a linux sale I will have to get it on steam. I'm ok with that.

Oh, yeah... That's a shame.
I am in a hurry to see what gog will announce about this whole news and I hope they will do something.

Quoting: PikoloThe official version is that the Witcher 3 CD release had DRM which got cracked while the online(aka. through GOG) release didn't. And I think both happened simultaneously

I took a quick look at this and it seems like the Witcher 3 disc version was sold before the game was officially released. You had to download a small patch to make the game work. If this server ceases to exist, the discs are becoming useless on their own. Though, you can backup the patch and put it along with the original discs. It's suboptimal, but I think it's kinda OK. They wanted to sell physical pre-orders, and this was their way of doing it.

I can confirm, at the time I bought the Boxed edition. I still have this patch on my HDD, around 300 Mo.
But I didn't look around how to install it in 2018 if this patch is missing.
Is it still available online officially? I don't know.
But the good point is that GOG gave you a GOG key for download the entire game, it's like having it two times.

Ok so I read nearly all the comments in this news.
And yeah, this is pretty mind blowing.
For now I don't know if it will be great or not for GNU/Linux, but it's BIG!

I don't know if I will create a Steam account and buy some games, it's too early.
But for sure now, I will stop to hate Valve. ^_^
And I expect some news from GOG about it too.

I would say: The enemy of my enemy is my friend?

I'm fine with my GTX 780. IF I buy a new GPU, for sure it won't be an Nvidia one.

Quoting: silmethAlthough, one probably should be warned that the developer seems to have a history of not supporting their GoG releases [External Link]. :(

And at the moment the game has other problems besides the stuttering – it might not start if a controller is connected; crashed on me once when Steam notified me of a new trading card; and the save after the first night – just before a dialogue with an NPC cut-scene – when loaded again skips the cut-scene (even though the state was supposedly saved before it).

It does look fun nevertheless. I hope they do sort out the remaining annoying bugs, and that they are going to update the GoG release too (even though I bought mine on Steam already).

Unfortunately it's not the first game/dev with this issue. But damn, why GOG "allow" that?
GOG is known for being demanding on some aspects but this kind of behavior (no respect at all for GOG customers, who BUY their game) should be prohibited.

If they (the devs) think DRM-free releases profits to piracy, they should ask themselves if people could pirate their game BECAUSE they don't update it... Actually THEIR behavior profits to piracy. :><:

I bought the GOG version, I hope it will be updated periodically.

PS: Don't forget devs/publishers/etc nearly EVERY game is pirated on Steam! Pirates don't need GOG or whatever DRM-free store to do that...

Quoting: CyrilWhat does it say when you launch it via the terminal?

Player.log gives me a backtrace ending in an unhandled NULL exception in funlockfile. Same when I run it outside of steam.

I don't know. But it seems to be an Nvidia driver issue, what's your version? Have you tried to upgrade it?
Xpander had a similar issue with Rust here [External Link].

Quoting: EhvisAnybody else with having crashes on startup? With Ubuntu no less!

The crash is only for the 64 bit version. The 32 bit version starts and plays, but can crash due to out of memory and other reasons as well.

Since it's working perfectly for Samsai, it's probably a dependency issue with 18.04. Or maybe even the Nvidia driver.

No crashes at all here. Just the issue with the cursor as Liam said. Nvidia driver: 396.51.
But I'm not on Ubuntu so...

What does it say when you launch it via the terminal?
