A sweet new build of 'Minigalaxy' is out for easy GOG game managing on Linux

In terms of actual problems faced. At least in my experience. More often than not, games that ship outdated libs and crash are fixed by removing those outdated libs.

Quoting: DesumMy problem with buying games on GOG is having to mess with dependencies before I get to play the game. It's a major pain in the ass that makes me more forgiving of the ancient mess of old Ubuntu 12.04 libs that is the Steam Runtime.
Dealing with dependencies for GOG games is much less of an issue than using ancient runtime from Ubuntu 12.04.

I stick to lgogdownloader, since now it also supports incremental updates for Linux versions using pseudo Galaxy method (through zip offsets hack) quite well.

Quoting: CyrilBut the question remains, how did they did it?
It probably skips the check. I didn't experiment with changing system time.

Just tested the game without Internet connection - it works just fine.

Did they remove on-line requirement from it?

Would be interesting to see RDNA 2 cards that are high end, but not "extreme high end". I.e. priced around current top Navi cards.

Quoting: MaathWell, for one, do you get a different ending if you start the game and do nothing for the entire 400 days and then log in for the final wake up of the king? If so, how many years would you have to play this game to see everything?
Yeah, after playing through it once, I'd like an ability to speed things up without real-time sync. Ideally, developers should simply implement such feature in the game itself for subsequent playthroughs.

It's not out on GOG yet?

Hmm:

For technical reasons the release of The Longing on GOG.com will be slightly delayed, we promise it'll be less than 400 days.
