Looks like GOG Galaxy won't come to Linux any time soon, as it's "not a priority"

I think the main problem is that by not supporting Galaxy, they hurt their own Linux user base, since new Linux users are less likely to use them. It's clearly a management issue that they have.

Linking to individual posts there works most of the time, but occasionally it's broken.

Planet Nomads has a huge update named "Awakening" adding more animals, crash sites and more

Quoting: KetilI run it on ultra on my i7-3820, 16GB ram, nvidia 1060 3GB computer. It lag while it saves, and on an earlier version it lagged when I walked far away from where I had been before because it generated the landscape, but other than that I cannot complain about performance. Planet Nomads run better for me than both rust and ark.
It has very bad performance with Mesa on high settings.

It's not just not that good. Last time I tried it was horrendous on anything besides minimal settings, and I have a decent GPU. So I decided to wait until they'll switch to Vulkan.

Good to know, they are planning Unity update. Current version has very poor performance.

What games do you want ported to Linux? Feral Interactive want to know again

Quoting: Avehicle7887Despite this game's 2 years old now, I bet many Linux users would buy it if it was ported.
No. That's the problem - the Linux users who want to play Witcher 3 have already bought it, and would want the Linux port "for free".
How do you know they already bought it? I'd guess once Wine will reach full support, number of Linux users who would buy it will grow, but until that happens, port still can boost sales quite a bit as well. Either way, CDPR will get some money.

Black Mirror, a gothic-horror adventure series re-imagining releases in November with Linux support

THQ Nordic are DRM-free friendly (they have a lot of games on GOG), so this is promising.

I never played the original series, but description reminds me of horror classic - Clive Barker's Undying [External Link].

It's available on GOG as well: https://www.gog.com/game/we_happy_few [External Link]

And they said [External Link] they'll publish some development updates about work on the Linux version, once they'll start it. I agree that their communication is great.
