GOG Connect adds more games, plus a huge summer sale now on
6 Jun 2017 at 4:43 pm UTC
Quoting: SolitaryThat could work if GOG Galaxy worked on Linux...
I'd argue Galaxy is only marginally useful for current GOG users, who come to GOG to buy DRM-free games. But to gain more used to DRM Steam users, Galaxy can help. I suppose GOG don't see Linux Steam users as a major point of focus. I.e. DRM-free Linux users are already using GOG, and Steam Linux users are just a small percentage of all Steam users. So I think it's just a matter of priority. Kind of annoying for Steam Linux users I suppose, but can make sense from GOG's priority perspectives.

Just a reminder, about other "connect" like options on GOG (those are just for a very few games, but still useful):

Adam Skorupa is good. He wanted to work on Witcher-like music project, but ended up doing it for this game.

Similarity with Banner Saga is really rooted in art influence (Banner Saga weren't entirely original in it too):

I agree though, that +$45 (for the base $20 pledge) for the soundtrack sounds too much.

Quoting: PixelPiThe Linux version runs pretty fine.
On your particular setup may be. It doesn't mean it runs fine in majority of other cases. If GOG rejected it for technical reasons, it means developers didn't want to fix some major game breaking bugs.

Quoting: TheRiddickDo you need wine-2.9 or wine-2.8-staging for witcher3? I can not find wine2.9-staging.
To run TW3, you can build regular Wine from source, applying 2 patches I listed above.
