Out of my wishlist now. The game did look promising, but next time developers should choose middleware more wisely.

Response from Raze (from Larian):
GOG usually takes a day or so to create their own installers, but I don't know what their holiday schedule is.

Hopefully GOG version is coming out ASAP as well. GOG Linux users however lost the chance to buy the game on major winter sale. May be Larian will celebrate the release with good discount?

Quoting: HunterZIf you just disable compositing, games run great in Linux. The only problem is lack of resolution switching support, which kills me in games like FTL and Gemini Rue. I've become too familiar with using xrandr! It would be better if games or Linux could just do a bilinear scale to my native resolution though, which is what the monitor ends up doing anyway.Martin explained, that Wayland compositors work differently, and you can't disable compositing like with X.

Quoting: cheerockieUnfortunately but is very probable, that Witcher 3 will not be released on Linux in native.What source is that?
I know it from a reliable source...
But is very possible for "wrapper" port (with some CD Projekt RED support) in 2016.

Star Wars: KOTOR 2 - this is the most sad moment of the year. I was terrified that a 10-year-old game would be the type of game that we are going to be happy for. Of course it is still good game, but it shouldn't be one of the best games in our libraries.What does that suppose to mean? One of the best games in my library are old games. Why would you be terrified about such thing? Good games are art, and masterpieces remain masterpieces.
