The updated release of 'Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive' that has Linux support is now on GOG
13 July 2018 at 8:10 pm UTC

Apart from maybe a handful of levels where you where getting crazy about the difficulty at a certain spot that was close to impossible, this game was rather easy too bruteforce. Just get to a corner, shoot till the level is clear. Thank John Cooper and a a few navigation issues of the enemies.

Setting was nice, story was nice, Graphics in the first part were nice back then.
No comment about the botched 3d attempt in the 2 other parts of the series ;)

I liked the original NWN, but for an enhanced edition i stil think the graphic is too old and looks outdated. Im a little bit disappointed.

No. Sadly that wasn't possible due to 32bit library dependencies.

Somehow no one can answer this. Can you check please, is the update 64-bit or not?

According to the Company this is not possible due to 32bit lib dependencies
