Finally, lol. Now we only need a nice version of GOG Galaxy for GNU/Linux and all will be truly wonderful!

PS.
Something like the itch.io client would be more than enough.

"I love DRM free games!" and so do you! :D

Humdidum, where to start.... I bought Serious Sam's Bogus Detour on release date on GOG, because it looked like a really good game and I wanted to support the developers. Now it's easy to find very positive reviews of the game on Youtube. Shame it didn't pick up more popularity (seriously, the game looks so fun!). The only annoying part is that I seldom or ever use Windows nowadays, which makes it feel like getting screwed over by the developers because there is still no GNU/Linux port on GOG. I bought it because I wanted the support the developers (the GNU/Linux version of HammerWatch on GOG was great fun) and the game looks really awesome. Now exactly the same thing happened with Heroes of HammerWatch. I got it on GOG on release date, just to find out that there isn't any GNU/Linux port. Will I get my purchase refunded? No, since I want to support the devs. Do I hope that the devs realize that porting a game just like they did with the first HammerWatch is the way to go? I really hope so. Please, release a GNU/Linux version on GOG, even if it won't happen tomorrow.
If a game is good people will pay for it, yes (so ditch that silly DRM and make a GNU/Linux port).

Oh, no, this is bad news. Somehow I expected a GNU/Linux to be available at GOG on launch date. :/ I bought the game on GOG and now this piece of ill news shows up. I also bought Serious Sam's Bogus Detour on GOG but I still haven't been able to enjoy it on GNU/Linux.
I would not mind if GOG made a super simplistic and light Galaxy version for GNU/Linux so that users can use it just to download the game installers and log on to the service required to play the game. This would however clash with their statement of GOG Galaxy always being a voluntary addition and not a requirement.
On Windows you have to launch Serious Sam's Bogus Detour through GOG Galaxy in order to get connected and access multiplayer (otherwise everything except the singleplayer button will be grayed out, if launched outside of Galaxy). In Hammerwatch you could simply install and play the game and get connected, either through the direct IP option or see list of public games. I think the developers are to blame for this and I don't like their design choice (what will I do with my GOG purchase now? Probably leave it as it is, since I want to support GOG and Crackshell studios, but being let down like this seriously sucks; yes, Steam is nice and I have a very good experience with Steam on GNU/Linux, but as someone pointed out I don't like the idea of having 'all eggs in one basket' either, hence I prefer to have selected games on GOG).
