The Linux/Mac version is planned after the Windows release, i'm completly sure and it's absolutely certain. Why ? Because instead of to say "No Linux version planned for this game" to , Michał Stec said "It’s too early to say", "We’ll see after that" -> CDPR wants to take out a version but has not begun the development yet.
I'd say they are simply avoiding answering the question. It's better than straight no, but it doesn't guarantee anything really.
But why GoG (which is a branch of CDPR) release a Linux version of GoG and why CPDR release The Witcher 2 (by Virtual Programming) on Linux too if they don't want to release TW3 on Linux ?
