With ScummVM integrating Nuvie, I wonder what the odds of bringing Exult in are...

This actually kinda sucks. The old version works on EasyRPG, so I hope everyone backed up their games.

Quoting: ShmerlIn terms of actual problems faced. At least in my experience. More often than not, games that ship outdated libs and crash are fixed by removing those outdated libs.

A lot of libs are not backwards compatible. And we're not even just talking about the GNU stuff here.

Quoting: DesumMy problem with buying games on GOG is having to mess with dependencies before I get to play the game. It's a major pain in the ass that makes me more forgiving of the ancient mess of old Ubuntu 12.04 libs that is the Steam Runtime.

Dealing with dependencies for GOG games is much less of an issue than using ancient runtime from Ubuntu 12.04.

In terms of time consumed? Not really, since you pretty much HAVE to deal with it on a case by case basis on GOG. And don't get me wrong, the runtime is a VERY ugly solution. But most gamers don't care about how bad the means to getting games to run is as long as the games run.

Can anyone else test Tomb Raider Legends, Anniversary and Underworld with a high DPI mouse? I'm getting bizarre CPU spikes whenever I move the mouse around with my G300s mouse and it simply doesn't happen with a controller or a generic wireless mouse.

It's been a problem for a while now, but it was mitigated in the last release but seems to have relapsed here.

Quoting: tmtvlIs this some kind of Dead Or Alive thing where a normal game series turned into a cash cow by pandering to the lowest common denominator?

Sex sells. Trying to act like there is anything to be embarrassed about here is a relic of the puritanical days. Hell, there are plenty of women who like this very kind of fan service.

As for the Sakura games themselves, Sakura Dungeon is worth the $10 if you're into Eye of the Beholder type games. The rest are fairly generic fan service ecchi and hentai VNs.

And GOG should really be tossing a few eggs into the Wine/Proton basket just as an insurance policy.

As for MiniGalaxy, it looks quite nice, but it does diddly about the dep issue with GOG games.

I'm glad Stadia has flopped. I care about DRM, and 'game streaming' is the ULTIMATE in DRM.

Important to keep in mind this is a 'look but don't touch' license.
