GOG's definition of “soon” is pretty weird.

Quoting: IgnisGOG's definition of “soon” is pretty weird.

No weirder than Valve's. :)

Quoting: JudasIscariotI am not sure where you saw this "Download" then "Coming to Linux soon!" unless you are referring to a very, very early version of GOG Galaxy when it was in the alpha stage and may have been known as the GOG Launcher. Did you see this link in your library some time ago?

Probably.

Quoting: ajgpI really wish they would get the backsides into gear and release galaxy for linux already; or even a small update on progress would be appreciatd at this point in time

------------
Iv talk to the support about this, and the answer I got was:
Hello, our Galaxy development team is still working on developing the client - on Windows and MacOSX it's still in beta, and the Linux version is still in development, but we don't want to rush things and release something completely unstable. I apologise for your wait, unfortunately I am unable to disclose any details before any proper announcement, but please be patient.

------------

I can personaly respect devs taking there time and not rush things, but I also would like to have some kinde of statement from the devs.
And I really want to get some games on this sale, but I also could wait from games like Hotline Miami to come to gog connect, victor vran looks intressting tho.

Great sales! Picked up Eye of the Beholder I to III, Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders (still think it's one of her best stories), X Rebirth and Anno 1701 (Anno 1404 already works great with wine, so 1701 shouldn't give any trouble either).

Picked up X Rebirth for 75% off, will wait for expansions to go on sale also.

GOG has Linux as a platform option on their website. Thats good enough for now, the galaxy app is still in beta.

Day 1 I picked up Lords of Xulima, Hotline Miami 2, Victor Vran (had it on Steam but wanted DRM free) and This War of Mine. Got Dreamfall Chapters for free thanks to all that.

Don't forget to refresh your GOG connect - it won't happen automatically.

If you are interested in Galaxy, please vote for these requests if you haven't yet:
