I backed this one too, and I'm very happy I did. I've tried out the pre-release builds, but never more than a few minutes here and there. I didn't want to burn out on it before the final release.

The pre-release builds were soooo good, I can hardly wait to get home and fire this up!

QuoteThey also said on Twitter they are working on bringing the Linux version of Postal 2 to GOG, but no ETA on that.

I wouldn't get too excited about that. Back in 2015 RWS said that Paradise Lost was coming to GOG too, and it hasn't quite happened yet.

I like how the Onyx / Classic Joystick bundle costs $1 more than buying the Onyx and Classic Joysticks separately. Good deal on that bundle!

I have no interest in Destiny 2, so I'd already paused my monthly. Time to go unpause...

Connect would be nice for these - I have both Fault games on Steam.

Quoting: x_wingThe low to nil involvement of GoG with Linux users has make me stay away from their platform in the last years. Right now it's more a Wine "friendly" store than a Linux one.

I've got 235 Linux native games on GOG. That seems a little more than "Wine Friendly".

I get the frustration about Galaxy. For awhile, I didn't care - I don't plan on using Galaxy anyways. But now that there have been Linux ports not coming to GOG because there's no Galaxy, I care.

On the other hand, Linux users not buying games at GOG because there's no Galaxy isn't helping. GOG's justification that Linux sales are just too low to put any priority into Galaxy is helped by people not buying games at GOG because there's no Galaxy.

QuoteIt will also be on GOG at release.

Great! Fingers crossed!

Me too. I backed it based on the promise of a GOG release. So far, they've done a great job of being DRM-free. Backers have received DRM-free builds throughout, so I'm pretty confident, so long as GOG doesn't do something silly and say no.

And this whole discussion is why, on the GOG forums, we refer to these games as "games you can play without the Steam client".

If you call them DRM-free, arguments ensue. Calling them "games you can play without the Steam client" accurately describes them, while avoiding the arguments.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyIt is impossible to do the same with Steam games..
Can you move these games to another of your machines using an external HDD?

Yes, yes you can.

In fact, you don't need the Steam client, you need a Steam client. I use SteamCMD, and play several Steam games without even having the client installed on my computer. Neither SteamCMD, nor the Steam client need to be running for the games on that list to work, and you can simply copy the install folder to another computer, and it will still work.
