I bought it on gog, yay for DRM free purchases.
GOG every time, mate. I have a NAS full of offline installers.
Boo for garbage Linux integration.
What do you mean? Is this why I haven't had luck with gog on Linux lol
Yeah CDPR doesn't care about Linux support at all. They for years promised Linux support for their GOGGalaxy desktop client and then abruptly deleted the webpage that promised that feature. Their Linux support IME is some dodgy shell scripts that never work right.
Lol how did I not know gog is under CDPR. Well, after all the promise and lack of delivery on cyberpunk, color me not surprised.
The Linux market is only growing, they should definitely be ashamed. Even the most random bullshit clients are supporting Linux nowadays.
CDPR has some interesting history. My understanding is that they got their start bootlegging games that couldn't be got legally in their area, and transitioned to making games for their isolated market. GoG felt like a way to he true to their roots, distributing the old games used to bootleg legally.
Yeah GOG has an interesting legacy. For a long time it was the only place to get working games for abandoned platforms that didn't require ages of tinkering. They'd give you a bundled copy of dosbox or some other emulator preconfigured to work with the particular game on Windows.
It's moved so far from its roots that they've all but abandoned the acronym. A bit like how TLC used to stand for "The Learning Channel"
Boo to linux.
Also (at least here on my front), its 80% off on GOG now, not delisted.
Just checked. Delisted to me.
checked here again, also delisted. At the time of my comment, it was delisted from steam, but still available on GOG.
Yeah but your initial comment was so smug, it's almost like you don't understand that a delisted game can still be played forever by whoever previously purchased it. Even if uninstalled, the packages remain available on Steam.
