Until gog finally gets a good first(!) party linux client buying games there is not really worth it yet.

Why do you need a first party client when third party client works fine?

[–] doublah@sopuli.xyz 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Because the third party client based on reverse-engineering and undocumented APIs could break at any time.

Fair point but it's also true that first party client can break at any time just as well.

Yeah.

I know it must seem like a small market to them, but Linux should really be higher on their priority list. As it’s growing at Windows' expense.
