Because gog can't be criticised, didn't you get the memo? Careful with the Gogstapo...

Go and whine on your LiveJournal Macfag, this ain't your hugbox. Contact their e-mail and check your spam and fucking learn to read info on game pages.

You're just showing you're a fucking moron who blames everyone else for his failing at basic level reading comprehension.

If you would have started the thread like a normal person, I would have helped you get it running on A VM or through Cider, Wineskin.

Because he's being a drama llama. It would have been easy to come to the forums and ask how to make a game work; to ask how to get a response from support. Instead he's just complaining about how he didn't get what he wanted even though he didn't even fulfill his responsibilities as a customer first (to make sure that what he's buying can work the way he intends to use it).

It's not GOG's job to coddle someone who's not doing their part - and the forum population isn't really the type to put up with the llama.

You can if you're being civil and reasonable...

While the use of "vultures" is arguable, i don't see the problem with his post that required the downvotes, especially when there has been worse things said that had a free pass on this forum. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You seem to have left out the main one? Wine.

That's what Wineskin is.

As for the OP's comment, I think the idiocy of it has been pointed out adequately enough, eliminating any need for me to comment on it. I think I'll now buy a copy of The Witcher 3 and then complain that it won't run on my microwave.

I see that you are still receiving transmissions from Earth. We'll have no more of that...

Well, for one thing, he's beginning to look suspiciously like one of those "post and leave" sorts.

Fixed that for you.

The first System Shock is pretty great though, especially the modernized version with mouselook controls (the original controls were clumsy, similarly to Ultima Underworld games).

Wineskin is an implementation of WINE on OS X that includes a UI for winetricks, winecfg, and regedit, among others, with an ability to use different versions of WINE including the stable branch, the development branch, and wine-staging. It's what I chiefly use for testing on your "Does this work in WINE" threads. Porting Kit is a reskin of Wineskin with a friendlier UI that works more like PlayOnLinux. And then of course there's CrossOver, which is a commercial implementation of WINE. Yes, CrossOver's implementation isn't vanilla WINE, but their fork of WINE is still widely used by many Mac users, and they provide their patches on WineHQ since it's covered under LGPL.

I listed these three options specifically because they'd be the most accessible to the OP. Though I'm sure the OP would be more than happy to use WINE on the command line by using the .PKGs from WineHQ in Terminal, or compile from source. :)

Even just a single button can be a surprisingly effective way to lower the barrier of entry for many, many users, especially users who aren't comfortable with using the command line to configure WINE, or like I, would rather opt to use a dialog with buttons vs. the command line.

Different strokes for different folks. The vast majority of OS X users aren't used to using Terminal to run their apps, even though tools like MacPorts and Homebrew/Cask have made it a lot more easier and a lot more accessible. People -- OS X users in particular -- just want an easy (somewhat) to follow graphical UI with graphical elements like buttons and dialogs to access WINE, and/or a file they can double-click and run, which is why tools like Wineskin and CrossOver are so popular on the Mac. Using the command line may be trivial and completely intuitive for some people, but that doesn't mean that it's trivial and completely intuitive for all. :)

In any case, I thought it fair to assume the OP wanted a fast and easy way to install their game using WINE with a minimum of effort and time required. If he/she wanted to use the .pkgs via Terminal, there's plenty of information out there on Google to help them do it.

For bug reports, they could easily report what environment they used WINE in, and others could weigh the usefulness of their reports accordingly, just like what they do now with people who post reports using different versions of WINE on different OSs or on different hardware.
