contra_cultura: To contribute a bit to the subject, I have my hopes high on Cyberpunk 2077 using Vulkan, therefore (hopefully) being able to run on Linux as well as on Windows. That would make sense at least from a reach based perspective, although who knows, Gwent only runs on Windows so far...
The way things have deteriorated on this site for a couple of years now (and GOG and CDPR truly are close), and the decisions CDPR made for both Witcher 2 and 3, I will be pretty surprised if Cyberpunk runs on Linux. I hope it will, as I'd love to be wrong about this, but I just can't see it.

I loved the first two Witcher games (especially the first), and would very much like to play the third as well. But I'm only running Linux now (for several years), so it would be a total waste of money to buy that game.

Linux and DRM Free *should* go hand in hand. Both give control to the user. Windows and the bloatware GOG is pushing so hard do not. Perhaps this difference in ideological setup is the deeplying reason things have changed here.

Good luck everyone!

Impressive! Thanks a lot for generosity and another giveaway!

Count me in, please, for:
> Among the Sleep
> System Shock: Enhanced Edition

Regarding your wrappers - it is a great pity that you're only one person vs. a lot of games needing care. I've tried to install my Age of Wonders during the weekend and failed both with PlayOnLinux and bare Wine. It would be great to have one-click wrappers for this one and many other games also.

The same with Screamer 2, which works, but is released here with really poor DosBox configuration (missing 3dfx effects and using centered screen in bad resolution...).

It's sad that even games available for Linux (regarding WineHQ database) are not-so-available in practice :|

Yeah I agree with all your points, hopefully we're moving towards a future in which the ideas of drm-free and free open-source software become predominant. I don't know how hard it is for CDPR to develop for Linux or it if makes sense from an economic perspective, but I think this will become easier and cheaper to do with time. They've proven to be smart people in the past so hopefully they won't become a sort-of-Steam and they will increase their user base and revenue through better platform support and user-friendly practices.
