Iv heard the news, Stardew valley is out on Mac and Linux on steam.
But its no where to be seen on GoG :(.

So dont we get a Linux version, or are gog just slower to update or release there version of games?
Iv know they test the games heavely before they get released or so Iv heard.
But the beta was this week, maybe it was steam only?

Anyone got any thoughts or knowlage on this?

The port is ready but I think we're gonna have to wait until Monday and hope GOG make it available soon! That's what It says on stardewvalley.net. For now we can only spend our time on something else, it's a shame we didn't get it today for the weekend :(

Thanks for the info.
Ye, then sun is shining, and the weather is great, but Im bored and I got noo stardew valley to waste my time with :'(.
Hello Darkness my old friend...

Jokes aside, lets hope for monday, else we need to start a riot or something.

Edit: I have no idea how I didnt see this btw. So I guess its confirmed for GoG, like you said :).

As almost always we have to wait longer than the steam people. :(

Sad to see that there is no port today either :(

I dont mind that, atleast we get solid games and not broken, like there is alot of on steam.
But i do believe The Stardew Valley port is a solid one, judging from the Steam Beta and Starbound :).

And hold on guys we will get it :).
Btw about the riot thing, if someone wants to start it I could probably tag along /Kappa.

I don't think this is a Linux desdain as much as one aimed at what is estimated to be a lower-tier game in their system - no matter its popularity.
Stardew Valley updates have always taken about a week to come out on Gog in the past, much to the author's concern.

Here it is ! i think your being very unfair. in the first place, they really put a lot of work into offering linux versions of games,

They really did a fantastic job. Games are installed in 2 clicks, work great and there is no differences between windows/linux products apart from what the developpers decide to do.

Basically, if a dev chooses not to update the Linux version of their game for whatever reason, i can't see how gog should be held for responsible.

That said, Stardew valley is out. ! :-))))

To be honest: My comment is a reference to the general behavior of GOG related to games that have in fact official Linux-versions and which are not available here since long time. For example like Metro or Dungeons 2 (more examples also easy to be found). Where are those versions? Nobody knows, but of course Windows is here. So Linux-users are treated as second class at all and this is also the case by having an official released version more than five days later. ;-)

Could be meny reasons for this, And its not up to gog to add linux ports.
The one you want to blame is the devs.
And Im sure they will only tell you, linux is small, and there is no point for them to put it on GoG.
It cost more then its worth the effort.

And lets say GoG even asked for Linux port, its still up to the devs to give it to them.
And from my experience, gog always seems to apply very solid ports.
Metro LL and Metro wasnt really very solid ports. Iv remember having alot of problems under Linux.
It ran good, but still hade alooot of problems. And I can see why gog rejected them from selling it on GoG,
if thats the case.

Also Dying Light runs like a potato under Linux, this could also be the reason why we dont see it on Gog,
or the devs behinde Dying Light dont want to bother with it.

Saying its GoG's fault, is very unfair, cause we dont really know whos to blame.
But I dont want GoG to be another Steam, toons of broken games and there is jsut a pure mess in the store.

Don't get me wrong: I don't blame GOG for trying. I'm angry because of their information politics at all. You can search for the concrete article regarding Metro for example. The information is that GOG hold back the version not Deep Silver. Why is there no information about that? Only on an external website? I think GOG should talk about their reasons. Yes the ports are solid, but it would be better if they talk about.

Talking about their reasons might be a tad touchy from a publisher's perspective...

On top of that, I really think they don't need to explain all the technical problems they are facing to make a decent port and/or create a good wrapper.

I'm glad they focus on quality and only release products when they're ready.

That's your view, but in fact GOG is not doing the ports at all. They just host the platform and regarding the last actions I don't say they do this "good" or even "customer friendly". Talking about reasons is mostly the best way having transparency. And I don't praise groundless the actions here, for example geoblocking and the regional pricing or the so-called "optional" client, which will not stay that way. But hey: Your view, mine is another! That's okay. :-)

As I've said: I like GOG as a platform a lot. But I'll stay critical at all and don't want to relativize actions only because I like the platform. One day I login and GOG has mutated to another copy of STEAM, because the actions I've mentioned just tend in this direction.

But for now let's have fun in "Stardew Valley", because the game works like a charm on Linux. <3

Being critical is important and we all know that everything starts from the few who "dare" state the obvious and make a strong point. Thereby, I am 100% with you when it comes to pointing out how we linux users tend to be misguided by false announcements,

Keep up the good rant ! I'm with you ! :-)
