GOG support are useless and I can no longer trust their store pages... multiplayer games are repeatedly having LAN stripped from them and that piece of junk Galaxy secretly mandated... Linux stated to be supported but when I buy the game it isn't available to collect.
GOG have seriously lost their way as a business model. When I contacted support they informed me that I just had to "switch to the Linux build of the game" in my library, followed by a screenshot they generated. However, had they bothered to actually follow their own instructions they'd have noticed the issue (they didn't move away from the Windows selection).
I feel GOG as a company is blinded by their lust for monetising the tracking of how people use games (i.e. galaxy / games phoning home) and have become incompetent at what they used to do best... providing Good Old Games.
I'm considering abandoning.
