"Elminage ORIGINAL - Priestess of Darkness and The Ring of the Gods" has just released on Steam.

Different publisher this time, but I hope it will come here.
Elminage Original is much more accessible game than Gothic: monsters give more EXP, party's chance to hit is much higher (+hit on items is much higher), it is more open (most of dungeons are accessible by player after completing the first quest). So it would be great for those who'd like to play Elminage games but got turn away by Gothic's unfriendliness (in terms of mechanics).

It's on sale for a few days so I'll hold my breath to see if it appears here. IIRC Gothic took a long time to arrive after the Steam launch, but as you say it's a new publisher (D3?) so maybe they'll be quicker...

I'd buy this game if it comes here, provided it works on WINE.

Just had a quick look at the portfolio of D3 - not a single game on GOG (unless I missed one). The publisher of Elminage Gothic, Ghostlight, has at least the (or some) Agarest games which are on GOG, too.
Well, you never know what's going on in the background.

Well FWIW I asked GOG and D3 on Twitter whether it was coming along soon. Hope we get good news.
