MODERATORS
GOG is great, but they need to make a Linux launcher, already. Or if they can't, they should make it so the community can.
The heroic launcher supports GOG.
True but paying customers can expect that CD Project to that by themselves from the cut they take from games on GOG and the insane amounts of Cyberpunk money they earned. Randy Pitchford claims that "Steam does very little to earn the massive cut they take and continues its effective monopoly" and that "very little" includes making clients for three operating systems, a VR platform, a handheld, and a whole operating system.
It's clear that Valve's competitors undervalue the user experience that Steam provides and don't understand why it's so sticky.
