I have read it runs fine on steam but would rather buy it on GOG due to the lack of DRM.
From what I’ve heard, the Steam version also lacks DRM. Once you’ve downloaded it you can close Steam and just launch the game with the exe. Obviously GOG or Steam is still handy for updates.
Updates are the main reason I stick with Steam. If GOG Galaxy worked on Linux, I’d probably buy a lot more from them.
But for something like this that’s likely to get more frequent updates, I’ll stick to Steam.
Could they not just support the Heroic Game Launcher and call it official? That’s what I’d do. By support I mean mostly financial.
I have it. Installed/updated using Heroic. Works perfectly. I use the latest Proton-GE with it, and run the Vulkan backend (seems to have fewer bugs for me on AMD GPU than the DX11 version).
Running the latest Mint with the 6.1 OEM kernel and kisak-mesa drivers.
My wife has it installed with Galaxy on Windows. DRM-free means we can play co-op over LAN instead of being stuck with split-screen.
The steam version is also DRM free IIRC.
Why does that make you able to play co-op over LAN?
The steam version is also DRM free IIRC.
steam IS drm…
No, Steam is a store and a content delivery mechanism. It has the option to add DRM, which developers may choose to do, but don’t have to. There are games which can be purchased on Steam and which can be launched without the Steam client, just like any normal program.
@schizosfera @endDRM could use your thoughts on this.
Are you being sarcastic or are you asking for assistance? Please clarify.
