It sounds like gog is pretty great, with their DRM free software.

I'm generally indifferent towards steam but I'm under the impression that they've contributed a lot to the recent developments in Linux gaming compatibility, and this has removed a pretty big hurdle for people who want to move away from windows, and I just think that's swell.

    They could try to offer a proper Linux Galaxy client, though. Especially since CP2077 locks some minor things behind being launched from Galaxy.

    There will likely never be an official GOG Galaxy client for Linux, judging by the company's utter disregard for Linux users. It was the most requested position on their community wish list, and they just removed it saying they have no plans on adding Linux support.

    There is some CP2077 content you only get through GoG Galaxy ?!?

    It's a few cosmetics and some "pre-order" style weapons that are references to Witcher. Nothing substantial. There have been mods to unlock them without Galaxy since forever, and despite all the improvements, CP2077 still benefits greatly from some mods. You're really shooting yourself in the foot playing vanilla.

    Well that sounds like a problem for Cyberpunk players, who I have no respect for

    CDPR's business decisions around the game exploited their employees and socially conscious consumers. I don't like white/green/pinkwashing and don't like when people give money to companies that do it

    They also said the game art with the massive gock was criticising corporations that fetishise trans bodies, and then they gave honorable mention in their cosplay contest to a cis woman who stuck a glowstick down her pants. CDPR is the corporation fetishising trans bodies
