Unofficial:

Minigalaxy and Heroic are both clients which support GoG

And when GoG does regional pricing.

So much more expensive if you don't live in the US/Western Europe.

Bought northgard on GOG, it turns out the game needs GOG galaxy for the multiplayer. It has the icon for "supports Linux" though. Really pissed about GOGs marketing there.

(I use Lutris as well, but it sadly does not solve everything)
