To be fair, they do a decent job providing Linux compat for games they support. They just don't do anything on the launcher side.

Doing nothing is still more than some companies do. Some go out of their way to ensure their game won't run on Linux.

Fortunately, it's mostly MP games, and I very rarely play MP games.

Then there's me that pretty much only plays multiplayer games... 😥

Blessed are those that still find joy playing single player games

GOG doesn't have regional pricing.

I'm unclear as to whether you're saying this is a positive or negative.

I see it as a positive - it means they have a price and that price is the same for everyone without favoritism.

Negative. As someone who lives in a 3rd-world country where minimum wage is $0.75/hr, even a senior accountant position would be lucky to earn $750/mo working 10-12hours a day. So pardon me for not favoring the idea of "equals price for everyone".

For us down here, it's either Steam Regional Pricing or the high sea.
