No need to "worry" about me being at a wrong spot... if this release is finally "going through" there will be countless of new updates GOG most likely is not getting. If it works the same such as the "last update" then GOG could become another rainy period for more than 9 months after.

If there is a critical game breaking bug, which is a high risk on this game as this game needs debugging almost non stop, then the GOG gamers may not be able to properly play this game... while the Steam users are doing "acrobatics".

However... every bit of support is like a oasis in the middle of a desert and if we at least get a new update once in a big while... we at least could say "it is not over yet", so there is hope.

In the end the game will stay listed, with the version number changed.

Sure, i can understand that those devs are not "to eager" providing GOG with updates because economically... they can only buy some breakfast (of course, many people would be glad having a breakfast) using GOGs money, for sure not a new car... but this unfortunate reality is kinda "to be expected" because if gamers see a "second class treatment" involving lack of updates and even no discounts, they usually "run away"... So we can say "self fulfilling prophecy".

Yes, the advantage of DRM free is unique but the sad truth it... those who dare can "circumvent the Steam DRM" (not even cracking or a crack needed) almost instantly, so... in the end even this advantage may not be unique to GOG.

Man now I need to test the game out again.. Last time I played it, I was using Xbox one controller and cheap Logitech G F310 with no issue.. Thank you for this information.

Looks like Sons of Valhalla got updated finally..

The list was updated.

Important about Pathfinder: Kingmaker. A developer confirmed they're not capable of updating the Linux port on GOG. I expressed my dissatisfaction to them, in a polite but firm and uncompromising way.

As Owlcat has lost the rights to Kingmaker, they are unable to do anything with it or generate any revenue from it.

Yes, and? The Linux version on GOG is missing not one, but three bugfixes that on Steam were uploaded for all three ports and that on GOG were uploaded for Windows and Mac. So what happened? Did the publishers explicitly tell Owlcat Games "please don't bring these three bugfixes on the Linux version on GOG"? Which can be an answer, but as a paying customer, I deserve to receive an explicit answer from developers and/or publishers.

No, the publisher could not say that because Owlcat has been independent since around 2020. They probably worked on 2.1.5 as their last patch. Therefore, anything that happened with the game after that date is the responsibility of Knight's Peak.

Canine seems to be a few updates behind the Steam version. I tried asking on the Steam forums and got no reply.

Star Explorers has been getting a lot of beta updates on Steam but not on GOG. I also tried asking on their Steam forums and also got no reply.

The “Dread X” collections seem to have gotten at least the unity security updates, and maybe some other updates, while the GOG versions don’t seem to have been updated in a while. I tried asking on their discord and last I checked I got no reply.

Besides Owlcat not owning the rights anymore (preventing them from working on it), it looks to me like the "developer" that answered your query is actually from Kinghts Peak (a division of Owlcat's previous owner MY.GAMES), so it's an interesting response

I added the first two games, but for "Dread X Collcetions" I'd rather take some more time to investigate them.

What infuriates me in all this is that none of this explain how is it possible the issue in question exists to begin with. The Linux port was patched on Steam, so a fully patched Linux version of the game exists. The Windows and the Mac ports received the last patches on GOG, so they had access to the GOG release when the last patch was made. So what happened that they just said "let's not patch the Linux version on GOG"?

Bulwark Evolution: Falconeer Chronicles: I ultimately put it on the list since it's missing all updates released after 18 June this year. The publishers first claimed "We are looking into this currently" when they were asked about the updates on GOG, but some weeks later they corrected themselves and said they had no answer. I tried to be understanding, especially since the developer came personally to apologise in the past, but this is getting ridiculous.

inb4 it's something like the "divorce" completing right before the Linux build was forwarded to GOG, and nobody wanted to touch the builds since (i.e. none of them winning and us losing)...

That doesn't actually explain this because (and I realised my previous post was confusing about this, apologise) the Linux port on GOG is not missing one update but three. Regardless of whether the "divorce" had happened or not, there was this short period when someone, whoever the hell that was, had access to the GOG release and intentionally decided to not update the Linux version multiple times.

On a secondary note, I'm not a programmer myself but Kingmaker is a Unity game, and all programmers I heard told me that on Unity it's extremely easy to handle multiple ports of a game.

I wonder how related it is to some "optional" software distributed by GOG on Windows and MacOS, but not on Linux.

I know for sure several publishers already used that as a reason not to provide native Linux builds of games, while said builds are available from Steam.

I think Contraption Maker is _finally_ up to date. In fact at the time of writing I think it's slightly ahead of Steam, as GOG has the Mighty Knights Parts & Puzzles Pack which isn't yet available on Steam.
