Please fully support the steam deck
Since I got a Steam Deck, I haven't bought a game on GOG, which sucks.
Damn, now I understand, why I had to but Witcher 3 on Steam, and not here :(
Until GoG does anything to support getting their games on Linux I can't justify spending money here instead of on Steam. Valve has been kicking ass on Linux support, and in a FOSS way that happens to make it easier for GoG titles to run too. Compared to galaxy not even having a native client from GoG.
I was switching to <a href="http://GOG.com" class="light_un" target="_blank">GOG.com</a> and purchased Cyberpunk, The Witcher and some other games, but quickly stopped when I realized there's not native support for Linux. Unfortunate.
Please add support for Steam Deck. Current using an alternative launcher and Proton GE / QT. I would love it you could add a launcher that works which adds cloud saves and a store front. <br /> <br /> TLDR: Add a linux launcher and storefront for GOG Galaxy on your SDLC roadmap. QA/Test on Steam Deck. More coins will be tossed to you, witcher / CDProjekt Red!
Indeed, Steam deck support would certainly be welcome. Moreover, it would also be interesting for Gog itself because you have a lot of retro games that Steam does not have. I don't know what the possibilities are because quite a few games are still from the DOS era.
Steam deck + linux support, thanks.
More support for steam deck would be cool. Being able to play games on handhelds and Linux goes hand in hand with what makes games free from DRM so appealing, more freedom.
People who think GOG will ever support Linux are mentally retarded, GOG staff and manage hate Linux and wish it would go away.
Linux is a platform worth supporting for preservation. It's a hell of a lot more futureproof than windows when it comes to supporting older applications. It'd be really cool if you had a linux client with proton integration and a solution for pre-compiled shaders. When you are in a position where it's possible that'd be neat.
Please support the Steam Deck.
literally switched from primarily buying GOG to looking at steam first since owning the deck for newer games.
steam is gog's competitor. F the steamdeck, don't support other companies.
You can install GOG and GOG games directly via Steam, no need for 3rd party software: <a href="https://youtu.be/9axzR5maUOc" class="light_un" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/9axzR5maUOc</a> Yes, this method works with cloud saveing, autoupdate, etc.
As much as I would love to see full Steam Deck support, which means a native Linux client which can be used via controller, I believe it won't happen. <br /> <br /> There is another big wish with over 33.000 votes for a native Linux client. For over 9 years nothing happened. For some years this wish was tagged 'in progress', but a few month ago the tag was removed. <br /> <br /> GoG doesn't care about Linux users. I realized this years ago and didn't buy a single game on this platform since - which is a shame because I love the DRM free aspect of GoG. <br /> <br /> Yes, you can run your GoG games on the Steam Deck via Heroic Launcher or Lutris. But you won't have auto updates. Heroic Launcher startet to support cloud saves a while ago, but I don't have any experience if this works properly. <br /> <br /> I you use GoG on multiple Linux devices (Steam Deck and Desktop PC), you are faced with several inconveniences. Steam is currently the best solution for Linux users.
Sorry GOG, will halting all purchases till you give us a solution here. I can't get some games working, that i explicitely remember having them bought on GOG and not on steam - and now i can't play them on my preferred device.
lol GOG games are already equally playable on the Deck as Steam games. <br /> <br /> people's idea of "support" seems to be "has to come preinstalled in the box". like that's going to happen.
I'm still buying GOG games despite playing on the steam deck, and this is a bit of an inconvenience because I need to have GOG galaxy running in the backround if I want to log playtime, cloud saves and achievments. Also I need to change controller layout everytime I launch a different game. <br /> So while it is doable to play GOG games on the steam deck right now, it would be really quite useful to have GOG developing its own gaming mode and shader compilation for the steam deck.
GOG is about *old games as-is*, not porting to completely new platforms. Sane people recognize that linux is still not a gaming platform worthy of much consideration, certainly not enough for GOG to waste their resources porting old to ancient Windows & DOS games to linux. Put the pipe down and step away.
One more vote! Please
There are Windows based alternatives to the Steam deck which fully support GOG games.
I'm a big fan of GOG since day one. But I have less and less time for video games. And the Steam Deck is such a huge addition to my life. A quick pc gaming session was never easier than with the steam deck. And after a long day working at a desk job, it's just amazing that I can play pc games on the couch or some other comfortable place. As much as it hurts me - until gog introduces support for linux gaming and by extension the steam deck, I will no longer buy anything on GOG.
It doesn't work like that GOG never open sourced their Galaxy API so it would be illegal for Valve to make there own version of Galaxy that runs on Linux.
I'm not going to buy more games on GOG until there's official support for steam deck, and that's it, let the wallets do the talking
Yes, please support the Steam Deck. Because of the Steam Deck, I've stopped buying a ton of games on GOG because they aren't compatible. I'd return to my normal habits but I love the Steam Deck.
I don't understand how GOG did not develop a linux based launcher compatible with the deck. They could have made tons of money with people buying games for the deck. All my money goes to Steam now and I'm really annoyed that I have to buy GOG games again on Steam just to play them without fiddling around.
Other way around. Steam deck should support all games and launchers.
I love my steam deck and the heroic launcher was the key reason. Since I got it I purchased new games on gog to play on the steam deck. Having a GOG-supported platform that would let the community vet working games would be amazing.
Yes, support Steam Deck please. I've much less incentive to purchase from GOG if the Steam version is more likely to work on my Steam Deck, and like it or not the Steam Deck has changed PC gaming-- possibly forever.
I'm also with the guys in this thread. We need native support from GoG on SteamDeck.
*Valve* doesn't even fully support the steam deck. Why would you expect a competitor to do so?
Wake me up when Heroic Games Launcher, Lutris and Minigalaxy can do cloud saves, achievements and multiplayer.
Came to GOG because of my steam deck purchase to pick up some games drm-free! GOG support for the deck would make me more likely to purchase more games from my favourite pc games store. Unfortunately A few I have purchased didn't work for me on deck :(
GoG Deck when?
Yes please. I used to make it a point to purchase games on GoG instead of Steam since I prefer their attitude on DRM. But since getting a Steam Deck I've had to take a 180 on that stance for ease of use with my Steam Deck. For me at least it's a loss of potential income for GoG and I'd also love to return to their store and bring all of my GoG Library to my Steam Deck!
Rather not, they need to invest in other areas where it is needed instead of forcing Steam to become a bigger monopoly with requirements and privacy infringing party. <br /> (Note that third party tools are violation btw)
A straight forward way to play GOG games on Steam Deck without third party tools like "Heroic Launcher" would be amazing.
Please support the Steam Deck! I'm sure I'm not the only one who will sadly leave behind GOG because of a lack of easy functionality with the Steam O/S.
Please, add support for Steam OS. <br /> I am unable to use save sync on Witcher 3 and unable to install Cyberpunk. <br /> Always thought it would be better to buy games on GOG.
I really like buying from GoG but now that I have a steam deck I highly doubt like be buying the GoG version.
@DeathMasta_187 Have you tried Heroic Launcher? It's not perfect but it will let you play GOG and Epic games from the Steam Deck. Youtube has dozens of how-to install videos just by searching 'heroic launcher steam deck.' If you are going that route, use Proton GE 7.1 as it tends to play nicer with a wider range of games.
as a linux user and steam deck owner- linux version of galaxy would be nice
Iv been a gog customer since they were in beta, thats how strongly I believe in DRM free games. Up until I got a steam deck I really only used galaxy as a way to backup my saves to the cloud. It was a nice to have feature but largely went unnoticed by me (this is a good thing because it just worked). But now that I have a deck and im device switching a bunch now, its turned a nice to have feature into a critical feature. Not having this for me gog games stings in a way where I'm considering not buying games on gog anymore because of how criical this is for me. <br /> <br /> @GOG ride the wave valve has created instead of fighting against it. Because steam deck and steamOS is here and here to stay and I know will be part of my gaming arsenal for the foreseeable future. This is coming from a long time customer who wants to keep being your customer.
@KikubaMutwe ETA Prime on YT has done a video on how to install Emulationstation to the Deck and how to add it to the Steam Library: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSx_zJtKZM0" class="light_un" target="_blank"><br /> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSx_zJtKZM0</a> <br /> <br /> Hope this helps!
yes pretty please with sugar on top :D it's a good pc (the steam deck) for playing on the go and being able to play gog games on it easily with support for the controller, would be awesome!
Please , add support of steam-deck ! I have full collection cd project red games in GOG. I suppose it's very cool, when we can gaming our games on steam deck. Thanks
I just got a Steam Deck and would love to have easy access to my GOG collection. I would be happy to switch to Desktop mode to download my GOG games to the Steam Deck so long as they can be easily accessed via the Gaming mode interface with controller/input customization support. <a href="http://EmuDeck.com" class="light_un" target="_blank">EmuDeck.com</a> does similar for ROMs, so I recommend having a look at how that works for inspiration.
Please, support Steam Deck. We are a big community who want to play GOG games with cloud sync!
I have had my Steam Deck for a few months now but haven't played any of my GoG games because I haven't bothered to install the Heroic Launcher. I have 1,700+ games on Steam so I have been playing with those for now, I would love to use my GoG library though.
Please Support the Steam deck! I bought Witcher 3 on gog so they would get more money, but now I wish I got it on steam as my steam deck is on the way. I will try using Heroic app to install gog games on it but some official support like Galaxy app on there app interface and also some controller support it would be amazing. Love GOG and would love them to support the steam deck users somehow
