Love GOG, definitely the best storefront for PC games by far due to their principles. They're not perfect, but I personally don't buy if it's not on GOG.

Looks like I can pick up Cold Steel 3/4 and Ys 8/9 for good prices this sale, so I know what I'm getting come pay day.

Would love to use it more, but no Linux support. I've tried using it through Lutris, but installing updates is more annoying than it needs to be.

Same. Minigalaxy bridges the gap a little, but it's missing critical features that only GOG could implement. GOG have had Linux gamers pestering them for Galaxy on Linux forever. Seems like a natural fit, but they've ignored it, teased that it's happening, ignored it again... I eventually gave up and went all-in on Steam. Valve have done everything they can to make Linux a class-A member of their ecosystem, so that's where my business goes.

Yep, I'd be glad to see valve have some competition on Linux, but in the meantime I've been greatly appreciating their contributions.
