I've had this question looking at the Quake con sale, and Call of Cthulhu Dark Corners of the Earth is for sale on both platforms. I ended up buying it on GOG. What is your opinion?

When I used Windows I mainly bought on Gog for the DRM-free aspect. Now that I've switched to Linux almost completely, I find Steam's software for running Windows games on Linux to be just about the most seamless and easy to use, compared to other stuff I've tried like Lutris and Heroic Games Launcher.

Same story here. I thought Linux support would be right in line with GoG's philosophy but their stance has been understandable but a bit disappointing. Valve makes it easy for me so they get my money.

They did actually promise a native Linux client years ago. Seems they stopped caring at some point though.
