How is GOG? I haven't used it and have heard noth sides. Owning it alone makes it worth looking at.

It's quite alright, but the platform hasn't really grown in a while outside of its available catalogue. Gog galaxy is still in beta I think and it also still has no Linux launcher yet. Still good for the no DRM part tho

I'm about to blow all windows out of my non-work life. So dunno how good that will mix.

For Linux you can use Heroic if you want a launcher. Otherwise you can just download the installers on their website.
