    Why would anyone repack a game which does not contain any DRMs and is freely available by using some alternative GOG downloader ?

        I just wasn’t sure since I’ve heard repacks often don’t want to install right on Linux because the repack installers are so heavily Windows-oriented. Not sure how much truth there was to that, so I thought I’d ask.

      runs fine on my setup (R5 5600, RX 570 4 GB) 1080p medium, but I haven’t played it much as it has some weird setup where it wants me to use both keyboard/mouse and controller (prompts me to press B on the gamepad to get out of car) so I continue to shoot peggies; I’ll revisit it some day.

      as to repacks, DODI runs exceptionally well for everything I tried, whereas Fitgirl has some bonehead compression play that a) takes eons to install and b) makes your PC unusable while installing. once installed, there aren’t any discernible differences.
