Install and Play The Witcher 3 Complete Edition (GOG & GOG Galaxy) on Ubuntu Linux 20.04 with Lutris.net and Wine

How to install and play The Witcher 3 (GOG Edition) on Linux

It's really quite simple!

Step 1: Buy The Witcher 3 on gog.com

Simply go to https://www.gog.com/game/the_witcher_3_wild_hunt_game_of_the_year_edition (this should also work with the regular edition) and buy and add the game to your library.

Do NOT click "Download and Install" at this point. We will do this through Lutris.

Summary of 'Clean code' by Robert C. Martin

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.


General rules

  1. Follow standard conventions.
  2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
  3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
  4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Design rules
