I have been really looking forward to playing Legend of Grimrock 2 soon. Unfortunately, the game is not available for Linux yet, and as it seems it's not certain whether we will see it on Linux at all. I have emailed the developers asking about Linux availability, and this is the response I got:
Juho Salila (Almost Human Games)
Hey Kamil,
Unfortunately we can't promise a linux port at this moment.
It's up to you to deduce how likely we are to see a Linux version in the future, but it certainly won't be soon.
Maybe, if there's a strong support under this article, I can send a link back to them and it might convince them a bit more that the demand is here. Or maybe you have better ideas. Anyway, this is really bad news for dungeon crawling fans. :( Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I will not do the same mistake again, sorry guys, I am buying only Linux games now.
Sorry for my bad English, I am little bit angry now :><:
IMO Almost Human CANNOT do this. It's like a slap in the face to release part 1 but not part2.
This news must be a bad joke!!!!!!
I hope Almost Human rethink their decision an don't turn to ALMOST EVIL.
Sorry for my words, but reading this makes me realy speechless and angry.
They wrote "can't promise" not something like "very unlikely".
That's actually my story as well, almost verbatim.

i never liked click and point games, i was looking forward to LoG 2, as i said this is the worst news this month.very dissapointing
That's great indeed, but what Linux would need are games like:
GTA V
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Far Cry 4
+ other big releases huge amount of gamers cares about.
Without big titles like those Steam Machines are going to compete against OUYA.
I would very much like to see LoG 2 on Linux and of course *all* possible games on Linux. LoG 1 was okeish but to me it felt dungeon crawler for casual gamers. Especially if one had experience with dungeon crawlers from 80s/90s.
Exactly. Earlier SteamOS got client updates daily and OS updates at least once in month. Nowadays no updates at all.
SteamOS is far from ready at least on my setup. Daily crashes, stuttering (Big Picture included), performance problems, etc. It is hard to see that final version would be only some months away.
Lack of SteamOS updates and Valve being silent is worrying. Valve has not yet gave any reasons for gamers to wait Steam Machines. DX12 is coming which makes situation even worse.
LoG2 looks promising, but it's sad that developers decided to drop Linux platform. I'm not going to buy it, until they make Linux version. Even if it runs through wine.
Update: Bought the first game, having great time playing it ;) I hope that there will be Linux version of LoG2 eventually.
