I was really hoping to give Torment: Tides of Numenera a go, but it seems I won't be able to since they have launched without Linux support right now. They aren't sure if it will get a Linux version during Early Access or after the final release.

For a Kickstarter campaign that featured Linux everywhere platforms were mentioned, I am a little annoyed. Only a little, as again I didn't back it as this crap happens all the time.

QuoteWe do not currently have an ETA on a Linux version, it may or may not happen during Early Access (it will definitely happen for final release).

About the game (Official)
You are born falling from orbit, a new mind in a body once occupied by the Changing God, a being who has cheated death for millennia. If you survive, your journey through the Ninth World will only get stranger… and deadlier.

With a host of strange companions – whose motives and goals may help or harm you – you must escape an ancient, unstoppable creature called the Sorrow and answer the question that defines your existence: What does one life matter?

Torment: Tides of Numenera is the thematic successor to Planescape: Torment, one of the most critically acclaimed and beloved role-playing games of all time. Torment: Tides of Numenera is a single-player, isometric, narrative-driven role-playing game set in Monte Cook’s Numenera universe, and brought to you by the creative team behind Planescape: Torment and the award-winning Wasteland 2.

I haven't played Planescape: Torment yet, and actually ended up getting a free copy of this game due to backing Bard's Tale 4. Though I have no clue if that entailed early access or not.

Not that it matters, I have almost no time to play games lately :(, though I did spend almost an entire day playing Elite: Dangerous (I know, I have rotted my brain by booting into Windows.... )

Thanks for the tip!

Assuming they can deliver on all they promise, then this sounds like exactly my kind of favorite game-type.

I didn't back the game so I can't be mad. They'll get my money 3 months after a Linux version is available.
