Anybody knows how well SteamDB port guessing actually works?
Like, how many of the games appearing to get Linux support actually got it, say a year later?

Quoting: BillNyeTheBlackGuyWill it be as bad as their last game?

Hopefully it will, since I loved their last game.

Side note: I don't like implicitly being called stupid for finding a new concept intersting.

Other side note: I'm going to cinema today, which will entertain me for less than two hours(!). And I cannot carry it home and play it back for a lifetime. How stupid is that!?!

That does sound interesting to me.
Imagine the endgame is not one endgame,
repeatable, beatable if you take enough time,
but the endgame.
You either save the world - or you don't.

Quoting: KeyrockGah! So many great looking point & click adventures I want to play (Kentucky Route Zero, The Detail, Knee Deep, The Journey Down) and they're all episodic and none of them have all episodes released yet. And so I wait; I wait until all episodes are out.

I'm doing the same for all of them except Journey Down, of which I bought part 1 when Steam for Linux was very new. And to be honest, I did enjoy both episodes very much. Maybe we should give episodes a chance? Dunno...

I don't know which game it was, but at least one wasn't stating clear enough (for me) that it is incomplete/episodic at the store. Really something that should be enforced by Valve (or other stores).

Quoting: dubigrasuIf a Linux user like me (using Linux for 15 years) is starting to think like that, what can we expect for Linux gaming in general with these delays?

I totally am such a Linux user (my first Debian CD set from 1998 must be lying around here somewhere), but I feel after about 14 years of no professional gaming (I somehow missed the Loki times), I've got plenty of patience. If we're not able to wait, how could we expect it from a freshmate? And in the end, the game's not going to become more expensive over time...

As long as people know what they face - like, in my very humble opinion, the information who pays for it belongs in every artice about the game - I'm fine with that.

Quoting: StianTheDarkIt's a fun game, and I don't see why it would be propaganda. While loading, the game gives you short videos of american soldiers and how their life is. Of course, it's meant to drive people into the army but I don't really think it's working. It's a really fun game anyway, and I'm norwegian, so it doesn't really matter.

According to MIT research, it has more influence on potential recruits than all other advertising of the american army taken together. China, Rusia and India are adopting the method.

It should be mentioned that this game has actually been financed by the USA and is part of their recruiting means. One could call it propaganda.
