Quoting: Asuso isometric games are really back. Good, maybe it will be ready by the time I finish tortment lol...
Also I would really need a mobile client...

Hey, I am still in Pillars expansions, I got quite a track ahead.

Quoting: poke86Personnal rule : If there isn't a playable Linux demo I'm not backing it.

If they mean to deliver a year from now (august 2018), dev is probably pretty far along. Let's hope they have cross-platform tools.

As Alexey Drobyshevsky is there, my bet goes that they will be using Unity. Hope they didn't opt for middleware which isn't cross platform yet.

Will buy after release of at least a beta, for I do not know the studio.

I do not support studios with zero experience. I have had too many games kickstarted for Linux which were never released at all for Linux, so I got careful about that.

Well, they're right. But it was back the days, and I think we learned to be calmer by now. I remember that I was pretty disappointed that I couldn't play it on my rig (even meeting the specs), but kept my manners. It was one of the first AAA we got and everyone was looking forward to it. It was the first port we got really having huge issues. VP being new, not really native (I still say who cares as long as it works reasonably well), and the release was bad didn't help.

I think a lot of us learned in the past years. I was rather grateful that VP invested a lot of time and effort in fixing up TW2.

I hope VP has learned of their mistake pushing out the release with a performance like that isn't good. And I hope we've learned to work constructively with devs rather than being rude, bad attitude does not help, it gets us nowhere.

I best liked the "someone will play it in the work render farm" :D.
I was often thinking on trying that one actually XD.

For driver openness:
I do care for driver openness. The graphics drivers are part of my core system, Games are not.
If I have a choice to decide between a company opening up and supporting open source drivers over a company who does not, I'll prefer the one supporting open source development. In this case AMD.

What I like as well, AMD certainly isn't where NVidia is yet, but we do see game developers actually helping with issues they find, fixing issues they have with Mesa (Feral as example), making their games work improving the drivers. We've seen some games having issues with NVidia driver not getting a fix for a certain issue they encounter. They'd have the option to fix it themselves in Mesa, they don't for NVidia.

I still have a NVidia card, and ye, I have issues with quite some games on AMDGPU/Mesa still. Some run great, some have performance issues and some don't at all. I'm willing to take that and still use AMD. I will buy a AMD card next time as well, and just hope for Mesa to become better - and it does become better each release.

Yea, sad the issues on AMDGPU and/or newer libs. I still could not figure out whats wrong, maybe we will get it fixed at some point.

Not refunding yet, I still have time and seeing that they do care I have hope for it to work some day. Could be a Mesa/AMDGPU issue too.

Still have the crash-at-startup issue I reported earlier.

Will try to invest some time into that one as soon as I get around it.
