Quoting: melkemind

QuoteI can't blame them, it will probably give them more income right now, but I do wish developers would stop promising one platform, then side-lining it for another.

If that's their actual reason for delaying it, I certainly can blame them. They've already made $50 million on this game. If greed is their only motivation, then they're not very honorable.

I'm hoping the reason is, like most good games that get delayed, they need more time to polish it rather than releasing something that is buggy and half-working.

Guys, be reasonable they made a humble 50 million jk. Agreed. I know Linux people who bought the Steam Controller and are awaiting playback.

If it doesn't come out before XBONE version that will be unacceptable, their reputation will be chared if so.

Quoting: OrkultusI'm hoping that since the new Final Fantasy 7 remake is made on the Unreal Engine 4, that we might have a chance to get a port as well. It's asking alot, but i will keep hoping.

Wut? They're Making a new FF7 and they're also making it on UE4? Shiiii

If they remade 8 too I would trip balls. 8 is in my top 2 RPGs ever.

I swore they would never do a FF7 Remake as the story is too Anti-American about Terrorism and revolting against a corrupt government who is killing the planet just like I don't expect to see another Dune after 9/11 (A group of Sand people with middle-eastern names rise up against a corrupt and greedy government), Nope all we get in America anymore is this Hunger Games, American Propaganda 3 Part 1 of part 2 QQ :(

Quoting: TheBossResident Evil would also be extremely welcome, who knows what the future holds. Having games like this will certainly make us look more interesting though.

Also a big "watch" on my list. I remember good times playing Resident Evil on PlayStation 1, the mystery and tension were really well woven into that game.

It would be crazy to see remakes of old games like Parasite Eve, I think we're ballin pretty good already though as a Console :)

I notice a huge trend with these XCOM camera style FPS games, is this really a thing people love or is it a fad?

I like my old school FPS made in the image of Golden Eye 64, which reminds me when will Golden Eye Source land? Ha I can't wait but I think they're dead in the water :( Black Mesa Linux version too :(

Looks nice, I prefer sprite based RTS games.

Definitely love that it uses AOE II assets.

Want to play.

These frequent updates are sure garnishing regular attention from blogs & the Linux world.

I think it's good because the prestige of working on a primary Foss project will surely draw additional hands.

Similar to how Ubuntu took the spotlight with 6 month advertising campaigns.

Quoting: AsavarTzeth

Quoting: HoriAlso, can't Valve just develop their own DE and make it very lightweight and make interaction between the game and the kernel as direct as possible (still via the DE, but with less bloat) ?

They already have their own custom compositor that is used on SteamOS.

Quoting: HoriI know they have Big Picture but AFAIK it still runs on GNOME. And having their own DE has other benefits too, as they will have full control over it's development, and can make it as gaming-friendly as possible.

Incorrect. Gnome does not run by default and it is in its own tty (tty7) while SteamOS runs on a lightweight compositor in tty8.

I'm not sure that is entirely a statement of fact. When using LightDM greeter the Session launches on TTY7 yeah, but when using GDM the session launches on TTY1 and each additional session TTY2, etc.. at least on my Arch setup that's how it is and you can have 2 users logged in on different sessions at the same time on eg, TTY2 and TTY3.

"You will also be able to select and share community configs for non-Steam games soon too"

Well, hot dog.
