Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun - Aiko's Choice standalone expansion announced

It sounded a bit exaggeration to me but it looks like those people are right to be worried. You may or may not break TOS in another service of Google, then entirely unrelated service might delete your entire academic storage. Nightmare...

Quoting: TheSHEEEPA game losing support for a platform doesn't make the game itself any worse. Just like having Linux support on its own doesn't make any game any better.

You do realize this is a site dedicated to Gaming on Linux? Of course a game losing support for a Linux make itself worse for Linux players.
