This game is really fun, seriously, everyone should play it now.
It gets really tense when you have to choose between augmentations, money etc and staying alive. Succumbing to or fighting the greed :D

Talking point: Leaving user reviews for Linux games can really help a developer

If you don't have the writing or language skills, or you just don't feel analytical, I believe writing a review like this would be much better than nothing:
"Works great on Linux, thanks".
It's not a great review, but shows us the Linux port is solid, shows the devs we appreciate it, and gets them a +1 on their score.
Certainly better than no review.

The Linux version of 'Outer Wilds' is still 'to be determined' despite being a platform on the Fig campaign

I hate to break this to them, but as a graphics developer, I can assure them focusing on windows and xbox means they would be knee deep in microsoft shit, and supporting other platforms would become a nightmare.
That would range from easy-to-fix nonstandardness from their c++ compiler allowing crap to be compiled, all the way to xbox silently ignoring gpu segfaults, or hiding nan values.
Either they have very smart developers to pull this off (but if they were smart, they wouldn't do this), or they will not release outside of the microsoft bubble (not at least for a year).
Not only that, but they will also build around dx semantics, optimize for xbox (slowest console imaginable) and sacrifice every other platform in its name.
So, forget about this game.

This game is nothing but awesome. If you haven't played it, you need to Play it Now!
@pb, played this with a keyboard and mouse and it worked well. Didn't try with a controller.

What are you playing on Linux this weekend and what do you think about it?

Dark fantasy shooter 'Apocryph' released recently with Linux support, it's messy

Your input issue, is it like you press something, release it and then a second after the same action is repeated for a small time? I got this in hollow knight a week or two ago (with a ps4 controller, not sure if it affected anything else), and it turned out to be something broken in steam as there was just a new beta update. Opting out of beta fixed the problem.

> For Linux gamers, I'm not sure if makes much sense picking one up right now. Not only is Linux VR support still quite raw, there's not a great deal of titles available.
It may be hard to raise us above 1% in sales in general, but if many Linux-exclusive gamers buy VR headsets, it would be easy to make us say 20% of VR market. That would be good for us.
We are at a point in history when we are not affected (much) by the chicken&egg problem w.r.t to VR. Not buying headsets because there are few games will only make sure this problem will become a reality for VR as well.
I would encourage people to buy headsets if I were you, Liam.

I can't say anything due to NDAs, but rest assured that that's not true.

Quoting: jensFeral stopping supporting Linux is in my opinion the end of AAA games on Linux.

RAD is awesome. They have a lot of middleware people rely on, and they all support Linux.

You can very well influence that, by implementing it yourself ;)
