The Minigalaxy is a really good Linux alternative to GOG Galaxy. I'm using the flatpak version of Minigalaxy for some time and it's really nice app to manage GOG library. :-)

Quoting: ssj17vegetaEven though I genuinely appreciate RMS and the FSF for all their work so far, if these allegations are true, I am completely on board with this : toxic and unrespectful people should not be examples to follow. Respecting people regardless of their skin colour, sex or gender SHOULD be a top priority in any business or association.

What about respecting opinions of others? RMS have different opinions on some things and you need someone who thinks out of the box, otherwise the diversity will not work. If he thought like others, we never had any FSF or OSI or GNU. We should embrace the people who are thinking differently not trying to lynch them.

I like how they are talking about diversity and inclusion in one sentence and in other sentence they want to exclude someone for his different opinions and behavior. It's kind of funny :-D

I started playing it recently and it really has the same vibe as the Minecraft had on the beggining. Most of the things I missed in Minecraft are done correctly in Valheim, for example opening of the crafting recipes when you find the ingredients for first time.

I just hope they will make terrain changes a bit easier.

Quoting: ZlopezI just hope there will be any available with the crypto miners going crazy.

If only AMD could do something to the drivers to make it uninteresting for miners.

(sorry, couldn't resist )

It will be even better if they introduced cards without graphical output that will be specialized for mining and costing less than gaming GPUs.

NVIDIA already started doing this, but the mining cards aren't out yet and have worse performance than GTX 3080. So we will see if they would at least be cheap, so the miners would go for the mining cards instead of gamer cards.

I never had any luck with the Vulkan API, it just crushed for me. I will try it again with the new version and report the bug if the game is still crashing for me. It's the only game with Vulkan that I have issue with, which is strange.

Quoting: Liam DaweUpdate: Feral Press replied to our question about cross-platform online support, as traditionally their ports are locked for Linux/macOS and Windows by itself. Here's what they said:

QuoteWe do not have anything to announce in regards to the support of the cross-platform multiplayer.

Should the situation change, we will make an announcement on our official site and social media channels.

I would be very surprised if Creative changed anything to allow it. It's almost certainly a choice of their middleware or some compiler option, and they wouldn't be in any hurry to make engine changes if they can avoid it. Shitty situation, but not surprising.

Zilch that Feral can do on the matter unfortunately.

This could be probably easily fixed by creating a option to have dedicated server. This issue is because of different timing of some Windows/Linux kernel commands, which results in lost of synchronization between clients. If you have one server synchronizing the clients you can get rid of this issue. But the dedicated servers are not that common now except for competitive multiplayer games.

But as you saying this is a choice of Creative Assembly not something Feral could do.

I was glad to see that Steam page already mentions Linux. It's a happy world to live in. :-)

This is something that just made my day, I spent plenty of hours on both previous games and was eager for the third one. I just hope they will polish all the issues they had in previous two, especially the diplomacy from Three Kingdoms would be nice to see here.
