Full Throttle Remastered to release on April 18th, pre-orders exclusive to GOG

I thiiiiink the Linux version will not be day 1, so pre-orders might possibly still just count as Windows sales. Need more info for clarity.

2Dark released without a Linux version despite promising it during crowdfunding

Baaaaad. This is why people sometimes get so cranky about crowdfunding. It really hurts all the legitimate and good projects on KS/gogo/etc.

Well, Andrew is only in a sort of advisory role, he's not actually developing it :)

In fact, the original was developed by Andrew Braybrook, who is not on this project at all.

Such negativity. If I were a dev doing a Kickstarter reading all this, I'd probably just not bother trying to support Linux since it looks like Linux users are a bunch of cranky assholes that most likely won't support the Kickstarter to begin with.

We know this is not true though, but daaang does it ever look that way.

I will continue to support Kickstarters that look like they have promise, using my good judgement.

I just discovered this last night when I found out Steamworld Dig did not work with my XBox Elite pad. It's really simple and great.

Quoting: artvandelay440Interesting, for sure, but I urge everyone- the list of kickstarter funded games promising Linux support only to back out after we fund it, is a long one. No Tux, no bux.

I have backed many projects and have never had this happen on any of them. I know there are some, but I find it hard to believe that it's a particularly long list.

Steel Division: Normandy 44 RTS announced by Paradox & Eugen Systems (UPDATED)

So glad Eugen are with Paradox now - it's a much better fit for their games than Focus was.

And on that I frickin' love the Wargame series, even though I such at them. Keeping an optimistic eye on this one.

Cities: Skylines - Mass Transit DLC announced, adding more transport possibilities
28 February 2017 at 5:25 pm UTC

Quoting: EndeavourAccuracyNot my kind of game. The base game, Cities: Skylines, has had a -75% sale, but you'd need to pay extra for their "Deluxe Edition", just to get a more complete experience with 5 extra historical monuments. A full experience requires DLC on top of that: 62.93 euros, plus whatever "Mass Transit" will cost. There's a bundle, but it lacks 5 o/t DLC and is still 68.20 euros. Maybe 10 years from now when the whole thing including all its DLC is 10 euros I'll pick it up.

The base game is complete enough. I only grabbed the Night Life DLC and still get loads of enjoyment from it.

What? DOS2 on linux?

They have not committed to it AFAIK, but considering all the effort put into porting the engine, it's a reasonable assumption to make.

Quoting: DelaylineAnother Shadowrun like bullshit, thank you inXile.

a) This is not quite Shadowrun
b) Shadowrun is great, so if it were like Shadowrun, that's a big win!
c) your opinion is valid as an opinion, of course
