Quoting: Nyapmeh. only noobs use tools like this. if you want to make a game, learn how to program you lazy nerds

If you look at the credits for any major game, you will notice that "programmer" makes up a minority percentage of the total roles involved. Just saying. Tools like this help creative people create.

Surely a delay alone is no reason to sound so despondent. If it were cancelled, or the delay turned out to be huge... then, sure. Cheer up, you probably have butt-tonnes of other things to play while you wait.

Haven't been around long have we? Delays often see more delays, and then more delays.

Still getting yourself down over a thing that has not happened yet.

Firewatch is also a good "couples" kind of game.

Hah, the "Multiple operating systems" slide in the video shows several specific Linux distros, plus a generic tux icon. :)

Quoting: zebI have a serious rendering bug (and contacted Feral about it) which makes it unusable.

...

Any idea?

Oh I know what's happening here. You are running it on a ZX Spectrum. :D

If you set the quality to Minimal and then set Texture Quality to High and enable FXAA and Bloom it runs well without looking too crummy. Not ideal but might be ok until they patch it properly.

Quoting: Mountain Man

Quoting: kshadeDid they fix Steam Controller support under Linux?

I was wondering about that myself. They're aware of the problem in Eurotruck Simulator 2 and have said they're working on it, but no fix yet.

There seems to be a general controller issue on Linux. I got opentrack head tracking working via my Android phone, which sets up a virtual controller at /dev/input/js2 but ETS2 does not see it at all.

Quoting: PlintslchoIt's just that I don't find the idea of doing such a job on the computer a whole lot of fun.

With *TS it's not so much about doing the job though. What usually happens is that you get totally absorbed in your surroundings as you drive. Your mind gradually goes from unfocused to focused, and then your body starts to unwind. It's an almost entirely stress-free game too. You can crash, or run out of fuel, or run out of money, but for the most part these things are more to serve as flavour than challenge. The audience for this is not hardcore simulation enthusiasts, it's people who just want to chill for a few hours.
