Finally! I no longer need to use Wine for my most-played game. :D

No editor/mod loader (and so no workshop support), but standalone mods work. Some of us provide standalone download links on our workshop pages, or you can check turokforums.com or turoksanctum.com.

Quoting: devnull"Henti" on DDG returns one single, rather vague result from Wikipedia about some Queen.

That's because it's spelled "hentai" (which DDG will actually suggest, but only if safe search is off).

Quoting: WarpigIt's because pedophilia is a huge problem right now...world wide. Did you see the news about the bishops in Chile? They all resigned over sex abuse. Maybe your not paying attention...There is an elite pedophilia ring that traffics children for sex and then engages in organ harvesting.

And I'm sure they all got the idea from playing HuniePop.

Wasn't the pre-order bonus for this game just a gag weapon that instantly ends the game in victory when fired? Not really something to fuss about missing out on, I think.

They came through! And half off to boot? I'm sold. :)

Quoting: GuestI can understand why this game isn't available on GOG atm, afterall it is in Beta

Sure, I don't expect beta versions on GOG, but they make it sound like they don't plan to release on GOG at all. I know GOG does their own testing, but it seems to like as long as they've done the work of porting the game, they might as well at least submit it and give it a chance to pass or not on its own merits.

The game's already on GOG. Why would adding the Linux version there not be a given?

I don't want to be too harsh -- I am thankful that we're getting a Linux version at all -- but between this and the previous inconsistent communication on Linux support, it feels like we're always pulling teeth with this dev.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI'm 40 years old and I can tell you that Vr was a commercial failure, is a commercial failure and will be a commercial failure, because of the high price of the hardware needed, and because the human is an animal of habits...

Are you from an alternate reality where personal computing never happened? Where smart phones never happened?

Really sad to see people dismissing this as nothing more than nostalgia pandering. Most "retro" shooters these days are either linear sequences of arenas or rogue-likes, and most modern shooters are dull roller coasters more interested in spectacle than gameplay. If Ion Maiden can reproduce the intricate level design of Duke 3D, Shadow Warrior, and Blood, it'll be something special, irrespective of its visual aesthetic. Dusk is the only other game I know of that's even trying to do something similar.

It's cool if it's not your style of game, but I don't think it's fair to dismiss an entire style of FPS that's currently woefully underrepresented just because this particular one has pixels.

Quoting: Leopardif this can help a bit ; why not?

That's the question. An "automagic" statistic could reveal interest that voluntary participation in an obscure +1 thread buried in a forum might not, but on the other hand false negatives like the ones I mentioned coupled with the confidence of the almighty "analytics" could do more harm than good.

I'm not saying this is gonna doom Linux gaming or anything -- we're a small niche no matter how you slice it -- I just question the implementation.
