We already gave you confirmation that Stronghold 3 Gold was heaving to Linux, but in the past week it seems there has been more progress.

On the SteamDB entry for it a few days ago this popped up:
QuoteChanged App Config
launch/2/config/oslist: linux
launch/2/description: Stronghold 3
launch/2/executable: stronghold3


Hopefully we won't be kept waiting too long to try it. The reviews are a bit mixed on it, so hopefully the Linux version will be fixed up.

I am with Hamish on this one. Companies like Frozenbyte and Playdead that put what is seemingly considered above and beyond extraordinary effort for their ancient games may have my money, whereas the others may not. Simple.

Yes, and I do not think it can be considered entitled of us to expect this when we do actually support the developers that do give us the level of support we want. I was one of the harshest critics of putting a Crossover wrapper into a Humble Bundle, but here I am cheering Playdead on now and being very happy to be able to do so.

I can hear the counter that it is better to simply have more games on Linux and that we should just be glad of anything we get, but then again, this is Stronghold 3 we are talking about which to be honest is pretty much reviled even on Windows. Now, if they made a WINE wrapper release of the original Stronghold or Stronghold: Crusader, well, that might be a different matter...

Now, those games I would agree are old.
