Price of success. Seems pretty cleverly handled, actually.

Hi Liam,

I totally got your point! Still I do hope controversial issues may still be possible to discuss.

Ah nice, I was trying to think of something relaxing to play tonight that's not my usual go-tos - Eu/Am Truck Simulator.

It's been so long that this game has been released that I forgot there was going to be a Linux version. Better late than never, which means I will buy it if released on GOG, I'm glad they finally got around to finish it.

This is what No Man's Sky could have been at the least. Cannot wait!!

Quoting: Ads20000Also, making someone's Gravatar their avatar by default instead of the blankish one would be nice (just enabled it manually, but many sites do it by default, would be nice if this site did too!)

I'm glad you mentioned this! I agree completely. I actually didn't even realize gravatar was an option.

What is the performance like for those that have tried it? I seem to get around 15-30FPS on low settings at 1080.

This is really good. I hope once all the native titles are working they will show some love for Rage and Doom and basically any other game using idtech through wine. I managed to hack the shaders on Rage with a guide from the now defunct website gearsongallium.com. But I was getting weird tiled corruption that I never managed to find a fix for.

I know there is a branch of mesa for testing Doom on radv but that doesn't look like its ever going to be merged. :-(

Quoting: ziabiceI'm already sold!

Message to the devels: please add a "Sniper" type Mech that can only fire from long distance. Maybe a one that has a shape like two legs and a big cannon over it.

Catapult?

Quoting: liamdaweToxic posts often end up being voted up constantly (a major issue I have with reddit). I really don't think it's a system that works.

Hear, hear.

If it's not related to deals with partners which they can't discuss, usually those reasons are related to the fact that they exclude some people ;) I personally don't see anything wrong with admitting that fact though.

Quoting: ShmerlExplained, but not satisfactory IMHO. Feral are probably reading this thread, and if it's something as simple as provided guesses, they can confirm or correct them.

They are a company, they aren't about to give details on all aspects of their business. There's plenty of reasons why companies don't like telling people everything about their decision making. For one, someone will always make a big fuss of it.

Anyway, i think this has been debated enough for me :)

Quoting: Hugormlevel of toxic posts... I hate censer. mebi look to slashdot. I really like there system for not blocking but intend there lvl system so man don't see bad posts if man not won to.

We will never do a level/points system, ever. We had discussions about it before and I personally really hate them. Toxic posts often end up being voted up constantly (a major issue I have with reddit). I really don't think it's a system that works. What we have now does generally work very well.

Quoting: skinnyrafReading through spoilers here, I have just realised that the sequel might mean that DONTNOD will have to spoil it, which ending is "canonical".

Unless they sidestep it completely by telling an unrelated story of someone else who can rewind time...

I think they indicated back then that a potential follow-up would involve new characters.

Spoiler, click me

I am not even sure if they can reuse the rewind time theme, as the first game established the flow of time as impossible to change in the long run. Which means we'd -again- end up with a game where nothing you do matters in the end.

Quoting: Shmerl

Quoting: liamdaweIf Feral do port a game that is on both Steam and GOG I'm sure the Linux version will get on GOG too. I wouls hope so at least.

Yes, it's something I implicitly expect too. So it's not about "why Feral's Linux version isn't on GOG while Windows one is", but about their preference of porting Steam only games.

Which has also been explained plenty, hence my point about going in circles ;)

Quoting: liamdaweThere is no conspiracy and no coincidence, it's business and they don't generally port games that are on GOG.

That's exactly what I was saying. Unlike some here, who claim that current situation is random and it just "happens" that Feral didn't release any game through DRM-free stores yet.

Then email Feral and have a chat with them? Making up conspiracy theories here does nothing about it ;)

There is no conspiracy and no coincidence, it's business and they don't generally port games that are on GOG. This has all been pointed out and you're making it go in circles now.

Quoting: Doc AngeloAs you said yourself, they can only make a proposition to port a game.

Then you'd need to claim it's a coincidence. But I'm not convinced. See above, answer from Feral themselves which makes it clear it's not.

Quoting: Guest

Quoting: UltraVioletthis time i was shot down instantly with a very short sentence from the owner and i felt my view [while being in the minority] didnt matter

That exact same thing happened to me here. Was pretty unprofessional to say the least.
Long time ago now though, and I won't go into it any more.

Some people just think their ideas have to be done though, but as the owner I have to stop somewhere and I cannot implement everything people want. Not only that, but some ideas are just bad.

If you're unhappy with something, you can PM me any time.

It's a pity Liam (et al.?) must spend time acting as a parent for people one would have thought were worthy of the epithet "civilized." Still, this is what magazine and newspaper editors have been doing with "letters to the editor" and "opinion" sections of their periodicals since the beginning. Shouting matches, bullying, and thuggery only detract and distract from a healthy society, be it online or off.

P.S. The first thing I do upon signing in at Reddit is hit "New" because I'm more interested in what's new than what's popular. ;)

Quoting: liamdawe

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionTo moderate unwanted comments or to shut down opposition?

Opposition and debate is fine and natural and I've had near zero complaints about our moderation in the years we've done this.

One site, one community, one OS ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Quoting: ShmerlAs far as I know, Feral choose it. Which differs from porting companies which are hired to port something. In case of Feral, they propose other gaming companies to port the game (and to bear all the costs for it), and in return they ask to share the profit from Linux sales (however they measure that). At least that's how I understood it, others can correct me if that's wrong.

As you said yourself, they can only make a proposition to port a game. They can't choose to do it on their own. Technically and legally.

If the information from "http://steam.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games" is correct, Feral made several Mac ports for Games that are without DRM: Batman - Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition, Rayman® Origins, Fable - The Lost Chapters and Sid Meier's Railroads.

Tenebrae has been on my wishlist forever. Indeed, I've held off playing Two Worlds at all until the promised enhancements and Tenebrae have been released. I'm really looking forward to this one.

Quoting: wojtek88

Quoting: razing32

Quoting: wojtek88I have finished the game in about 90%, from main plot I haven't finished only the last mission.
I haven't finished it because...
I don't have much time to play recently and whenever I start the Dying Light to finish last mission, the scenario is the same:
I start the mission and play it like any other mission. On the map there is a suggestion, that always points me to wrong place and I get mad and turn off the game...

However the game is golden and I can recommend it to everyone.

The game is good and the night sections really make you afraid of the super zombies.

As for the final mission , sorry to say but it is a mess. You're not missing out on that one.

Did you play the DLC yet ?

Nope, I haven't. Honestly very often I skip DLC's. The only DLC's I enjoy are those that provide story extension, like White March part I and II in Pillars of Eternity, or Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine in Witcher 3.
Is the Following similar to those extensions? I own it, but didn't manage to give it a try yet.

I have the "Following" expansion but did not try it out yet.
From what I read it does add new story , weapons and gameplay.
So this might be your cup of tea.
