Sorry, don't see it. Looks normal to me.

Unity3D game engine hardware statistics updated, shows Linux is very low

Quoting: TakI believe that the bulk of the recent "unknown" hits come from a dart game on a kiosk-like installation produced by a Korean company, using a custom distribution. So, the stats are actually accurate: unknown distro, 1368x1536 portrait, 4GB ram - it's just that Korean virtual darts players (or maybe other places as well; I'm not sure how broadly the machines are distributed) outnumber Linux PC gamers 4:1.Interesting, thanks for sharing, didn't even occur to me to think about arcade machines and such. Weird that they are connected up and phoning home, guess arcade machines are a different class to what I played when I was younger.

These surveys are completely different.
The Steam survey is not bound by what games people are running. Or what games are available.
The Unity survey is specifically from Unity games, and a lot aren't on Linux, so it's obvious Linux is at a disadvantage in the survey making it flawed.

Quoting: tomtommeQuoting: LukeNukemLe sigh.
Yes, this statistic is seriously skewed due to small number of Linux games compared to Windows.
Now if they could release stats for *only* cross-platform games, that number would be very different.
Huh?
Since when is that an argument?
Only 30% of steam games are on linux and that was never a problem for the Steam HW survey numbers interpretation. And why should it be?
This is about pc gaming per-OS market share. Not about linux-games-only per-OS market share.

Don't Starve: Shipwrecked Expansion sails out of Early Access, Linux supported

That's actually for my mouse ;)

Quoting: HomepcgamerI do have a big soft spot for Don't Starve, especially as we played Don't Starve: Together for GamingOnLinux 6th birthday (see this picture).
Reminder... You have to plug in your laptop... the battery is dying! hehe :D

Whatever their intentions in other parts of their business, open source should be applauded when it's as useful as this.
Linux now has 2,000 games on Steam, big milestone

Quoting: Grimfist2.000 games, this is amazing. And yes, we need more day-1 releases, this is true.I think Albion Online will help with people who want a WoW-like on Linux, but I don't suggest it until the full release due to character wipes.
And yes, I am also missing WoW (although working mostly good with Wine) and Blizzard games in general on Linux. But this won't change in the future sadly.
Wyrmsun, the retro-themed & open source RTS is now free on Steam

That's why I like it too :)

Quoting: omer666In fact graphics are what made me install it, Warcraft II being one of the games I played the most while being a teen-ager, along with the first Quake.
That's why I like it too :)
