When playing the demo, I didn't like that I couldn't actually point and click to walk somewhere. The interface felt clunky. And the game itself wasn't exciting enough to cope with that.

Quoting: GrabbyI love Myst-like games and there aren't enough of them, so I'll watch this one with great interest :smile:

I reminded me more of The Room [External Link] (Proton white listed)...

why do I have the feeling that WINE probably supports video in Unity way better than native Unity for Linux? :D

Quoting: NanobangValve knows the world economy is going to tank and has been positioning themselves as the source for Linux gaming because everyone will be out of work, and no one will be able to afford new Windows or Apple machines.:grin:

... or games.

I got no idea why I didn't have this on follow and/or wish list yet! Thanks!

Quoting: sbolokanovAnd unless the publishers keep track for who play via Proton, one is possibly counted as yet another Windows user.

You'll be happy to know that the data available to the publisher from Steam does in fact keep track of how many people are playing on Linux via Proton.

... so the developers/publishers know that they don't need to do any porting or support do have Linux customers.

I'm even thinking about hiding that I'm a Linux user when/if I'd buy a game to play it under Proton.

What I wanted to ask for decades now: Why are game makers using Bink video that much, instead of say MPEG-2 (or whatever was/is available at the respective time)?

I didn't look into Wayland yet, but XWayland is not the real thing, right?
Is it impossible for my graphics card vendor to do full Wayland support while keeping its driver closed?

Quoting: HoriWasn't "it" the neutral one?

"It" is for things (and most animals, I guess), while "they" is for persons with either unknown gender or where it doesn't matter.

I've got a question too, though. Please take it as what it is - purely an interest in the language and its current usage ("they" for persons wasn't a thing when I learned English in school...). I'm not aware of any gender "unusualities" (trans, demi/diverse gender or whatever) of Ethan Lee and think they're male. If that's right, how "usual" is it to use singular they/them in such a case? What would be the wild guess of native speakers which percentage of people would use these words in such a case?

I just wondered yesterday, reading about Apple's new ARM processor: What will Steam be doing?
