Quoting: Liam Dawe

Quoting: CaenthThey have been on Epic store for ~9 months now and after their exclusivity deal wears off they going to release with Early Access on Steam? What the hell is wrong with game development nowadays?! A lot, I tell you. I like my indie developers as much as you do, and I fully realize they need to earn their keep, but this smells. There is something called integrity and I don't see it here.

I don't get the issue? It's no different than any other game entering Early Access.

The whole idea of Early Access has been warped due to many games entering practically done. Early Access was originally meant for games actually in development.

Taking an exclusive deal doesn't suddenly make game development different.

So, Epic exclusively had an alpha version?

I don't know if it's already been covered, but I found this interesting...
... the product we had been developing together privately for over two years. [External Link]

(Didn't read through all messages yet...)

Since it gets emailed in often: I’m currently waiting to hear back from Valve about answering a few questions. They have the questions, just waiting on answers. Unsure if it will happen or not, so fingers crossed on that one.

Does this include questions about other compatibility tools?
I'd love to have AGS as an easy to use tool to play adventures not ported to Linux...!

Quoting: orochi_kyoBut if you still think Gabe is taking the money to buy an island in the Caribbean, maybe we can suggest Valve to fire Pierre Lois Griffais and everyone who is working on Linux stuff, to give a better cut to those "poor" devs.

While i appreciate Valve's efforts, Gabe Newell, estimated for 3.5 billion dollars, sure could buy one or another island, while there are quite some development studios closing down or having to sell themselves to large companies (like Microsoft).

Quoting: scaineThat and I think I was bit fatigued by having just finished the awesome Shadowrun Returns, and subsequently the equally awesome Shadowrun Dragonfall.

You did play Hong Kong as well?

Quoting: toorThis game has one of the worst rating I have ever seen. Everybody spit on it, critics, players.

Its launch problems crippled its rating, bit it's had nothing positive reviews since hotfix 3 came out. I'm looking forward to trying it.

43% positive overall,
66% lately.
It seems it at least got less bad.

I came here to say that they won't release the games to Linux, but...

Stadia Base requires you to buy all your games as normal

... this does sound like they might have to.
Do we know if we can buy them from Google (so there's no need for a public release)?
