Given time and funding we know we can ensure a good quality port for both Steam OS & OSX based players.

I like the sound of that...!

Quoting: kellerkindtMad Max gave me a lot of unexpected good playing hours, so I can really recommend it.

Shadow of Mordor was a bit of a disappointment, I really hope Max is a bit more fun.

Mad Max was more Ubisoft Formula and thus less fun for me. Played Shadow of Mordor to the end (mostly ignoring tedious icon removal work in the later half), but not Mad Max.

Quoting: edddeduckferalThe games are released on Ubuntu, results on Ubuntu are accurate and are very similar to SteamOS but much easier to use and test. Using an unsupported distro and WM can sometimes cause issues you don't see on supported systems.

I'm expecting that, if no bugs occur, performance on different WMs shouldn't differ much. Do you have experience on this?

Quoting: Purple Library GuyEnglish is particularly weird because it comes from two main languages and a couple of secondary ones, with different grammars, all mooshed together (Old English, French, a bit of Old Norse, some Latin, miscellaneous stuff). We ended up with tons of extra words and smashed grammar.

We should start adding random German words too!

2016 gave me Weltschmerz!

Kindergarten? Angst? (I'll leave out the ones from the 30ies and 40ies...)

(I though English woul already be closely related to German? The Saxon part in Anglo-Saxon...?

Ah, by the way: I heard "Fahrvergnügen" is widely known in the US due to a big advertising campaign in the past?

I'm not a native speaker either, but to my understaning, their wording was not wrong (just missinterpretable)?

Quoting: liamdaweAnd how many are likely to finish it in one sitting? I won't recommend a game that currently breaks if you load a saved game, no one should.

*gna* I misinterpreted it. I thought the save game has to be from the pre-patch version.
(While I would recomment playing it in a single session, of course you must not be forced to do so.)

Quoting: LordpkappaIt's a shame, it's in my wish list, more testing for the Linux platform if you want to support it, it's not the first time.

Quoting: lejimsterI picked the game up recently on sale. I probably won't be playing it for a few weeks tho. I hope they have it fixed by then.

Quoting: GuestI would have bought the game during the last sale if that bug hadn’t been present. Hopefully for the christmas sale they’ll have fixed it…

According to what I read here, no-one of you will meet the problem:

Quoting: LukeNukemFor anyone who hasn't read the thread;

it apparently works fine! You just can't use the mouse if you continue from a saved game.

Quoting: Ray54It looks like a very interesting game. Although the predecessor Whispering World did not have a Linux release, the game was available in an adventure pack with mostly Linux compatible adventures sold by Humble Bundle a couple of years ago, so many of us may well have a Windows copy available. I have played it (not to the end) under Wine, and it ran well. I certainly liked Whispering World, so will buy this game from this very professional developer.

The end of Whispered World should be seen! (AFAIR best before playing Silence.)
