This is cool and all but the lack of a notification that it started keeps me away from this.

Not sure if I'll like it or not. Saw there was a demo so I'm going to try it out tonight.

The demo is the windows version but does work if you remove all of the videos from:

Desperados III Demo/Desperados III_Data/StreamingAssets/bootup/

Quoting: gojulLooks that Feral has forgotten us, sadly. :-(

I wonder if someone else will come along and fill their void?

I'm skeptical about it being soon after release.

They still haven't released the last two patches from over two months ago (presumably because they were busy porting Total War: Troy over to the Mac).

With the DLC only two weeks away, I just don't see it happening.

Also, I'm a bit annoyed with the slow updates because there have been so many game breaking bugs and we Linux users have been stuck with them for months on end.

I know part of this is Creative Assembly's fault but when you spend $60 for a game plus that much on DLCs it would be nice if it worked right...

The trailer didn't sell me on this but I do like the environment so I think I'll pick this up anyways.

Quoting: LinasThere is a huge resistance to Linux adoption in workspace IT support departments. Most places I have seen it's either completely forbidden to run Linux on your work machine or "don't ask, don't tell" kind of situation where you get zero support if something goes wrong. Software is bought and deployed without any consideration for Linux compatibility making it a minefield to navigate through as a Linux user. My direct boss literally pretends not to know that I run Linux, saying that I run "a more exotic kind of setup" if asked by the IT guys. :grin:

I remember at my last job I had to ask them to flip on Linux support for the Cisco VPN. They didn't want to right away but I talked them into it.

They refuse to support Linux at my current job.

Quoting: ShmerlWell, picking Nvidia for graphics is a major no go for a Linux laptop. Pretty bad move on their part.

Let them make a proper AMD laptop.

Their hardware and drivers are not that great in my experience. The last AMD graphics card I bought was used for a month and then replaced with nVidia again. Maybe in a few years I'll look at them again but for now I'm sticking with nVidia under Linux.

Quoting: CatKiller

Quoting: KohlyKohlI get the survey on Linux all the time. I'd say once every 3-4 months.

Do you reinstall or distro hop a lot? My understanding is that Steam is only supposed to ask at most once a year.

I switch every couple of years.

I gave up on snaps. They look awful on a 4k monitor, are slow to start up, and take up way too much space.

Quoting: Sojiro84Well, this week I finally got a steam survey. The last time I got one, I was still on Windows. So now finally, since November 2018, I am also counted as a Linux user.

Valve really should just sent out a survey for once to all active users. That way we get a proper look.

I recently logged into Steam on two PCs. Both Linux, and I got the survey on both of them. Either on same day or a day apart, I don't remember.

I get the survey on Linux all the time. I'd say once every 3-4 months. It would probably be more but I don't always open it on the first of the month.
