Why is the Autumn Sale so near to the Winter Sale (only 1 month apart)?
In my opinion the Autumn Sale would be better situated in September - maybe it could swap places with the SHMUP Fest?
Just my two cents.

Could it be that with “larger audience of PC players” they just mean that more gamers are playing on Windows?
As in “of the two audiences of PC players (Linux + Windows) the one that uses Windows is larger”?

I may point you to the fact that English is not my native language, so I could be mistaken.

Quoting: Yves Guillemot[…]the industry continues to shift towards […] everlasting live games

No, it does not.

In case Yves Guillemot is reading this, I base my opinion on EA’s [External Link] 180 [External Link] on [External Link] live services [External Link].
I would say EA is Ubisoft’s main competitor.

Quoting: Yves Guillemot[…]in the context of worsening economic conditions affecting consumer spending

While energy prices and inflation certainly aren’t helping, I think the anti-consumerism that tends to drive Ubisoft’s decisions is the main factor of fading customers/declining sales.

I’m always interested in the paradox games, but as soon as I see the prices for the ‘complete’ game my interest just vanishes into thin air.

Now that they increase the prices…

Quoting: CatKillerI wonder if (although I'm pretty sure the answer is no) the game will go through the Deck verification process again so that it's the Linux version that gets deployed on the Steam Deck. Still, the developers can ask for that to happen.

I thought you could always force the native version by choosing “Linux Runtime” in the compatibility tools?

Quoting: GuestIs there a way to upgrade all games to use a certain version at once? Like if they were all on 7-15, upgrade all those to 7-20.

When you select a certain version in the main window (the one where all compatibility tools are listed), you can click on “Show info” and then a list of games should be presented where you can click something like “batch upgrade” (will check when I get home today). Hope this is helpful 🙂
