Quoting: scaine

Quoting: chrisqThe game is 80% off on gamersgate right now and for 2 more days.

God loves a bargain... but you do no-one except yourself any favours if you buy this before its release. If the developer ported themselves, they'll not see your purchase as a Linux purchase and be disheartened from future development. If the developers outsourced to a thirdparty, that thirdparty is relying on sales AFTER the port is released to make their money.

I am aware of this.
However 80% is quite a bit to pay extra to prove to them that I run linux.
This is an issue with steams identification, they should be lobbied to change their algorithms.

Not being able to deliver their magnificent support was used as an excuse to not deliver linux binaries on gog earlier. This shows that was just talk, as expected.

Quoting: CimerydSince you all agree that this isn't the place to discuss politics, please stop discussing it. The lines have been drawn in the sand, we know where you stand, no need to argue further.

If you read my replies you will seen there's nothing about politics there.
I responded to personal attacks.

Quoting: drmothI also agree, chrisq's comments are rather hyperbolic and misleading, while the article was quite balanced and well written. And no, I'm not Norwegian but reasonably well informed.

I agree that it is was over the top as to hyperbole, however it was pretty much equal to the uncritical praise of the article.

Your assumption that you know more about Norways internal politics than a native that has been following it and been a part of it for more than 20 years is just amusing to me. You're obviously ignorant of how this works in the real world, the politics of a country has to be followed on a daily/weekly basis and in detail to get a real understanding.
I admire your confidence, no matter how misplaced.

Quoting: BeamboomThere's so many errors, myths, politically motivated misinterpretations and twistings of facts in this summary that I won't even start to correct them, other than to say that this is *not* the place to discuss this. But coming from one of the safest, highest welfare, high standard of living, lowest unemployment rating nations in the entire *world*, you do come across as one seriously disillusioned spoiled brat.

Kind regards, another Norwegian

I responded to most the other comments in private because I agree that this is not a place for political discussion, however since you're the least civil I'll have to respond here.

This kind of non-argument you're making is not only cowardice, but just poision and a waste of space.
If you're NOT going to argue something, then it is better not to make a bunch of accusations and name calling first isn't it?

I won't go into a discussion, but leave you with this: If you live on a mountain of gold it is ludicrous to compare yourself or your accomplisments with people that have a fraction of your wealth, is it not?

Quoting: sevenits a gaming site, not a politics site

Then you should point at to the author of the political content in th article, which is what I responded to. The games overview I have no problem with.
