I think it was more a case of he didn't really understand Linux too well and it went a bit beyond his current ability to fix.

Quoting: razing32Did a bit more reading.#2 goes to "Norwood Garage" rather than "West Norwood".
That's bus route 2 for West Norwood.

Possibly the number 68 bus if that is any help.

The Linux depot is still there and it's still linked with the steam store.
So anyone can still buy the game and can still run (or try to run) the game on Linux. It simply doesn't show up as being available to purchase for Linux even tho it will still install Linux once bought.

Quoting: Andrei B.I think that developers should be able to mention (on Steam) what distribution they're supporting. People can't seriously expect developers to support dozens of distributions.I looked on steamdb to check.
On the other hand, I find disturbing what this developer has done. Simply removing support for a platform is really not cool and borderline illegal. What if I only had access to Linux? Plus, removing support is usually done gradually, with a lot of time in advance. Like a year, for example, so that users can find alternative solutions.

Did they -ever- fix the mic issue. Never really played it as I couldn't talk to anyone with a mic or hear anyone with a mic.
Parsec is another game streaming service, now with Linux support and it's blown me away

You don't rent a computer with Windows to watch a film on Windows Media Player.
However with game streaming.. that's pretty much the only way to do it.
I don't mind the concept of such services. The thing that irks me is that it doesn't help with software freedom. If these services really took off. Then companies would simply only make games for Windows and just tell everyone else to stream it.

Quoting: liamdaweIt's not really a 1:1 comparison.Quoting: bubexelResume: you rent a computer with windows to play with latency....I bet people said similair stuff about music/tv/movie streaming, now they're massively popular.
So stupid...

Quoting: ProfessorKaos64Fortunately,I can make a good bet someone on Tabletop Simulator's workshop has a mod for this already or will have one.Mods for it exist but they will never exist on the workshop long as the game gets taken down by DoW for copyright infringement all the time. You have to ask around for people to send you the save.

It's very simple. The Linux depot is missing (removed) from SubID: 14791, which seems to be the package you get/have if you bought directly from Steam. All the other packages still have the Linux depot meaning it's still installable/downloadable if you got it via humble sale, etc.
It actually got removed 3 months ago: https://steamdb.info/sub/14791/history/ [External Link]
Other subs here: https://steamdb.info/app/108200/subs/ [External Link]
It probably got removed in error. The dev probably just wanted to remove the support icon but in doing so removed the game from Linux user's game list (the ones who bought it directly form steam). However I assume it still shows up in the All Games list. So they havn't removed the rights to have the game, just the ability to download it/play it.
