Fantastic News, I hope they have more plans to asess market interest and offer sales and shipping to more countries aswell, or at the very least target different regions over the world.

I have heard stories about Canadians driving 6+ hours and crossing the border to get their Valve Index due to the limited sales locations.

This is exciting, getting the game into as many hands as possible is always great news for open source games.

Some of us were there, it was glorious.

This art style and game type is getting me like dangling a shiny in front of a kitty. This is going high up on my radar.

Let me know when the Linux version drops I'm totally buying it. I hope it plays as good as it looks because then I might find something SC-BWish but new and refreshed without any of the Activision taint.

I love how they applied the formula instead of trying to adapt of change the formula. This style of graphics is a style and it looks executed amazingly and with major appeal.

Why do I get the feeling Nvidia is trying to step up their Linux game after AMD ate their dinner and got the Google Stadia contract.

Poor bastards are fighting the inevitable pentecostal shouting for a open source driver.

I smell bullshit. Just bump the game to 2019.3 only for the Linux branch compile and release.

Fixing issues as you go is okay, not realeasing for their linux backers is NOT. Linux gamers are not as finicky as win and mac they greatly underestimate us. They owe their backers and need to do their best and then release whatever they have.

Ever played a game of Dota 2 by yourself and get matched against an entire team of people? I have, it sucks.

Good luck playing a match around The International timeframe, you will get 5 man rolled regularly, the enemy team will all my linked up via Discord communicating or in person and you and your teamies have to pray you have at least 1 player good enough to snowball your team to victory.

For being such a common issue, it's nice to see Valve doing their best to make incremental issues on these kinds of things instead of just shrugging.

Actually thought about buying this for years.

Then I got into mechanical keyboards and suddenly want to revamp the entire QWERTY layout for myself since there are so many legacy elements that haven't been fleshed out in modernization but just legacy carry-over, like numpad on the right vs left, etc...

I guess this project will make me think about buying again. I would love to use this in a Tiling Window Manager and make window controls like "Close, Resize, Maximize, Move Window on Mouse Drag, etc..."
