I feel bad for whoever wrote that article as it really just screams inexperience and lacking basic intel about graphics APIs and Linux.

A community project that doesn't support a community OS is absurd -- assuming it doesn't become vaporware in the near future.

When they grow up they will become enlightened and change their minds as both the graphics API and Engine are Linux First Class.

Until then I'm sure someone will get Installation 01 running native or Halo Online running in wine which is basically just Halo 3 for PC.

So what is this -- Gary's Mod meets Call of Duty?

It's bonkers enough to be interesting and look like it could be fun

QuoteI won't add my usual complaint about not having multiplayer

.... Oh. Well never-mind then, Multiplayer is a critical feature missing for this kind of genre game IMO. Maybe their eyes will open.

Mars is the perfect context to have a City Building game.

We might actually learn something from the way players layout and build cities inasmuch as we concepted the iPad, Bluetooth, Cellphones, Video Conferencing, etc... from Star Trek.

Valve is privately owned and as such is immune to 3rd parties investing in the corporation via stock to manipulate and increase their own profits.

The Valve Ethos and the Microsoft Ethos are fundamentally incompatible.

Anyone who has ever had wealth knows there are MANY MANY MANY things money can't buy. You can't build a house in 1 day by spending extra money. You can't solve world hunger with money. You can't fix the driver and tool-chain game development problems on Linux with money (without also investing the required proportion of time including money to develop said tool-chain.)

All that I learn from these rumors is that Microsoft publicly admits to having a interest in what Steam is doing, which likely confirms my suspicions of Microsoft Shills paroling Steam Community spreading their foolish Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt.

If Steam ever sold I would snapshot every game and pull the fuck out of Steam forever. But since I can't live my life with total pessimism, waiting for people to victimize me constantly, and mount motion sensor machine gun turrets outside my house, I think I will just stay chill and continue to put faith in Gabe Newell loathing Microsoft and him having absolutely no incentive to sell as he already posses all the wealth he could ever want.

Their work methodology seems damned good. I think they will translate their efforts into a epic game. Of course I will keep my optimism in check and hope for the best, I am very stoked they are on Unreal Engine and at their progress and clarity.

Quoting: TheRiddickOMG naked female bodies [...] THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

If the nudies give you the horn, please ignore TheRiddick's advice and think of something more appropriate.

Certainly not.

I'm just poking at the idea that while the GOL audience might prefer nude female models they might have a drastically different opinion if the post contained nude male characters.

In many cultures it's common to find outright prejudice against nudity while completely accepting deplorable acts of graphic violence. I have no problem with nudity whatsoever, in fact I think the common one-world culture is finally starting to prevail away from our dark age roots.

I think to hit that equal thing we need a second picture including naked men. Harlious.

FFXV.

I have 160 hours in on the Xbox version and the mods on SteamOS would be nuts. FFXV on PC is gonna be a big deal.
