How did this article get a pass to be featured on GamingOnLinux.com

The author clearly is some college English student who is whiny, angry, and doing his best to tear down Gaming On Linux & Valve.

He is a judger who has already written Steam Machines and SteamOS as FAILURES.

He doesn't understand how PURPOSE, AUTONOMY, and MASTERY are powerful things that Valve Infrastructure weild's to create amazing games and products.

There are numerous spelling mistakes and missing words it's like this article hasn't even gone through a spell checker, but what's worse is the author is missing a few screws too.

Also if you could keep your fucking 6 page essays to to fucking 1,200 words max this article wouldn't come off as such a assault to the eyes.

There are even no fucking images on this post. WHAT THE FUCK?

Genius Simplifies and Ignorance Complicates. This article didn't need to be fucking 3,600 words or 6 fucking pages long in my word processor - I HOPE I NEVER SEE THIS KIND OF TRASH ON GAMINGONLINUX.COM AGAIN.

Maybe when it comes out, I dunno about loosely formed games anymore. I'll bookmark when it comes on steam.

They're really doing everything they can to be Infamous huh?

I guess good and bad attention are both attention huh?

There was a part of me that wanted to try the new one but could never justify it after trying the first and having the mechanics not be the RTS I hoped it was.

I do about 280 FPS on average in Black Mesa.

AMD RX 480
i7-6700k
MESA-Git + Gallium
Arch Linux

I played all the way to chapter 2 with next to 0 glitches. Here's the video of me playing chapter 1 showing off Black Mesa on MESA-Git Performance @ 1080p.

I've opened a YouTube Channel for RX 480 on MESA Performance Previews including OpenGL vs Vulkan, etc...

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTI think we do not have any problem with having a lot of games: No one never ever can play so many games. Still we have a lack of high quality games in comparison to Windows. I don't necessarily mean AAA titles - but in general.

Perhaps, still I think some of the following titles could classify as "quality"

✓ Bastion
✓ Undertale
✓ Ark
✓ Dota 2
✓ Civilization V
✓ Terraria
✓ Starbound
✓ AudioSurf 2
✓ Cities: Skylins
✓ Half Life 2
✓ Portal
✓ Portal 2
✓ Team Fortress 2
✓ Distance
✓ DiRT Showdown
✓ BioShock Infinite
✓ LISA
✓ Left for Dead 2
✓ Metro 2033 Redux
✓ Metro Last Light Redux
✓ Natural Selection 2
✓ Road Redemption
✓ Pac-Man 256
✓ Serious Sam 3: BFE
✓ Talos Principle
✓ System Shock 2
✓ World of Goo
✓ Saints Row
✓ Mad Max
✓ Super Meat Boy
✓ Binding Of Isaac
✓ GMod
✓ Grid
✓ Borderlands
✓ Life is Strange
✓ Lethal League
✓ Half Life 2: Update
✓ Counter Strike Source
✓ Counter Strike Global Offensive
✓ Rocket League
✓ Tomb Raider
✓ GRID Autosport
✓ Geometry Wars
✓ Bro Force
✓ Transistor
✓ Left 4 Dead
✓ Stardew Valley
✓ Battle Block Theater
✓ Super Meat Boy
✓ ...etc

In the end, Linux hasn't yet gained everything but there are many good games to play.

I'm glad you're following this lead and keeping everyone posted.

When they pull it off I'm sure everyone will grab their wallets and pull the trigger to give it a shot.

As a Linux User I recall having absolutely no interest in this kind of game.

To be fair - the developer feels disappointed about their expectation of sales for Linux & Mac platforms.

This thing sells for $20? :\ StaeamSpy says that there were 111,707 ± 8,641 sales.

Is it true those versions came out 1 year after the Windows version?

So the combined 5% is equal to $55,853.50 of extra income in 1 year or $4,654 a month.

If I was a game developer I wouldn't minimize 55 thousand dollars just because my game netted $2,233,022.93 (2.3 mil)

Lets not forget that porting to Mac & Linux is the first step in deploying to XBONE, PS4, iPad/iPhone, Android, etc... when the game has those targets in mind from the start.

Let's not also forget that 1% of the United States controls the vast majority of the wealth in the country.

Linux is similar - our 2% is comprised up of very intellectual people, people who make youtube (Bryan Lunduke) videos, programmers, bloggers (such as Liam), IT's, System Admins, and people who are highly regarded in recommending hardware and software to their piers and families.

I single-handedly am responsible for at least 30-50 people switching to Nvidia instead of AMD/ATI in the last decade. As a Professional IT I would make recommendations on hardware nearly on a weekly basis.

Linux and Mac users are a cult following and highly evangelical as activists supporting or opposing specific games, apps, etc...

An important lesson that judging with your eyes or purely by a mathematical number is deceptive.

Here's a video showing off non-eclidean level design, have an open mind.

Quoting: starsaboveusI've been using the Steam client to find Linux games on the main store page, and I've only seen Linux only games so far. The only issue I've found is when I use the Discovery Queue; I did come across only one game that didn't have Linux support.

You really ARE an idiot. Your Level Of ViolencE is lacking and you need more EXecution Points.

Knowing that the user might one day find the setting... it fills you with DETERMINATION.
