Quoting: [email protected]Finally picked up Dying Light Enhanced Edition in the Chrono.gg daily sale - so far, I'm liking most of what I see, although my parkour skills need a lot of work (took me four tries to set the trap on the signal pole in the rail yard in the prologue - I kept imagining hearing the infected laughing at me...).

The only mail I got from Chrono.gg is about War for the overworld, I've searched around the site and never saw Dying Light mentioned anywhere. Are you sure you got it there?

Quoting: g000hWaiting with bated breath for the next Humble Monthly early-bird reveal (7-ish hours away). [Only to be disappointed by another Windows-only title ~ well, hopefully not]

Same, but on the upside, the second reveal usually had very good linux games like RUINER and Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth.

The sheer size of the map alone makes me weary, sounds like a whole lot of nothing to me and possibly lots of long distance busy work through said nothingness.

Quoting: nitroflowStill, it doesn't warrant some of the extreme comments here, such as an appeal to piracy that only benefits pirates.

Absolutely. My comments was replying directly to the "some kind of PR" comment.

D'oh! I've quoted the wrong comment. Sorry!

Quoting: nitroflowPretty disappointing comments here. Measuring interest is a perfectly valid thing to do especially when they've ported their previous games.

This seems to be most retarded approach to measure interest. I know others have done that before and accumulated hundreds of "+1" posts in Steam discussions. I wonder how many of these "+1" translate into purchases months or years after this discussion. There must be a more sane solution at hand, too - since there are so many Linux ports out there which came into being without that. Let me guess:

We have to invest so many man hours into the port. We have to sell so and so many copies to break even. Looking at our past stats we can expect so and so many sales. If we sell less, it won't cost us a fortune, we can file it under experience gained.

Still, it doesn't warrant some of the extreme comments here, such as an appeal to piracy that only benefits pirates.

EDIT: Quoted wrong comment.

Quoting: velemasJust use Asus ROG Strix GL702ZC with Ryzen 1700 (8 cores, 16 threads, no Meltdown, no Nvidia blob) for $1499. Runs Arch Linux perfectly.

And how is suspend to ram on that? Last time I looked it's a dice roll when it works under AMD, if at all.

Quoting: ageresSteam is downloading a 5.7 GB update now

It also did for me, then it started an infinite install loop. Uninstalled the game and re-downloaded everything(13,5GB) and the same behavior persisted despite having 30GB free and the space taken is just 18GB according to steam. Cleared an extra 4GB and re-downloading the whole for the second time while keeping my fingers crossed it works this time(taking into account that 18GB of installed game + 13.5GB of download exceeded the total 30GB of free space I had before and was somehow screwing up the install even though the download validated successfully and monitoring available space while installing never went below 10GB...)

It worked now

Quoting: NanobangI was all set to buy this yesterday, but my brakes locked up when I saw the word "Beta." As stoked as I am to play this game (at last) I can't get past paying full price for less than the full release. Ah, well, I've waited this long. I'll wait a bit longer for the final release, or for the next time it goes on sale, whichever comes first. Either way, [in deep, sinister, echo-y voice] It. Will. Be. MINE!
