Quoting: whizse
Quoting: Purple Library GuySigh. There was a time when I knew all the dinosaur names. There are so many more nowadays . . .
What is your favorite one? I was always on team Triceratops!

Ha, what about the Tricera-Cop?

Quoting: EikeCool! Looking forward!

ACK.
But without a clear word pro Linux support no backing....

Quoting: Craggles086No one thinks we might be ready for a version 1 yet, after how many years of DOSBox?

Hey, 0.8 is the new 2.0

There are stores where 100% of all games are DRM-free. I prefer to support (only) those.

Quoting: natis1Are you boycotting Valve? If so I'm curious why...
I just don't rent/lease games there, I want to buy (and own without restrictions).

QuoteIt will be available on Steam.

If that is the final word it would be a clear step back (and make it the Zachtronics game I don't buy....).

QuoteOur goal is to release the game on Steam ...


One can get a physical disk that will be stand-alone, but only in the $85 tier. That's for sure too much for me.
At least it rises hope that it might show up elsewhere later. So I'll wait for that.

Scratching my head about all this 'scaling' discussions. I must be doing something wrong. I use (since 6 years) a 14" 2560x1440 Lenovo laptop. No scaling, I just changed the default font sizes. And I absolutely do not have 'eagle eyes'....

Quoting: ripper81358Most if not all Notebooks made by Tuxedo are coming with a 1080p@60Hz panel. I personally think it is the best solution for a 14" or 15" display anyway.
Hmm, though this is a gaming site: I wouldn't buy a laptop for gaming only.
The Tuxedo InfinityBook 14 has 2880x1800 (and to me was the by far most exciting laptop in the last years).

QuoteIf you wan't to use this device for some "light" gaming, 1080p will also be the maximum resolution the integrated GPU can handle at a decent performance in most cases.

Depends on what you call 'light'. I'd call 'light' what I do, and for that my 6-year old T460p (2560x1440, Optimus) is fine, for a lot of what I play even when using the (Skylake) Intel graphics.

I'm not demanding higher resolution as default. But I'd like to have the option, else the offer very quickly drops off my list....

Hmmm, with only FHD screens it doesn't really cause much attention here....

I do like the support for the KDE project though.
