Yes it is.

Quoting: LeopardBtw , 396.18 driver need is a bit odd.
The most recently released drivers, Vulkan needs them to run properly I guess.
Just read my post again.
Please accept my apologies, I completely missed the point. It's not like it's blindingly obvious is it? ;)

Quoting: PatolaI know I am a little late to comment on this game, but it is on sale on GOG and I just stumbled upon a very deep article about is development and how the developers nearly went bankrupt: Postmortem: Mimimi's Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun [External Link]. It also explains why there are no DLCs for the game.
Very good read, I highly recommend to anyone involved in the gaming industry.
I highly recommend anyone who hasn't bought the game to get on it right away, it's definitely worth every penny even at full price.

It refuses to compile for me, followed the instructions to the letter, scratching my head right now, any help would be appreciated.
Update Meson.
You are using 0.29, but the join_paths function was added in version 0.36.
Ah, excellent, now to find the newer version. :D
Thanks Corralx & Nevertheless. :D

/home/"user"? Is that correct?
I guess I should have said I edited the output to remove my name.

The Witcher 3 didn't come to Linux likely as a result of the user-backlash from The Witcher 2
5 Apr 2018 at 7:36 am UTC

WE are potential customers, WE are willing to give them money for their work, even now. 15,000 signatures is 15,000 guaranteed customers, how many more people are out there who didn't sign the petition?

I don't care who said what or who did what to who, I want that game on Linux, I bought Witcher 1 & 2, but Witcher 3 is never going to be bought by me UNLESS it comes to Linux first.

Valve need to put pressure on developers like Adobe to get them supporting Linux.
