Quoting: Sakuretsu"We tried to scam our costumers but got a lotta backlash in return because they're not as dumb as we'd like them to be."

Dunno why they're backtracking so heavily here. They could've made a helluva marketing campaign over this little issue.

Quoting: SamsaiDepends on the village. Some villages wish they had 4 washer/drier combos worth of electronics.

For the sake of conversation, we'll assume we're all talking about those well to do, up on the latest trends villages here. One of those places where everyone has a satellite dish up on their roof.

Quoting: SamsaiYeah, we are at the point where it would be better to have cooler and smaller stuff, yet as nanometers go smaller, the gaming systems slowly turn into watercooled mainframes that eat as much electricity as small villages :grin:

Hey, comeon now. There's no reason to over-exaggerate here. It doesn't require as much electricity as a small village. It uses, maybe, enough energy to power 4 washer/dryer combos, max.

That's barely even half of a small village.

For the first time ever, I finally saw the Steam survey pop up while in Ubuntu.

I've managed to work my way to the boss on the northern end of the map, and so far, the game has run flawlessly for me.

I did have some issues with my Steam controller, but it was the usual "I need to run sudo chmod 666 /dev/uinput" again moreso than any problem with the game itself.

Okay, that looks absolutely incredible. I'm gonna grab it day one, no questions asked.

I'm on this like wheat on bread, yo!

Quoting: liamdaweThe issues arise with people buying before a Linux version is out...

Oh, great. Now I feel bad. Thanks. :><:

edit: first very quick impressions.

I bought the game back when it was in late beta, shortly before I started spending most of my time in Linux. Because of that, I've only got a couple hours playtime in with it. Enough to know the basics of the game, and to know how well it ran in Windows back when.

Other than it seeming to take a few seconds too long launching (not a big deal, but long enough for me to take note of it), it runs flawlessly. I've gone through the intro section, goofed around in the hamlet, put together a team, and started a trip into the ruins. I've noticed no bugs, crashes, hitches, hiccups or anything else worth mentioning.

It's not the most hardware intensive game ever, but a good port is a good port, and this one seems to be a good port.

I've spent the last week punching myself in the face, preparing for this game.

...I think I'm ready.

To be fair to the Stardew Valley devs, they started the game 3-4 years ago, when Linux gaming was nothing more than emulators with the occasional good open source project swinging by, and XNA was still getting support from MS.

Things have obviously changed quite a bit since then. So don't hold the fact they didn't have Linux in mind when they first started developing the game. What's important is that they're acknowledging it now.

Well hell. I'll check that out. Thanks! :D
