Great! I played through the free version on windows when it was first released several years ago. However, I didn´t want to spend money on the pay-version until the game was completeable.
Guess I´ll have to wait a bit longer for them to finaly finish the "Xen" level...:(

Crazy, I was seriously not expecting this game until sometime waaaay into 2017 (maybe between apr-aug). I guess I´ll have to spend more money than I anticipated this fall, because a game like this I will happily pay the "Day01" full price (whatever it may be) rather than wait for a sale.
Mad Max, Stellaris expansion, Deus Ex:MD, Tyranny...what an autumn, suddenly I feel like I´m back doing Windows gaming again (minus the crappy OS). <3

Speculation: A recent Mesa commit hints at a possible Batman: Arkham Origins Linux port (update: no it isn't)

Arkhams Origins, was imo. a fairly mediocre Arkham game, it followed in the footsteps of "Asylum & City" and did a rather decent job of it. Arkham Knight, on the other hand, had the Batmobile that failed to provide much positive to the series, story developments/ending that I felt was weird and ill fitting and finaly enough bugs & performance issues to fill 3 other games.
I don't know, maybe my feelings were in part becuse I had low expectations for the first non-Rocksteady Batman game, so it was pretty easy to surpass them. On the other hand, I had great expectations for Rocksteadys triumphant return to the franchise...and those failed in a rather spectacular fashion.

Quoting: Mountain ManOrigins was easily the worst of the Arkham games, but I still would have loved to see it on Linux.I actually enjoyed "Origins" more than I did the latest "Knight".

Mad Max released for Linux, port report and review available

Bought it. 24,8 GB a fairly large download, it will take me 3-4 hours since my dl speed isn´t that great.
Great to get something new to play, especially aaa-goodness. This suits me fine right now, since both games that I´m currently playing (Sunless Sea & Halcyon 6) have some bugs that needs to be ironed out before I continue.

Shadow Warrior 2 should still be coming to Linux after all, was a miscommunication

Well, honestly I expected it to be something of that nature, although it´s nice to have it confirmed. Now all we need to wait for is actual confirmation that there *IS* a version for linux that people are actively working on, and all will feel much better. ;-)
Currently "Shadow warrior 2" is reviewed as "Overwhelmingly Positive" on Steam, with 1,124 positive reviews and 40 negative, so it sounds pretty much like a "Must Have"-title.

Wow! That was sooner than I had expected, thankfully I finished PoE's "White March" expansion just last month so I'm raring to go for more Obsidian crpg-ing. Now, basically everything that remains of the gaming year 2016 is saved for me. :D :D :D :D :D

Truly shameful behaviour...in fact it´s so shameful that it really puts everything they say in doubt. Their actual reasons for scrapping mac/linux, whether they planned it before or after they picked middleware etc. etc.
The amount of broken promises in the game development community, really paints a bleak picture of how lacking in integrity people are these days. The standard defenses: "factors beyond their control" or "ignorance when choosing middleware" are starting to sound very false.
I simply can not believe that you go looking for middleware, you investigate exactly what it can and can´t accomplish and you simply *fail* to notice the "For Windows Only" message that has to be glaringly obvious.

In space, everyone can hear a cute little roar.
It will be good to revisit Stellaris after my time with Master of Orion, so far (6 hrs played) that game has failed to entertain me in any way whatsoever.

Shadow Warrior 2 may not come to Linux after all, it's getting a bit confusing

Yet another linux-version mystery. There seems to be an ongoing problem with identifying the proverbial "the buck stops here", when it comes to the be or not to be, of linux ports.
Very frustrating from a gamers perspective, it would be better if everyone involved would just utterly deny any plans of a linux version, as long as they weren´t 90% certain one would be made.

Weeell, to be brutaly honest, this was not one of my most wanted titles. Together with "Homefront: The Revolution", these two titles held the dubious distinction of being my two *least* desired aaa-titles, out of all the current aaa titles that I still technicaly did desire to buy on linux.
So, right now I´m feeling a really weird mixture of happiness and dissapointment. Still, it´s pretty much a 75/25 mixture in favor of happiness, meaning that I´ll make this another "Day1 Purchase". ;-)
