This is why I've been done with Kickstarter campaigns for a very long time.

Sadly alot of devs either cancel their Linux ports or put out shoddy ones that are missing features or never updated.

There's been many examples of that with Kickstarter or without.

Thanks for the article!

The original steam Linux runtime is very old but they have a new one called soldier and sniper that is on much more modern base. It's an opt in thing where you ask valve to use it, there's been a few games that did so and valve uses it for dota 2 and cs2 I velieve

I personally won't since it'll have 100+ DLCs

Very nice! I'll look into the possibility of integrating it with luxtorpeda - https://github.com/luxtorpeda-dev/packages/issues/1188 [External Link]

I haven't really had this issue mainly because I don't buy games that require an online connection or a non-steam account. Most of the games I buy have no drm, so I could always still use them if something happened to steam.

Quoting: Liam Dawe

Quoting: d10sfanI heard reports from people saying that running the game offline (as in no internet connection) will cause the game to not boot, but once the game starts you could play offline. Has that changed?

That has not been the case in my testing. Plays fine. Gives 2 or so errors in-game which you skip, as the errors are about multiplayer. Solo offline works fine.

Ah gotcha, thanks! I'll probably give it a go soon then

Quoting: d10sfanI hope that they eventually support fully offline play, as you currently have to launch the game connected to the internet.

You don't. Valve's notice on the Steam Deck certification is wrong. It plays just fine offline solo.

Not being able to boot the game offline makes the game much less appealing, especially on a steam deck.
