Is preventing legitimate customers that use Linux from playing the games worth saving a couple of minutes of support time and the computers of a handful of pirates?
Legitimate? Just pointing out that those 'legitimate' ones want to play games that are not in any way supported for Linux...
I mean, not supporting Linux is a stupid move and they should do everything they can to make it work on Linux. And if GOG prevents people from playing it in Wine, then they prevent Linux users from playing the game.

Quoting: KristianThere don' appear to be any license terms on the Github page. Does anyone know what license it is released under?
Because of no license I'm guessing the "I dont give a living shit what happens with this code" license. BUT, you should stay away from projects with no license anyway.

Quoting: sigz404 on changelog's link ?
I wish I was allowed to edit my own articles, I'm aware of it. I forgot to add "http://" at the start, so it presumes its a local link.

Quoting: dubigrasuMouse issues, vsync issues, gamepad issues, graphic issues...you name it.
Sure, bugs are understandably frustrating - I just don't get it when there's still bashing in cases where there are zero issues.

Fortunately, problems like the one you mentioned above are getting fixed as they get reported - the mouse look problems have been resolved, vsync (which was initially disabled on some WMs to work around a bug in Compiz/Unity DE) has been reënabled on all WMs, etc.
Additionally, Unity 5 takes a more SDL-like approach to gamepad support (see Fight the Dragon), meaning that things should be more likely to Just Work, and it should be easier for users to override them if they don't.
Still doesn't weigh up the fact that its closed souce ;) (the engine) This itself is a huge negative for me.

Quoting: TakOk, in what way is the Linux support bad? You mentioned that you didn't experience any problems...
Not with this game. Unity has a lot of black-screen issues, but I rarely play Unity games. Just Duck and you'll find a few issues.

Quoting: TakSo ... why is it a shame?
Unity has very bad Linux support compared to other engines and is closed-source. They also dont have a Linux editor :/
