Quoting: GuestWeird, GOG showed a blue dot indicating it was updated, but it was the same 1.0.2 version. Maybe it's still processing.
Today they added the macOS version. That only leaves Linux to be updated and won't be here until next week.

I'm hoping to see some of the FAudio features in Wine next year.

This is a clear sign that Mac and Linux were always an afterthought. This will go into my book of never buy this game, regardless of price.

Direct IP multiplayer, Steam not required
That is basically begging for a GOG release. I still have my physical CD's of Wipeout 1 and 2097.

Quoting: keanHmm, New NV and Wine :) I will have to test if Rust became playable or not :)
Now let's sprinkle over some DXVK seasoning and we got an amazing weekend ahead of us :D

Quoting: no_information_hereNow that VP have refined their skills, it would be great if CDPR might give them Witcher 3. I hope CDPR weren't put off by the (initial) negative reaction after Witcher 2.
Unless VP starts using Vulkan, I think TW3 will end up running better with DXVK.

I remember this game way back when Ubuntu was becoming a bit popular on the desktop, great times. I'm surprised (but happy) it's still being worked on all these years.

Windows Unity games can be converted in a similar way if matched with Linux exe that is same or close enough version, it may not work for all games though.

Valve has expanded the Steam Play whitelist to include DARK SOULS III and plenty more

I find it quite funny how Final Doom is included, I don't think many people still play it using the original engine.

Quoting: GustyGhostI have no problem with building form source except for programs that pollute the rest of my system. Does Supertux Kart stay neatly in it's source folder?
Before you compile you can set the prefix (aka the 'make install' location) to any folder you want, for example I always 'make install' to a folder in my home directory, usually it's /home/user/output. You can do the whole process without using sudo once, I then zip it up and copy it to my other machines :)
