Quoting: no_information_here

Quoting: Liam DaweI agree I think we're long passed the point where the timing on Wine based questions make sense so they will be removed.

Edit: Wine/Steam Play questioning was removed. In future, we may look to introduce other questions about them but the previous questions didn't fit with the way this survey works and frankly they weren't even useful. Thanks for the feedback. This does streamline it a bit too for now :)

I think it is a mistake to completely remove Wine/Proton from the questions. It seems like too big a part of Linux gaming to ignore it.

The questions were bad, and cannot simply just be changed because of all the previous data. The questions themselves weren't good or useful in any way in their previous form, so they made no sense to keep around. That doesn't mean I am ignoring it, not at all, I just haven't had time to hook in any new questions on top of all the other work that has to go into GOL and actually have some free time ;)

Thanks for the feedback, have given them dedicated colours that will stay the same now and they're clear on both website themes.

Quoting: GuestI have a Suggestion: How about a Section for the Init you use? Like systemd,openrc, runinit, s6...

How does that pertain to gaming? Unless there's a direct benefit to using one init over another in terms of e.g. gaming performance, I don't see why it'd be a useful metric to track here.

Yeah, honestly that sounds like a fluff detail we don't really need.

Quoting: crabelOn Linux there is still one issue with videos, they won't play since they are not in the right format, but the developer said it will be fixed soon. While the videos are actually quite nice, it isn't such a big deal. I had no issues playing the game itself.

That was already solved. Works fine for me.

Quoting: ghostdogI would love to try the original Zelda in VR :smile:

Then you should take a look at their VR version, this is normal PC version.

Quoting: scaineI just picked up The Hex (from the creator of Pony Island) and Depth of Extinction, which Liam has covered a few times and I kept meaning to pick up, but never got around to. Great deals.

Hmmm, except I'm confused. When I go the "Black Lives Matter" download page, it looks like they were part of the deal? Or is that just a generic "download" page which shows items I've bought? Because if they were part of the deal, they shouldn't allow me to buy them again, right?

Edit - Jeez, never mind. Just went to buy Rusty Trails and sure enough, it won't let me because it was part of the bundle. So the link page is just a generic "download stuff you already bought" page after all.

If you've actually hit Download on your Racial Justice bundle download page for that game and added it to your library, you'll see a "You own this game" disclaimer at the top of the store page in a browser. In the Itch.io app this info will be in the bottom bar along with an Install button. I don't doubt both games deserved your cash, but you did own them already.

Yep. I don't mind throwing another $10 at those guys, but I've got to get this off my chest - the Itch store is utter dogshit. The client too, if I'm being honest. I bought those games, I go to my client, they don't show up. So I search for them, I get the store page, with no notification I've bought it, and a prompt to buy it (again, as it turns out). In order to align the stars and planets, I have to find my original "download" link, search for the game there and press the "download" button, which I can then cancel, close my itch client and start it back up, and lo! the game has appeared.

Complete bollocks.

It's because the itch anti-racism bundle was unprecedented and they manually stopped it adding everything to your library to not overwhelm people. Not saying I agree or disagree with how it's handled, just that in this one specific case you need to manually add them because of how large it is. Otherwise, it's exactly how you would expect it to be for purchases.

Quoting: PatolaMidBoss (which I got from the charity bundle) is not running here (Ubuntu 20.04), though. Exit Code 0x86 (134) for (MidBoss), according to the console message. Sent them a report but so far no answer or feedback. Anyone having this?

Just tested the itch build, no issue here.

Quoting: Patolawhere's the link for the drivers?

Check out the very first link in the article. The one that says "Vulkan Beta Driver" :whistle:

The link was added to the article afterwards, at the time I had read it, it wasn't there. I even removed that part of my post.

Yes, apologies, I noticed after hitting publish and coming back to it that I forgot the link so I added it in twice. In future, if we do forget something, be sure to use correction report feature as that sends info to us directly that we may miss in comments. Cheers.

Article corrected. Kingdom of Loathing was supposed to be West of Loathing.
