Quoting: NanobangI put dozens of hours into the first alpha release on itch.io. I loved chopping down trees in this game because the gigantic logs could roll and kill you if you weren't careful. (I often used them to kill game and enemies alike.) I'm really looking forward to their final release, to be sure.

Now, what is that big curved thing in the sky? That was decidedly not a thing I saw in the alpha. Any guesses anyone?

The world tree? A way into or out of valhalla perhaps? Who knows :D

If it's the "arc" as in this video it may be Yggdrasil:

Yeah that's what I meant, just couldn't remember the exact name :)

I'm super pumped for this.

Okay, fair enough. I won't argue that point. I just think it's good Civ VI will be continuing to see updates and I am glad about that but I agree the situation elsewhere is not good and I hope they eventually say something in regards to the Borderlands 2/TPS situation.

Quoting: Liam DaweAgain, speculation, no one knows and it doesn't help anyone to act like we know and say they have abandoned anything. Don't spread the negativity that's just not needed.

Fine. Let the facts speak, then.

Fact is that Civ 6 WAS their last Linux port. Yeah, I get it, just negativity.

I'm not talking about additional ports. I was talking about updates, they can't have abandoned something if they're going to be updating this with each DLC and update coming. That was my overall point.

Aspyr Media, who did the original Linux port of Sid Meier's Civilization VI have been contacted about it. They've been pretty silent recently (Borderlands 2/TPS are missing updates)...

I've been largely disappointed with Aspyr. They did some good work early on bringing games to Linux and then all but abandoned the platform.

If they're getting these DLC up at the same time, as we've been told and quoted in the article, they've clearly not abandoned it.

To be fair, this is very likely because of their agreement with Firaxis covering the DLCs, so they probably HAVE to. Aspyr did NOT port any newer game to Linux since then. They did indeed abandon Linux.

Again, speculation, no one knows and it doesn't help anyone to act like we know and say they have abandoned anything. Don't spread the negativity that's just not needed.

Quoting: GuestStill they don't seem to care much about Linux since BL2/TPS are missing updates.

No one knows what's going on there, it could be a publisher decision and they cannot talk about it. Talking in absolutes when no one knows only spreads rumours and doesn't help anything.

China? I think you're confusing Socialism with Communism there.
