Quoting: EikeBoth free? How is he making his money?

As I understand, it's just something they do in their free time.

Quoting: brokkrI forced myself to go back and read about each one of these and rejoice... but I won't lie: My first reaction was to do a quick scroll and be sad that Into The Breach is still nowhere to be seen :( Liam, can't you nudge Subset into telling us if they still mean to follow through on their promises?

Oh I've tried, they don't seem to reply to me. I'm not reading into it much, they said all along Linux would be later since they felt overworked when they did releases together before. I would be very surprised if they didn't go through with it.

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: ArehandoroInteresting, Shadow of the Tom Raider and Life is Strange 2 already appear as available for Linux.

Maybe that signals that Feral is already the beneficiary of the purchase. Just as a pre-order. Could also be a mistake of course.

I would suggest you both read the article, it's mentioned ;)

Quoting: devnullInteresting numbers but few things to keep in mind:

- People don't normally update or change vendors so often. GPU Vendor growth/movement doesn't really mean much outside at least per quater.

- Since it's not possible to known how many are NEW submitters, the number of reports is I suspect tied to closer to releases then randoms submitting. If a major bug blocking multiple titles suddenly gets fixed, there will be a surge.

- It's a good and bad thing but at the end of the day people may not be submitting reports after seeing titles already listed.

What I think I will do, going forward is look at the CPU/GPU combination to at least work out how many of the reports are done across unique systems. Would that at least help somewhat?

Quoting: Perkeleen_VittupääWhy not to delay the EA launch until all planned platform ports are go?

We have to be realistic I think. Delaying your entire release, for the smallest platforms doesn't make a whole lot of sense overall.

Quoting: no_information_herePlease order your first "Reports over Time" graph by date rather than by count. The way it is sorted right now renders it really hard to read.

Thanks for doing the analysis. I am impressed by the high level of activity.

It is ordered by date.

Edit: oh hell you're right. Not sure how that got mixed up, will fix tomorrow! Sorry about that.

Edit #2: Fixed, won't be an issue in future the code making the chart was fixed..

Quoting: g000hFeel this is a good place to quickly mention a few things about the Humble Monthly Subscription bundles:

I'm something of a regular when it comes to buying the Humble Monthly, and literally just pause it whenever the Early Reveals don't appeal to me (Typically when there are no Linux titles in the early reveals). The last Monthly I bought was the previous one, which included Cultist Simulator, which was a wishlist title for me. I'm certainly tempted with the next one which includes Linux game Northgard.

There is additional motivation for me to buy the bundles even when the Linux titles are a bit lacking, owing to Valve's Steam Play / Proton: It would particularly irritate me if I bought a Monthly and then once the Late Reveals were shown, then there was a distinct lack of Linux titles. Now, this isn't so much of a problem, as a decent amount of them will just work fine on Linux thanks to Proton.

In the last Humble Monthly bundle, 8 games total - 3 games were native Linux (1 in early reveal), the remainder for Windows (and at least 50% of them should definitely work on Linux with Proton). Then as an additional benefit, 4 of the games were DRM-Free Downloads (2 on Linux) and a downloadable soundtrack. Another pleasing thing was the fact that (despite my huge existing game collection) I didn't own any of the titles in the bundle (Hurray!). Access to the Humble Trove, containing masses of DRM-Free Download Games of which many are Linux titles is the icing on the cake.

I basically agree with all of that, all things considered if you do make use of Steam Play it's a fantastic deal and more titles from previous months will start working as Steam Play matures too.

A patch is out, fixing the launching but there's other issues. I've let the developer know.

Quoting: CimerydFor some reason or other, my podcast app can't see the new episodes and insists there are no episodes since 2016. This goes for both the ogg and mp3 link.

What application are you using? The feed is valid and working across three independent checking websites and Thunderbird picks it up fine too. Would like to see so I can find the issue.

Using Pocket Cast for Android. The weird thing is that it correctly sees all the old episodes, just not the new ones.

I see thanks, I've sent them a Twitter message as I see they reply there to see if they can tell me why.
