Quoting: PatolaThese so-called "heroes" don't seem so heroic by trying to steal from honest villagers! A better name would be simply "thieves", isn't it?

In many Role Playing Games heroes loot villagers houses. I think this is parody about that.

Pretty much, they said this:

And so we created a game where players will play as both heroes and villagers, in a fun and engaging satire to the entire genre.

It's not meant to be taken overly serious.

Quoting: megaglestI'm just glad there is such an advanced open source game engine in the first place.

Did Liam edit your comment ?

They were testing for XSS.

Angry why? They're right. Speak to the developer.

Quoting: tony1abDon't reach them. Reach Valve. Reach Proton support forums.
They're who, proudly, want to make all the games playable in linux.
They will do their best to make it compatible by fixing things in proton's code by programming, or by making deals with the developers.

Is the game on the Steamplay whitelist? No? Then don't expect support. The whitelist exists for a reason.

Doom is on whitelist and the multiplayer doesn't work either.

Actually it does, as noted here where I took screenshots too. I just tested again today and it works.

The whitelist, also, isn't specifically about what titles get support. Valve are aiming to support as much as possible and you absolutely should report issues with games that have problems. The entire point of their bug tracker is to help with this, so they can see what they can whitelist and what they need to sort out.

Quoting: orochi_kyoThere are more than 3k games with gold status on Protondb, 3000 games you cannot play before without tweaking Wine, others were always unplayable, and you all are whining because a sh!tty Battle Royale game doesnt work, anymore? LOL, cant care less if KIDS are wasting their time playing this cancer called Fortnite, Single player games still have a niche and as I can play those games story or single player modes Im ok with it.
Single players games are strong yet, because since everyone else in playing Fortnite/PUBG some devs doesnt even try to make multiplayer games anymore, they go single player.
Too much whining, that is why some devs prefer to make WIndows games only, yeah Windows gamers are a bunch of whiners too but at least they are a much bigger market than us.

What's with the attitude here? It's really quite poor and I'm shocked to see that from people here.

Your personal preferences for what to play are no better than anyone else's, please don't ever act high and mighty about what games people like, it's quite pathetic.

Your argument on people "whining" is completely idiotic. Anyone would be unhappy when a game they enjoyed suddenly stopped working.

Mal hit the nail on the head with this bit:

Quoting: Malthe take away from this post is that any platinum game (including single player games) can become borked overnight if the developer decides to adopt a library that is not wine compatible

While Darwin wasn't Platinum, the overall point is what's true.

Quoting: liamdawe500 games, that aren't supported by the developer on Linux

Did anyone actually check if those titles are truly not supported? There are games like Shank 2 [External Link] that have official Linux support on Steam but aren't marked as native on ProtonDB. I guess you can still proton-run a Windows version on Linux if you want but I don't think that's the point of the article.

On a somewhat unrelated note, I think many reports hurt ProtonDB more than they help because of people enthusiastically overstating the matter of things and marking games as Platinum while clearly adding a comment that says a workaround was used.

Also, adding a report with old driver marks it as informational, i.e. it doesn't seem to count towards the status.

ProtonDB shows it supports Linux, it has a Linux icon and all just no reports it seems.

Quoting: tonRI wishlisted the game on Steam, isn't considered as "Linux request"?

I bet the vast majority haven't set their platform preference on Steam, which would make a wishlist show up as an unidentified platform.

Actually - this is exactly what my developer console is showing me.

Yeah, it's not ideal and it only works if you set one platform too (an issue for dual-booters). Still, better than nothing, just need Valve to actually direct users towards the setting.

I must say, Overwatch feels really rather smooth with this version. Great job :)

Quoting: aristoriasTrashgames left, trashgames right, trashgames everywhere.

It is really hard to find a decent game these days which doesn't leave the impression that an amateur has developed it in his garage.

Completely rude and unnecessary. You haven't even played it, don't be a tool.
