It has been confirmed for a long time that playing with Proton counts as a Linux purchase.

This is also noted on the Steam Tracker.

Quoting: Pikolo`Ubuntu Core 22 64 bit` is probably the snap version of Steam - is the the default packaging on Ubuntu 24.04?
Ah, Ubuntu changed the default package type found in software centre to be snap, and Steam snap is out of beta.

A bit late on this, but it is indeed the Snap package confirmed by Canonical.

Quoting: BlooAlien

Warning: This title uses 3rd-party DRM (Ubisoft Connect, Denuvo Anti-Tamper).

:sad: Well, that dashes that hope right to the rocks...

Denuvo doesn't stop games working with Proton.

I've messaged the developer, and emailed Valve about it because it keeps happening.

It's fixed. I can play the Linux version now. Thank you for the effort.:happy:

Good stuff, it’s exactly what I told them it was :)

Quoting: DodgerI bought the game today. The Linux version isn't available. The size of the game is exactly 0 bytes. This happens a lot lately.

It appears they've set it for both Linux and Steam Deck, they need to remove the Steam Deck setting on it, since that forces it to be only downloadable on Steam Deck.

Valve really need to improve the messaging in the Steam admin.

Quoting: SalvatosYou might want to check your list, Liam, as neither Fera nor Enotria have a Linux demo as far as I can tell.

Correct, noted above they're a separate list for Proton.

Quoting: Mountain ManThe Humble Bundle just isn't as enticing as it used to be. They still claim "pay what you want" but then lock the best games behind the highest price threshold. I miss the days when it was literally "pay that you want".

To be "devil's advocate" for a moment: the PWYW model was only good for players after the initial boom where people were quite generous. Developers and Humble all need to make money from it, so it makes sense to have a minimum that still gives players a better deal than buying individually (and usually by quite a lot too).

The bundles haven't been PWYW for a long time now, can't remember the last time I saw that, multiple years no doubt. It's almost always "Pay at least" now.
