Quoting: Stupendous ManI suppose the question we all want answered is: do cloaks show?The game as far as I could tell, doesn't have cloaks.

Quoting: GuppyFeel free to include an "executive summary"Both myself and BTRE included a summary near the end. A one line "TLDR" won't do the game any justice.

1- Report Bug (missing OS support)
2- Negative Análisis (misleading advertising)
3- Refund

Quoting: GuestIt wasn't the most polished game at release no, but tons of games have so many issues that never get fixed, I am personally thankful they have supported it as well as they have so far. It gained plenty of new features during these free patches, the kind of stuff other developers would have happily put into DLC, Uber aren't as evil as people keep trying to say they are.Quoting: liamdaweThat's because it wasn't a polished game when it was released and should have never been released when it was. Those "free updates" were patches, and them slowly attempting to deliver a full game. Every game should have free bug fixes and should be finished.Quoting: TcheyI still didn't digest their price/DLC/Community policy.Continuing to develop and support games costs a lot of money over time, producing a newer version with lots of new features is time consuming, not every developer can do that sort of thing for free. They continue to support both PA and PA Titans, PA got tons of free updates over it's life.

@Beamboom the correct way is "should have", but let's not have article comments descend into grammar hell?

Note: It seems the PTE is up to date for Linux, I misread what it said when you load up about version numbers and needing to edit a file to make it think it's an older version (likely to play online). Removed that note about it being outdated from the article to be clear.
It's looking like Linux may hit 3,000 games on Steam by the end of 2016

Quoting: Crystal DaggerI played all the episodes they've released twice without a crash or any other problem. Guess I'm lucky?This is not Valve's Half-Life or episodes, this is Black Mesa.
