Just FYI, today Pantheon Shell is now an option, as is KDE neon :)

I think it's easily the best space strategy game available on Linux right now.
Man, I don't know how to take this comment. Is Linux so poor that it doesn't have any good strategy? This could be true, I don't know...

Or do you mean that Stellaries is actually good? Which... isn't the case at all.
Difference of opinion, I love Stellaris, as do many people. I also said space strategy specifically, not strategy as a whole.

The latest 'Steam Client Beta Update' fixes wired Steam Controller support on Linux

The Virtual Keyboard is not something that needs to be ported to specific desktops, it's a feature of Steam.

All platforms have been updated to use FNA, it is not just the GOG version.

Quoting: libgradev@edddeduck_feral Thanks for another top game - purchased through your store :)

As the keys are activated on Steam I take it there's no issue using the same email to purchase another directly from you as a gift?
That's fine, as long as you buy it from the Linux part of their store ;)

It shouldn't matter about email, since Steam keys purchased outside of Steam aren't locked to anything. Unsure how Feral store works directly though.

Well, he is right to contact Feral if people want support, but his locking of those two other posts was a bit weird and there was no reason too. At least this time he isn't be rude or obnoxious.

I've noticed him brushing with Linux users often, as I have too come across him in a forum. He does seem rather anti-Linux.

After more researching, I finally found the original Windows version settings file for Mad Max, which the Linux port also still uses. You can adjust the gamepad sensitivity by doing this:

Edit this file:
.local/share/feral-interactive/Mad Max/VFS/User/AppData/Roaming/WB Games/Mad Max/settings.ini
Look for:
SensitivityPitch=
SensitivityYaw=
I set them both to a higher number and it works as expected. The limit is 100, any higher and the game will reset them both to the default value

I don't think that is up to Feral. I'd love a DRM free copy of Mad max. if it ever happens I will buy another copy happily.
Yes it is. They can do that... They have the publishing rights of the Linux version... We talked a lot about that topic. :|
They still have to adhere to the rules put down by the original publisher.

If a game ported isn't already on GOG, then you should already know the answer dude. It won't be up to Feral to get it approved onto other stores.
