Feral Interactive are teasing a Linux announcement for tomorrow, hype train is leaving the station

Quoting: STiATI doubt that any game supporting Vulkan will come out any time soon, since drivers of the Ubuntu LTS are not up for it (NVidia 304.131)
Feral's had drivers newer than what's been available out-of-the-box on Ubuntu as a minimum requirement before.
This, Feral generally recommend much newer drivers, in fact i don't think they even support the older drivers.

It could be anything.

Quoting: IvancilloI think this is the promised Two Worlds II, which is suppoused to be released this month with a new DLC.
I think that Two Worlds II already has a mac version and they claim to be a big title for both windows and mac :D We shall wait and see ^_^ Feral guys are the real MVP of the gaming industry! :D
TWII is an in-house port to Linux and already announced by the developers.

Quoting: liamdaweGreat news, will you bag a copy when it releases for Linux?
I will most definitely bag a copy, thanks for asking. In fact, I will bag it so hard I'd better find a really sturdy bag and hope the copy survives the impact. I should also find a good therapist for my wallet.
I got this for you, looks like your thing:

I don't see it ;)

Here's my review and video of 'RIVE', a fast paced & beautiful action game and the last game from Two Tribes

Quoting: GuestThen that would be a steam issue since the game was designed for a regular gamepad.
No, again, developers set whatever they want as the default. They haven't set anything, so it was information for people on how to just get it working. I have two, I use one every day, I am well aware of what I am talking about ;)

Quoting: GuestI wouldn't have called the default config of the steam controller an "issue", it was never really intended to be a regular gamepad and anyone who has one should know it's remappable.
Let's say the game was designed for an xbox pad, and the offical pad didn't work, then it would be an issue. ;)
The point is, the default set for this game is wrong. Developers can set any config they like as the default.

If you don't own Company of Heroes 2 yet, it's now 75% off on Steam, go get it

Even if you don't plan to play until later, it likely won't get cheaper than this again this year.

GOG will be adding games with virtual items purchases, according to changes in legal agreements
14 Sep 2016 at 9:54 am UTC Likes: 1

This is really murky waters, it will essentially allow games full of micro transactions on GOG.

It's probable there are a few already and GOG are just covering their backs legally.

Virtual items/currency and GOG Wallet funds are not covered by this section 6 and we cannot therefore offer refund, early exchange, money back guarantee or withdrawal rights regarding them.
So essentually their refund options don't apply to microtransactions.

Also
6.17 Virtual Goods are digital items only with no cash-value or real world existence and cannot be ‘bought’, ‘sold’, gifted, transferred or redeemed, whether or not for other Virtual Goods, ‘real world’ money, goods, services or items of monetary value. Trading Virtual Goods is prohibited (unless you are specifically permitted to do so).
So no selling your virtually purchased goods, so it won't be like the Steam marketplace.

This is all to cover their own backs for in-game purchases essentially, nothing more by the sounds of it.
