Thanks a lot for the port! This will surely bring me some fond memories!

I've already finished the game on Linux, and I certainly recommended it, as I really enjoyed the game. Was also expecting a review on GoL ;)
As stated in the previous post and in the article it's a pretty good puzzle game, with logical solutions in the vein of Myst with an interesting background story.
The environment is beautiful and it was a joy to spend my time in the realm of Quern. I congratulate the small development team of Zadbox, they did an amazing job.
However, I wish the game was better optimized for linux. With settings on high/medium and 720p resolution the framerates were inconsistent and sometimes low (around 20 fps), other times higher (reaching 60 fps), but certainly playable. In addition, the game crashed for me about 3 times. My specs are: linux mint 18.1, i7 3770k, nvidia gtx 670 (proprietary drivers), 16gb of ram.
Nonetheless, it is great to have such a game on Linux.
Cheers!

Nier: Automata on Linux would be awesome!
Come on Feral, linux gamers need this.

Quoting: GuestI’d like to play it but thanks to the demo I could see that it’s unplayable with my bépo keyboard because the game doesn’t recognize accented keys or other characters like '"', '(', ')'… Too bad.

Try using a controller. It plays great with a x360 controller.

Quoting: hummer010If I have one complaint about the game, it's that the load/save times are pretty long. I really like the timer showing my how long it's been since I last saved, but I'm sometimes reluctant to save, just because it's bit long and distracting.

Loading times are a lot faster with a SSD drive.

Quoting: SchattenspiegelGreat, but and now the tray menu is broken...

Yeap :( noticed that too in my ubuntu 16.04 machine.

Edit: Solved with "sudo apt install libdbusmenu-gtk4:i386" as hinted in the link provided bellow. Thanks.

Already had the game but bought useless DLC to support Feral.

Quoting: dubigrasuI bought The Dig, never heard of it until now but looks promising.
I watched a bit of a gameplay and I was sold.
Its soundtrack seems pretty good too.

The DIG is a great game. I played it many years ago but I have fond memories of that game.

Finished this game twice and you play a third time on linux. Works fine with WINE but a port is certainly welcome. This game is the "Apocalyse Now" of video games! Highly recommended.
