Quoting: ShabbyXSomeone should write an open-source engine for warcraft 1 and 2!

Weren;t there some engines like that in the past ?
Stratagus and Wargus ?

Stratagus is the strategy game engine, Wargus is the "Warcraft II" client and War1gus "Warcraft I" client.
There is even a Starcraft client called Stargus.
All are still in development: https://github.com/Wargus [External Link]

I bought "Battle Chest® - Warcraft® Remastered" on Batlle.Net and I don't regret it, for an interesting price, you have:

Warcraft® I: Remastered
Warcraft® II: Remastered
Warcraft® III: Reforged (+ Spoils of War bonus)
Warcraft®: Orcs & Humans
Warcraft® II: Battle.net® Edition

And all are compatible out the box with Wine (I use Battle.Net on Lutris).
I advice this pack for all Warcraft fan.

Quoting: legluondunetIf only Steam had the courage to force Ubisoft and other video game publishers not to use their own launcher when selling their games on Steam, Steam being the launcher. I don't want a launcher in a launcher in a launcher...#inception It generates potential additional technical problems and it uses resources for nothing.

I'm really happy they don't.
I'm pretty sure that would be anti-competative and monopolistic behavior.
It costs resources, but it comes from a good place.

Steam has already what a second launcher like Ubisoft or...gives:
- DRM protection
- discussions
- achievements
- Steam workshop
- tchat
...

When you sell a game on Steam, editors should use Steam tools.

VI does not need only a remake, but it's a game to fully rebuild, the actual state is an unfinished project.

The best PS1 emulator, code is still available on Github, so we can still compile it from sources and dev still provides appimage and flatpak packages, so I don't think it will change a lot of things for end user like me.
I read dev comments but i still don't understand why he bothered to change licence...

Quoting: legluondunetYou still need a root password to install Flatpak applications

Only if you want to install it as a system-wide package.

You can install it in your user with the --user option.

Ohhh nice tip! I didn't know that, probably because I've never needed it, but it's still good to know.

I'm sorry to break it to you, but I think in the eyes of most Appimage is a dead format. It had it's place but has been supplanted by Flatpak or even Snap in combination with native app stores and, in extreme cases, distrobox.

Dead format? All the emulators and others apps I use are available this days in Appimage format (and Flatpak too).
You still need a root password to install Flatpak applications, not with Appimage, that makes big difference.
