The 'Razer DeathAdder Chroma' is quite possibly the nicest mouse I've ever owned

Unless Razer has dramatically improved the quality of their products, I can't recommend them. I used to be a bit of a Razer fanboy until two of the three Razer products I owned developed significant faults. Read any review of Razer products and you'll find that a majority of people have had similar experiences. Stay away from Razer. They're overpriced, and you'll be lucky to get six-months out their products.

Quoting: BeamboomI get Doom vibes. The lava glow in the Feral letters at the end there? Lot's of lava in Doom. The weapon is of course the chaingun.

Please please... Let it be Doom.
I hope you're right.

So is it open-world, or is it like Wasteland 2? Because Wasteland 2 really isn't open-world.

Great. I may consider buying it when it's actually released with Linux support.

"Yes, we will release on Linux as well as Steam OS."

So... they'll release on Linux.

Based on these comments, it sounds like "free" is a fair asking price for the Linux port.

Really..? I can't see, why you actually need to have high fps in a board game like Civilization. Certainly, on low-end hardware, the game is stuttering. However, you don't need a high-end rig to play it properly. I do my "good-night Civ 6 sessions" with playable performance on a i5-4200U + 730M notebook (with integrated GPU it's pretty unplayable though).
It's not unplayable, and it's still a fantastic game (I rate it as one of the best Civ games ever made). It's just that it would be nice to see it running at 60FPS rather than 20FPS late-game. Even though it's turn-based, nice, smooth graphics would enhance the feel.

When you only have a couple of interns working part-time on your Linux port, it can take awhile to get things done.

That said, those guys have done a hell of a job on this port.

It doesn't look like there are any Linux specific fixes in the patch. I was hoping for some performance improvements.

Ashes of the Singularity almost has Vulkan ready, doesn't have Linux on the radar right now

If they had done their job right, they could have had the Linux version out yesterday. When will developers learn that trying back into a Linux port is the wrong way to do it?
