$100 is way too low. Junk games and scammers can easily make back 10x that or more before their stuff gets flagged and pulled. I think $1000 would have been better.

Quoting: STiATYeah, you're not going to get that information through an informal, voluntary survey on a message forum. You need to do an accrual marketing study.Quoting: Mountain ManThe question is: How large is the interest? Could a port be worth it? Is it worth the risk?If you are interested in a Linux version, please sign here.Oh give me break. Of course there is interest in a Linux version. Why do developers even bother asking this question?

Total War games have always been a bit of a pig. Curiously, Total Warhammer seems to be the best running of the bunch even though it's the newest.

Does this affect your freedom of speech if I think you're being naughty and idiotic and force the queue to always be on for you? No. Very few sites don't moderate comments, don't be silly.Too many people misunderstood what freedom of speech is anyway. You have the right to say whatever you want within the law, but nobody is obligated to grant you a platform from which to say it. Don't want to be moderated? Then start your own website where you will be able to exercise freedom of speech to your heart's content.

Quoting: ExpalphalogI do not understand the aversion towards asking for something that you want.It's not elitism. Of course there is interest in games for Linux. It's a silly question, that's all.
This is the first time since my switch to Linux that I am starting to see the "toxic elitism" that Windows users always accuse us of exhibiting. Shame on you. If you don't want the game, ignore it. If you do, saying so won't hurt anything.

Screw 'em. Either release it for Linux, or don't, but don't expect us to beg for it.

Quoting: salamanderrakeGlad I don't care about multiplayer with this game, but this is some bull shit, all the time its Linux and Mac multiplayer, no windows, thats what kills the chances in some games picking up on Mac and Linux, like with Arma3.It's not bullshit. Different maths libraries make cross-platform multiplayer impossible because matches would quickly become out of sync. This will always be a problem for games that were built for Windows first and ported to Linux second. The only way around it is to use a cross-platform maths library, but Windows-only game houses don't think of that sort of thing and use whatever is built into Windows.
