Owners of Armello on GOG can get a refund due to it not getting DLC and online features

Quoting: KimyrielleWhat a bunch of ~~stupid~~ funny devs. They rather lose money to refunds than keep on letting go of DRM, which they initially did.

Which suggests that there is a legitimate technical reason rather than an ideological one.

My 12-year old is going to be so excited to hear about this. He's been asking me for months when Victor Vran is going to have local co-op.

SteamOS makes sense because it's a lean operating system, but Windows 10 on that thing? Yeah, right.

CD PROJEKT RED replied to me about The Witcher 3 and Linux, flat-out denying to answer any questions

Well, it's not a no, so I guess that's positive.

I wonder if there is some sort of legal action between Valve and the developer which prevents them from being able to comment?

OpenMW 0.40 released, playing Morrowind on Linux natively gets closer to perfection
6 Sep 2016 at 1:24 pm UTC

Quoting: SnowdrakeThis game was so awesome (superior by many aspect to its sequels).

I agree. Morrowind is such an interesting locale compared to the generic medieval settings of Oblivion and Skyrim, and Morrowind had some genuine choice-and-consequences role playing as opposed to Oblivion's and Skyrim's "You can do everything and be awesome at everything!" premise.

Pixar Film Production show off how they use Linux and OpenGL, open sourced a major tool

Linux actually has a huge presence in Hollywood. Every special effects shop uses Linux almost exclusively, from animation software to massive render farms to the final online edit for a finished film. Linux is big, big, big in the world. It's only on the desktop where it continues to struggle.

The developers of Armello are facing a bit of a backlash over the DLC not coming to GOG
3 Sep 2016 at 1:18 pm UTC

Quoting: Ignis
Quoting: EhvisIt makes perfect sense.

If all the content is contained within the game, then the DLC is basically just a validation key. Which is DRM by definition and therefore incompatible GoG.
Or they could’ve made it so characters in a network game are limited to what both players have (and having actual content in DLCs, duh). Still better than that.

That would just piss off players who had bought the DLC and fragment the multiplayer community between the "haves" and the "have nots". League of Geeks is obviously trying to avoid this.
