Batman: Arkham Knight Will Be Available On Linux And SteamOS In Spring 2016
29 Oct 2015 at 12:45 pm UTC

Apparently the Windows version still runs like crap, and you need a minimum of 12GB RAM if you're using Windows 10! Wouldn't it be ironic if Feral managed to get this running better on Linux than on Windows? Here's hoping.

Larian Rep Responds To Criticism Over The Linux Delay Of Divinity: Original Sin
26 Oct 2015 at 12:08 am UTC

Here's how I see it: they have repeatedly promised a Linux version but didn't take that commitment seriously and have jerked their Linux customers around for over a year. In short, screw them.

I'm sure it's a fine controller, but who pays $150 for a gamepad? I guess some people do, since there is apparently a market for them, but yikes, I would never spend that much on a gamepad, even if I had disposable income a plenty.
The irony, of course, is that I've seen a lot of Microsoft fanboys complaining that at $50, the Steam Controller was overpriced.

Xbox Elite controller looks a bit crap, to be honest, and the price is ridiculous.

Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition Delayed For Linux, Again

Quoting: TobiSGDSo, Raze from Larian replied to the complaints in the Steam forum:
Things can take longer than expected, and projections for software development are sometimes wrong even when trying to be conservative when planning.
Yeah, no sympathy from me. Missing a release window is one thing. Larian, on the other hand, has basically been flipping the bird to their Linux customers for nearly two-years. It's inexcusable.

Quoting: hummer010This is so pathetic, I'd like to laugh ... but Larian already has my money for this game, so instead, maybe I should cry.
And Larian is laughing all the way to the bank.

Quoting: Mountain ManFor that matter, you can even buy Linux-compatible versions of Bioware classics like Baulders Gate 1 and 2, and Icewind Dale.

There's no need to waste a single penny supporting Larian.
Wasn't Baldurs gate and Icewind dale interplay classics made buy Black Isles?
Were they? I could have sworn they were Bioware titles.

O.K., you're right about Icewind Dale, but Baulder's Gate 1 and 2 were definitely Bioware games.

Quoting: EagleDeltaNo matter what they promised, no matter what we expect, their #1 goal is to make money... nothing else.
Sorry, but that in no way justifies screwing over those who invested money in Kickstarter or otherwise purchased the game based on the promise of a day-one Linux release. In fact, they had a moral obligation to release a Linux version the day the Kickstarter goal was met, so don't pretend they'll be doing us a favor if they actually release it.

Quoting: wojtek88Like always when there is a topic regarding Divinity: Original Sin - I hope all of us will follow me and won't support Larian Studios because they don't deserve our support. The only scenario to buy this game is super cheap sale with -90% price when the game is released on linux (or maybe I should use "if" instead of "when").
Otherwise your euros can be spend better. If you don't have Pillars of Eternity - buy it. If you don't have Torchlight 2 - buy it. If you don't have Sword Coast Legends - buy it. If you don't have Witcher 2 - buy it. But for the God's sake don't support developer who that takes from people money and after year and a half of Windows release laughs on those who believed in Linux port and does not provide them a product.
You forgot Wasteland 2!

For that matter, you can even buy Linux-compatible versions of Bioware classics like Baulders Gate 1 and 2, and Icewind Dale.
