SteamOS/Linux Version Of Gauntlet Cancelled
24 Jul 2015 at 9:40 pm UTC

Quoting: InokiMy system is a perfect example, where I can't even launch LibreOffice without crashing my entire session (I already reported an Xorg bug, let's see how long will it take them to fix it. It's taking already more than 6 months.) Then there's the microphone not working and I'm not even going to continue.

So much for people entering Linux.

Linus said, that it bothers him, that Linux is doing great as a server platform but not as a desktop, which was his intent. We know the solution to this problem. Now to get to work, so consumers get working, not broken systems.
I have to assume you're a paid shill for Microsoft engaging in the age old practice of astroturfing forums with FUD about Linux. I run Kubuntu and have not had a single issue with LibreOffice, and my microphone works perfectly. In fact, Kubuntu has been far more stable and user friendly than any version of Windows I've ever used. Whatever problems you're (supposedly) having with Linux are far from typical.

Quoting: HonorEDnlKWhat's with people and taking names for something that's more general and just shove it to something specific, that's what the people who say PC when they intend to say Windows are doing. And I rightfully hate that practice.
Blame the Apple marketing juggernaut with their "I'm a Mac; and I'm a PC" commercials which drilled it into people's heads that PC = Windows. Still, you'd expect a software developer to know better.

Their loss then. This is why developers need to make their software cross platform from day one instead of making a Windows version first and then trying to port it to Linux.

Also, we need to get it through people's heads that PC is not synonymous with Windows. Windows is Windows. PC simply means "personal computer" and can refer to Linux, OSX, and Windows.

I would never install Uplay on my Linux box. Installing it in Windows was bad enough.

Personally, I think it's great that they tease us, but they still have to deliver on Shadow of Mordor yet.
Indeed.

Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic II Released For Linux, With Preview Port Report
21 Jul 2015 at 6:32 pm UTC

All I ever heard about this game when it was first released was that it was buggy and obviously incomplete with storylines and subplots simply dropped without resolution, so I've never been inclined to play it.

That's a Feral port, not Aspyr. And besides, that was released for Linux months ago.

It would be awesome if it was Shadow of Mordor, but it's unlikely that Aspyr would be teasing a Feral port.
