Opinion: Why We Want Native Ports Only

Quoting: Maelrane
Quoting: dubigrasuOf course we want and prefer native ports, and even VP supporters do. No one sane would think otherwise.
But when I have to choose between a VP port and nothing, I choose the VP port.
Depends on the game, really. And on the performance of the port. Because if the port is running abysmal I do not care whether it's native or a wrapper port, I'll request a refund, because I don't support bullshit.
Well, I do prefer to see devs working on native ports regardless of the game involved, even if they're not so successful initially (see Dying Light). It did suck badly at first but got better and I finished the game without issues. I had no intentions of asking for a refund.

And actually, I would like to see devs working on Linux (native or wrappers) ports period. It happened the same with Witcher 2; disaster initially while perfectly playable now.

So if native is not possible for whatever reason, I'll take the wrapped one, pay the guys and say thanks either way.

I remember when in 2010 (I think) Liam used to post on various Linux forums advertising his new site.
Nobody knew about GamingOnLinux of course and he was promptly banned on several sites as a spammer.

Quoting: LinuxDonaldDoes anyone know how to fix the mouse bug??
Don't know about a fix, but a workaround was to go full-screen off for a sec and then back on.
