I also love how their official press page says "PC (Windows, Linux), Mac".
Nice! Next step, getting developers to start using IBM-PC Compatible (Windows, Linux, macOS)

Ah come on! The said they were releasing it on PC. I have two PC's: a MacOS PC and a Linux PC.

I can barely tell what's going on. Did Michael Bay make this?

Quoting: Luke_NukemI've been addicted to this for a while now - playing on macOS.
The game is everything you could hope for, and more.
How's the performance on macOS?
It's... reasonable. I had to turn anti-aliasing off, and reduce effects details - but you know, running on a MacBook Pro with an RX560, and probably with the last openGL version whatever that was. It's good enough for a game or two.

I fully expect the Linux performance to be kilometers ahead.
It’s a metal game... And that’s what you’ll get out of a 560, it’ll be the same on windows.
Oh cool! \m/.

But yeah, honestly though, even with a few deets turned off or down, it still looks great and runs fantastic. Super enjoyable game.

You may very well be right on that one. I would be surprised though, if GOG didn't have some way of tracking it
I'd expect them to track downloads for games - the safest indicator there is (mostly). Someone who games on Linux or macOS isn't going to be downloading the Windows versions.

Awesome! I remember this puttering along at 10fps on my old 486SX50.

I might actually finish it now...

* gitlab
* gogs
* gitolite
In order of decreasing resource usage. (maybe more?)
