Sent them an email about this. The tone of that email was not appreciative. It's not acceptable that we're still considered second class citizens.

System Shock remake has blasted past the Linux stretch goal, officially coming to Linux

This will once again boost Linux usage as a gaming platform if done right! Now that the Linux stretch goal has been reached, i expect Nightdive to take the port as seriously and with dedication as the Windows one.

Quoting: Xpander
Quoting: m2mg2Nvidia driver 367??? That isn't even Fedora repo's. I only uninstalled the repo binary driver 35-something and compiled the binary from Nvidia a couple of weeks ago to get Vulkan support. Are they using Vulkan, what would the reason to require such a recent driver be? Seems like the majority of Linux users would not have this version, am I wrong?
367.27 is quite old already, 367.35 is a thing atm
i don't know why some distros hold back driver updates... its just stupid imo
True dat. BTW, Nomme Kalju just beat Maccabi Haifa in UCL qualifiers after penalties =)

A very nice and warm wallpaper, lots of heart in it! Crossed my mind that a GOL t-shirt / hoodie would be awesome.. I'd buy several just for support.

The latest Steam Hardware Survey shows a rather insignificant drop for Linux

Only 1 single time ever i've gotten that survey in about 2 years.

Nightdive Studios are making a System Shock Linux demo after gathering feedback
2 Jul 2016 at 2:22 pm UTC Likes: 2

I too sent Nightdive Studios an email on the Linux demo:

Hello Nightdive Studios!

System Shock remake and Kicstarter....

How do you expect Linux users to back this, without
guarantee?

How about making the demo available for us to test? So
that we can work towards your stretch goal at the very least.

Of course, Linux and OSX shouldn't even be stretch goals IMO. It makes us
feel like second class citizens, again. Just saying that you'll make a
Linux port doesn't suffice.

We'd love to back you up, but we need something tangible for it first. I
hope you understand.
Got a reply:

We're working on demo versions for addition platforms including Linux,
please keep checking back on Kickstarter for updates :)

Thanks for your support!

So even The Linux Gamer hadn't gotten the survey for YEARS!? There's something very peculiar about this damn survey without a question.
