Quoting: AnxiousInfusion

Quoting: PlintslchoThere're people way older than you are that still greatly enjoy Minecraft, believe me. ;-)

Ironically, the only people who are adamant that Minecraft is for kids are those who were recently children/young teens. That said, I am pleased to see Minecraft still works well on Linux even though it is owned by Microsoft. I can only wonder how much longer this version equality will last and so I've been cozying up real close to Minetest lately.

I think that the version equality will be there for a long time since it's the same version due to Minecraft being a Java application. Of course they could always try and force the XBOX version as the only version (guessing here that that version is not written in Java) but there is nothing that indicates that this is on the road map.

We are not on Twitter though.

To use @ to refer to users on forums happened many many years before Twitter existed.

Quoting: Guest1. Any special reason why would you support Unity3D?
2. Everyones acting like X11 is the past and is really buggy and slow - but really most don't have real problems with X11 and if there are problems let us fix them or rewrite parts if neccesarry.

But X11 is the past and is really buggy (try for example to create a 100% no-one-can-bypass screen saver lock for X11). More to the point is that the devs behind X11 is the same devs that are creating Wayland.

The only sad thing with these nice changes to Unity3D is that AFAIK Unity3D is statically linked to each game and does not exist as a shared resource in for example Steam so for this new version to be used games have to be updated one by one(?).

Quoting: TheRiddickFeral should port Skyrim then/or Fallout4... just saying.

Is it Feral who choose what to port, or the development/publisher house approaching Feral?

Must be the publisher! How should they get the source code otherwise? Also they wouldn't have any rights for distribution then.

Or it's Feral who reaches out to the publisher to make a deal in which Feral buys the distribution rights for OSX and Linux. Consider that Feral sells their ports on their own shop, people who simply create ports don't do that. And if you go to Sega's webshop and select LINUX as platform you cannot find Alien: Isolation.
