Quoting: EikeI'd be happy enough if they could remove their tab from my Steam inventory page...

I'd be happier if Steam could let me manage that mess better.

I like the new (old?) look better. It doesn't feel as much like it tries to be Fortnite now.

But still, even if they manage to get their game running properly, they need to make it fun. Which means they need to have a lot of players (which is unlikely to happen in the beginning) or need to do something special for smaller player numbers. If not, it'll be dead again before you know it.

Looks like they're aiming for much smaller and compact matches than the big BR games. Which is good because they can avoid the player number problems that certain other crazy BR titles suffer from.

I'm also committed to becoming a billionaire! The likelihood of that happening .... Let's not talk about that. :D

Quoting: elmapulxorg is obsolete, and wayland is not even close to be ready for the prime time, so...

They don't need any of that stuff. All they need to do compress the rendered frames of a single program into a video stream, combine it with audio and send it off to the great beyond. Plenty of open tools that can do that already.

Quoting: Mohandevir1-2% of marketshare is still better than 0$... Must have failed my maths courses.

In this case you did. First of all, it's 1-2% of PC users. Much less with consoles included. Second, it's not compared against $0, but against the potential profit of those people working on something for Windows+Console. And I can assure you that that is worth much more. The financial argument for supporting Linux only works if you don't have something else lined up to work on.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80

Quoting: EhvisI wouldn't be surprised if they *only* support steam games in Proton and not generic wine.

Well its not really an issue as the patches proton are sent upstream so no reason why wine wont just run out the box like proton but yeah if you have an issue it wont be supported. Why i guess brings people on to I dont use steam because DRM etc etc personally I admire the mindset it's just not one i share.

I meant that it will be made in such a way that it can't work in a generic Wine. After all, the purpose of the thing is to see everything that happens. That's simply not going to be possible with generic Wine. Well, maybe if they interface with a root level module on the native side.

The gameplay is a bit unclear, but it does look properly silly!

Tried it for two minutes yesterday. Since I have no history with minecraft at all, I just had an "is this it?" moment.
