Quoting: pete910mmmm, not convinced , It uses the Denuvo DRM I belive. Thought that wasn't cross platform.

Maybe they just care less when it comes to Mac/Linux releases. Having those without Denuvo is not likely to get Windows users to install a different OS just to pirate that it.

Also, DRM is most useful for the first month or so. After that, the sales peak has gone anyway. I doubt we'll get it that soon anyway.

Looks like I wasn't the only one to check steamdb just after release ;-) It's there with depots and a configuration, so more than just a hint.

Also, that makes my invisible forum post rather pointless. How long do you get moderator queued on there for new discussions?

As I understand it, Unreal Engine only has Vulkan in the Mobile renderer yet. Which means that not all features of the engine are currently supported. Come to think of it, the list of fully released UE4 titles on Linux is pretty small as well.

I assume that Linux confirmation means that they upgraded to Unreal Engine 4 since the kickstarter.

Quoting: grenadecxCool thing, but I've no respect for Phil Fish after his opinion about streaming content.

Anyone not following, here's an article about it:
Fez Creator Phil Fish: YouTubers Should Pay Game Devs "Huge Portion" of Revenue

I know he is not the one porting it, but still, I suppose he gets revenue somewhere along the line.

Meh, as long as doesn't go around dmca-ing videos I couldn't care less...

If you think about it, it is actually interesting that people are allowed to put a game front to back on youtube or twitch without the consent of the creator. I'd imagine most would have no problem with it due to the exposure that it creates. But maybe form some primarily story driven games this would not be so good.

Actually, the allowed part is an assumption. I don't recall this ever having been tested. If this is actually challenged in court and ruled in favor of the creators, it could require youtubers and streamers to request approval.

So what?

Twitter says "Austin, TX". So I imagine their workday hasn't even started yet.

With Skylines being a continued development from Cities in Motion 2, I would expect it to be Unity 4. At the moment I can only recall Kerbal Space Program doing a Unity 4 to Unity 5 conversion and it appears that it took quite a bit of effort. Also, they may still be busy porting features over from CiM2 into C:S. :P

Quoting: Mountain ManI thought it was already confirmed that Civ 6 is coming to Linux.

I recall it being mentioned, but it's not listed on Steam(DB) yet and it still needs someone to actually do the port.

Personally I hope it's something different too. I'm partial to the Bioshock Remastered suggestion!

Civ 6 actually sounds kind of reasonable.

Quoting: GuestI wish I would have heard about it earlier in time to get alpha access.

For $40 you can still get alpha access from their website.
