The Night of the Rabbit is also pretty sweet, although I remember it getting a little weird at the end (played it before I switched to Linux; according to ProtonDB it requires some tweaking).

Oh, this is giving me hope for Horizon Zero Dawn. Can’t wait to see how that runs, I hope Valve give it special treatment as well :)

Kickstarter allows campaign extensions now?

Quoting: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redmartyr/saint-kotar/posts/2892534In normal circumstances Kickstarter doesn't allow extensions, but the spread of COVID-19 has created uncertainty and stress for so many people, including developers and backers alike, that they decided to make exceptions. We believe the pandemic has played its part in slowing down this project.

Interesting.

Calling it now: after several weeks of fixing bugs and patching in response to player feedback, they’ll delay the ports again to "focus on making it the best experience for everyone first".

I’ve stopped folding due to the hot weather and lack of A/C, but I should rejoin in the fall :)

Tried the Iron Oath demo; seems to be Windows only for now but runs just fine via Proton.

QuoteThey've also seen some controversy elsewhere. In the trailer at about 0:46, you can see characters chasing the protagonist wearing masks. Apparently this caused a stir as some claimed it was a racial stereotype. The team released a statement on Facebook to apologize and they will be adjusting that model to remove the dreadlocks, change their "bold lips", skin tone and change the dart blower "so it looks less like a joint".

What the actual... Are they going to go after the protagonist's winter coat next for being cultural appropriation?

I love the animations so much, I hope the actual gameplay turns out to be relevant to my tastes as well :)

That's not what I’m reading from Mal’s post at all. They’re saying that even if you get the Steam keys for free, there is a cost to then distribute and control those keys outside of Steam. Meaning that you may be better off just selling them on Steam and letting Valve take their cut if you don’t have the infrastructure in place to handle this easily.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPFrom a developers perspective - and most devs don't care about Linux, that's the sad truth - the Epic deal is really damn good.

For whom? for users? I live in Argentina and I can tell you: Epic is far to be damn good even for Windows users. I fail to see where is better for users, which is what we are.

The text you quoted literally starts with "From a developers perspective".
