The Humble Daedalic Bundle 2018 is a good deal for Linux gamers

Thank you! It would appear GOG also just recently (i.e. today) got this update! But your warning has been noted.
As we know, "Humble IGN" has almost zero quality control and support which, coupled with its overblown prices, makes no reason to get the game there. GOG, on the other hand, times and times again demonstrated that it will not stand up to Linux users should a developer abandon Linux version (e.g. with "Sudden Strike 4" and lack of 1.08 update). And this particular developer have just demonstrated its inclination to do so (next time we might not be so lucky and the update will not show up).
So… I have my grave doubts even current 50% discount justifies the purchase. Better wait and see what happens in the next several years and get it dirt-cheap (and preferably, even cheaper :D ).

Quoting: NonjuffoThis is the version reported in the files: 2.2.10.F.Linux.2018_04_13_1755 r2753. Doesn't work for me though.

It is not always true (like, for me, it is cheaper on GOG and Steam due to regional pricing which "Humble IGN Inc." lacks for obvious reasons), but the real question is…
Does it have v2.2.2f on Humble account or the developers dropped support there as well as on GOG?

Nothing in the list appeals to me.
My choise is:
1) Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
2) X4: Foundations

What I must say…
1) FSCK "they". That's just plain wrong and should not exist! IT is the correct pronoun! Anyone without gender specefication should be addressed IT, as it always was. :D Like "Yesterday I saw a dog on a street. It was kinda cute!"
2) The whole dispute is moot as the game is not available on Linux. We are basically discussing non-existent thing.

I love DRM free games! Even (slightly) more than Linux games (which technically gives a Windows-only game some slight chances with me).
Well, saying that, I am not really interested in Hacknet (and have it on Humble account, DRM-free, of cource). Still, I love DRM free games, and that's it.

Actually bought it this time, thanks for the discount (it is rather unusual: more often than not devs seem to take delight in adding Linux version just after a promo ends in order to further piss Linux users off). :)
NVIDIA dropping support for 32bit Linux this month, also dropping Fermi series support

My netbook was not capable of running pretty much anything even in its prime in 2010 (32-bit only Intel Atom N270, Intel GMA 945). Still, not worth replacing it with something recent due to its purpose (PDF presentations, lectures).

Quoting: Mountain ManAnybody running a 32-bit OS in 2018 probably doesn't have the hardware capable of running any game released in the past few years anyway.
