I've always thought about it as an Earth 2150/2160 type game, mostly for the looks I guess.
I really like how some projects like this continues for years with dedication.

Looks interesting. Kind of afraid of being "burned out" before it's finished though, so will have it bookmarked for a while and see how it goes.

Great. Need to fire up this one again as I've totally forgotten about it.

I would like to add that I do consider the availability of games as a gift. It is a chance for us to proof that Linux is worth an investment and to proof that the people behind their organization that supported Linux are not wrong. My guessing is that every port to Linux starts with a big internal fight/discussion if porting to Linux is feasible at all.

I have no problems supporting devs I like. I've even gifted 2-3 copies of games just to show my support. I've even bought a couple of games I have no intention of playing just because the devs have been awesome :P

My problem with EA isn't just Westwood, it's BF, SimCity etc too. BF has just become a glorified CoD game with vehicles. I liked Dune, C&C, SimCity etc. Now we get less gameplay content, have to pay for small maps/map packs, no dedicated server support other than official "licensed" ones, no mod support etc. It's about milking, nothing more. It's not about passion for making games or supporting the community. There are no games left that I'm interested in so I have no reason to buy EA games anymore.

The ones that comes to the rescue are usually the Indie devs, and I think the future is there, more "specialized" games for whatever ppl are interested in that creates their own bubbles/communities.

If it's EA, I won't buy, Linux or not. If it's someone else using the engine to make a game that supports Linux, then I'm in.

Looks really good and will def buy it.
I like how they don't add too much fancy stuff to each game just to attract new players, but I also find the first games more charming than the new ones. I loved T2.

Oh, I actually have that in my library and played it for a while on Windows. I really liked it but forgot about it when battling my way out of W10 hell so this sounds nice.

Looks interesting. I miss the the old days in Planetside 2, so I'll pretend I'm back :P

Plugged in the PS4 controller and it shows the wrong cancel and attack buttons since I switched the profile. The X screensaver also popped up in the middle of the game so had to turn that off.
Other than that it runs great and looks good. Not far into the story yet though.
