Eador. Masters of the Broken World Is Still A Sore Spot For Linux Gamers

What's even worse to me is that they paused Carribean! development to fix this game as well. But hey, they're a small team so I can give 'em some slack.

The Witcher 2 Massive RPG Looks Like It Will Be On Linux

I highly recommend any who hasn't tried this to buy it. I also urge people to play the witcher 1 first (the story isn't connected) to understand the settings and references a bit more.

Honestly what purpose does this serve the average user?

CPU PhysX is terrible. But honestly, PhysX adds nothing to a game in terms of gameplay.

I was sad when this kickstarter didn't make it (if I remember correctly). Good to see they're still working.

Also their kickstarter failed, so who knows if they have to payback the means by which they funded the game so far.

and OpenGL limits, in general.
Give me one example of what OpenGL can't but DirectX can and I'll believe.

Quoting: scaineI can't stand Wine. I've had precisely zero success with it, except for a vaguely disappointing success with Half-Life 2 years and years ago. I'm not interested in investing hours of my time for a second-rate experience. If there's no native client, I won't be buying it.

What games were you trying to run? WINE for some games works great. For example I played:

  • Wolfenstein (2009)

  • WoW

  • Pirates of the Carribean (akela)

  • Risen 2

  • Guild Wars 2

  • Skyrim

  • Diablo 3




all on MAX details using WINE just to name a few. Using playonlinux makes wine really easy to get into, and with a little tweaking, games can run great. Abit if you have a rather low end system or aren't willing to tinker a bit, WINE is not for you.
