The Witcher 3 didn't come to Linux likely as a result of the user-backlash from The Witcher 2

Quoting: MilesI'm not sure I understand. How is this different from the Windows platform complaints of the same type? I still chuckle at all the various comments from the Windows users complaining about extreme problems with WB's Arkham Knight (my favorite saying that it was like watching a PowerPoint presentation, the graphics were so broken!). This seems like a an unfair double-standard showing that they have very thin skin for business acumen. This won't serve them well on any platform in the long run. I ended up purchasing Witcher II despite the problems because I had faith that they might fix it. I was proven right and for that, I would have given them good word or mouth, reviews and more purchases. I know that this is being reported as just rumor but if this truly is their reasoning and it's later confirmed as true, however, I will no longer be interested in buying their products on ANY platform, much less Linux and I will be sure to mention their attitude and thin skin.
It's different to windows since on windows (and other consoles) they have their largest customer base.
If you had a restaurant and 1% of people had a special dietary need and when you try to cater to it they threaten you , would you bother ? I know I wouldn't.

Also this isn't about being thin skined.
It's about threats to someones family.
This is criticism:
"Your game is bad. I will not buy from you again"

This is not :
"I hope your family dies"

A few trolls you can ignore , sure , but when you get these in the tens or hundreds , then what ?

I had my doubts on this one and seems they might be justified.

Quoting: g000hI find quite a few things upsetting in the world of Linux gaming.

I really loved "Legend of Grimrock" - It was one of the first decent games I played on Linux (bought it on GOG) about 4 years ago. So happy to be able to play that wonderful game on Linux. And then, the next one - Legend of Grimrock 2 - What's going on, it's not on Linux. Well, I picked it up anyway, and thanks to WINE I was still able to play it on Linux although I would have much preferred a native version. (Devs at Almost Human - fingers crossed, then I can play it again, *properly* .)

And then I look at other titles which have done similarly:
The Witcher 2 - Hurray, it's on Linux. The Witcher 3 - Aww no. There isn't a Linux port.
The Banner Saga - cool, a Linux port. The Banner Saga 2 - No Linux port.
Shadow Warrior (2013) - Played it on Linux recently. Shadow Warrior 2 - It should be coming to Linux eventually, but nothing so far, sniffle.
Codemaster's F1 2015 came to Linux. F1 2016 - No Linux port ( due to not enough interest in the 2015 game).
Divinity: Original Sin - A Linux Port. Divinity: Original Sin 2 - No Linux port.
That's an interesting observation really.
Kinda sad we lose the support throughout a series.

Reading the itch comments seems some bugs are present.
I'm not one for pre-orders so will wait and see.

Can we do a drunken stream ?

I will order booze for the whole cast (aka Liam , Sin and Samsai)

Lemme know some online store and let's get trashed :D :D D
Might cost you a bit since Samsai lives in a different country to us ;)
I think Tuubi mentioned some stores in Samsai's country do delivery.
Just need some websites.

Let's make a stream for the ages.

Quoting: razing32Apparently the words to advance the game feel like the old adventure trope of rub everything on everything else.
. . . So this is an x-rated game? ;)
Nah , those are boring most of times :P

The share of Linux users on Steam is still holding steady

Seems a bit simplistic mate.
You think there's enough mileage in it ?

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Hmm.
Can you link the guide please ?
Also , don't have a retail copy. Just have the digital version. :(

the guide is for play on linux but other than that only changes i made were to win version and screen size. It should not be a problem either version. Also the pol utility does actually have an updated script for sc2.[/quote]Thank you very much :)
