Quoting: dxmnIt’s a little disappointing to me that the method they used to implement this wasn’t a project like Legendary, but you have to download the proprietary launcher, run it through their custom patched Wine, etc. I’m not complaining as long as it works.

Perhaps the legendary team need to reach out given lutris has been around for about ten years

Quoting: peta77If they'd give it modern graphics, I'd grab it. But this pixelated stuff is not something I like.

It's kinda the point that it's built on an enhanced build engine. Personally I like the visual style but I am not a fan of the game because I play games for the story and this has none. Because I ve been gaming since the late 80s monster closet games do nothing for me same problem I had with painkiller series

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Its a bit merky as here in the UK you have a legal right to refund if something is not of mercentable quality ie a game that doesnt work is not fit for purpose so under consumer rights act you can get a refund regardless of valve of game dev position on it.

I cannot imagine this would apply here. The "purpose" is running under Windows, the rest is your problem.

No its not because it doesnt matter the purpose of the game is to be played if you cant then its not fit for purpose

:dizzy:

Of course it is ! That's akin to putting petrol in your diesel car then complaining to trading standards that it dont work!

Not arguing am saying its the law

Quoting: kit89I hope they enable it, I enjoyed Vermintide 1 and look forward to trying Vermintide 2 once they enable Proton access.

I don't think many developers will have an issue enabling the feature so long as they can explicitly state they aren't supporting it and for the community to accept that, though I am not certain what the actual legal position is (presumably different on a per country basis)?

Its a bit merky as here in the UK you have a legal right to refund if something is not of mercentable quality ie a game that doesnt work is not fit for purpose so under consumer rights act you can get a refund regardless of valve of game dev position on it. As its none optional the law is the law the only issue is you will most certainly have to fight for it. As to my knowledge valve is the only one that fallen fowl of it so far and its part of the reason steam refunds are a thing. Australia of course go further and say there is no time period on requesting a refund for a game whatever your reasons are which is why valve refund policy is different in australia and so on. But personally if they but a banner and i mean plastered across the game images game may not work under linux and is not suported.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleWe're about to find out how little some of these publishers/developers actually care about Linux. "just a few clicks", can they be bothered?

sadly history has proven No no they can't

Quoting: GuestIn fairness, I have no doubt that these preorders are a limited run to gauge interests before they go into mass production

And they do the same trick for GPUs an PS5?

No, no matter how many they want to make, there's a supply problem.

Well kind of AMD arent making any other apus that feature rdna 2 at the minute that apu is exclusive to the steam deck. remermbering that an apu takes less waffer to make than a full fledged cpu, because of the reduced sizes of the l3 l2 cache compared to full ryzen cpus

Quoting: scainePlanetside 2... I last played that in 2012, on Windows, a year before jumping ship forever. It's... it's still going???

This is all just incredible. Amazing. I'm gobsmacked. Valve just smacked me in the gob!

Yup planetside 2 is still a thing not as many on the server but you can still get good fights

Love the total war games but just not feeling this one i played wh 1 & 2 and they were fun but was kind of hoping for a more modern history take or hell even making a good game of thrones rts ( the one that exsists is terrible)Also doesnt help when people first said warhammer 3 was coming i was thinking finally a tw warhammer 40k game but nah its warhammer 2 re skinned. Hope am wrong hope its a completely new game I ll pick it up when feral put it out as i kind of think its the last port we are getting frome them on linux.
