Oh god damn it that was the game i was looking forward too the most oh well at least have xcom 1 and 2 (reboots) native that will ahve to do dissapointing but even with proton counting as a linux sale after two weeks nah you promised a linux version and went back on it. I dont have the same problem with buying a bethesda/zenimax game like Ids and arcane games because they are never natively coming to linux so have zero problems buying them and letting it convert to a linux sale.

Quoting: mortigarSo much for wasteland 3.
Be curious to see if their comments on keeping their Kick starter commitments will be honored when it is all said and done.

Wasteland 3 will get made it will now be a fps with multiplayer and battle royale mode with moba dlc because thats the new hotness Ms will end up chasing trends just like Activision blizzard and EA

Quoting: Nevertheless

Quoting: Eike

Quoting: tuubiI don't get all these doomsday attitudes. We probably won't see any more games from these developers on our platform (which certainly makes me sad as a fan), but that's all this means.

With Larian not Porting Divinity 2, that's basically a whole genre (classic CRPGs) gone, no?

With Proton there is just a few games / developers behind walled gardens. The boundaries become more and more not technical.

Well yes and no not having native ports is a big problem because its valve they get white knighted and true they have helped linux because it helps them have an alternative to windows if MS decide to make it difficult to work on windows. Proton is funded by valve and valve does have a patience meter just look at steam machines gone no marketing no mention of them on steam store anymore steam link failed barely mentioned and sold for under a pound last two steam sales. Valve have money and resources but they seem to have a very limited amount of patience.

Quoting: GuestOne thing is not overly clear to me: do they own Neverwinter Nights too ?

Nope, Neverwinter Nights was developed by Bioware / Published by "Atari" and now being done by Beamdog (Enhanced Edition). Obsidian did the 2nd one. Just like they did the 2nd Knights of the Old Repulic.

I feel saddest for Brian Fargo. He started inXile after Interplay went bust so that he could make his own games again. Granted I am sure MS gave him a hefty paycheck, so I don't feel too bad for the guy...

Who do you think negotiated the deal it was Brian Fargo getting paid

Quoting: BotonoskiHmm, I haven't felt particularly starved of FPS games while on Linux, it's a majority of my native library. Admittedly I'm very fond of the classic FPS titles, almost none of my FPS games are newer than 12 year of age and they're nearly all running on source ports.

Ahh your a bit more of fan of the monster closet painkiller type games thats fair you are well catered for on linux its story driven fps games we have 3 of .Bioshock infinite Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light

Quoting: rick01457I'm wishing I hadn't watched Brian Lunduke's most recent 'Linux Sucks' now. I'd have probably taken this news a little better if not. I really really hope that the days of 'Embrace, Extend, Extinguish' are over, but having MS saying they love Linux isn't really enough to put that to bed.
On the bright side, MS money put into these developers could be good for story-rich rpg gaming.

Which you wont get to play because MS wants exclusives, for its console and windows app store.

Already knew about Obsidian that was annouced a few weeks back but damn, i know i am in a minority but this year we have only had 1 triple a game come to linux and had four high profile studios get bought out. Plus a number of promised ports have been cancelled recently its concerning has proton already made devs shrug and say why bother they ll buy it anyway. Yeah i know its a fairly negative mindset but to be honest this is worrying are the triple a linux games coming to an end. I know indie studios still keep supporting linux but that is never going to grow the install base.
