Gaming on Linux is still practically my home page to all intents and purposes. Keep up the fine work man - hugely appreciated!

Just found out about this game today and thought I'd write an article. Searched first and found this post from a few weeks ago. Sheesh... you're a machine, Liam. I missed this because I was recovering from Oktoberfest. To be honest, I'm still recovering!

I always buy these kinds of games, then hate the torment of actually playing them! WHY???

Oh, alright then.

Quoting: kellerkindtSounds reeeeally interesting. The only thing odd about it, is the mention of DX12 instead auf Vulkan. If it comes to linux, I'll most likely buy it :)

Yeah, seems odd to be raving about DX12 in the video, then launching it for Linux. Either the logo is a mistake (I hope not!), or this is video is put together with interviews taken from before development got too far underway.

After 10 hours of Pyre, I went back to roots and starting playing Kingdom Rush again. I made a few short videos showing "perfect" runs. My Youtube playlist here [External Link] if anyone wants to hear my dulcet tones as I nail down each level.

Quoting: Sir_DiealotI do understand that you wish you could play this game right away, but you seem to be overly frustrated by what is likely just a delay. You didn't pre-order or anything, did you? So what did you lose? You can't play the game right at launch, but you will likely be able to play a less buggy version of it a bit later. What's the big deal?

The "frustration" isn't about the game, it's about the abortive PR behind the game. To summarise:

• The game was announced in April.


• Then delayed in September.


• One day later, the devs requested the Linux community to speak up in order to gauge interest(!).


• The following week, they announced Linux was back on.


• Two weeks later, they announced technical difficulties might make take it off the table (again).


• Three days later, it's "officially" put on hold.


• According to the update, yay.. it's back on! Apparently. If you still believe a single word coming out of this studio.

But hey, I didn't (and never) pre-order and I don't buy on vague (or even convincing) promises. The game looks great and the minute it gets a SteamOS logo on their page, I'll almost certainly be buying it. Until then, the white noise of PR is deafening.

I might have to pick this up. Everyone seems to be raving about it!

Quoting: EhvisThe subliminal message from the Steam link is real!

(or in other words, you may want to check what you linked to :D )

Oops, I proofread this and missed that! Sorry all. Now fixed (by someone competent!).

Quoting: CanadianBlueBeerSame for 3 monitors.

The config options for either Ubuntu or Mint, choose display, there you can set the primary monitor, and it will stick.

I'm not sure what you mean here. I run Ubuntu and there's no "choose display" option that I know of. Hence the article!

20 minutes. That's how long I "lasted" playing this game. Hell no.
