Delta Force devs say Desktop Linux support is 'not part of our agenda in the future'

I tend to just blacklist the dev or publisher page on Steam when I see this kind of attitude. No hard feelings, it's just a better use of my time not to see them in future.

But I wonder if the Devs/Publishers realise that the door is getting closed so permanently. It would be interesting if Valve shared numbers with Devs/Publishers on how many accounts have them blocked.

Ha, can you imagine ANY other store (Windows, Sony, Nintendo, whatever) that would allow you to sell your games on it, accessing its insane potential selling power... and yet NOT support that store owners own console!?

I know Valve love playing being the good guy, but sometimes I just want them to put their foot down, y'know?

This looks like 7 Days 2 Die on a train! Love it - definite wishlist. Gutted it's 8 months to early access though...

Honestly, once the new NexusMods tool supports Skyrim, I'll be straight onto my third (or is it fourth) play through and I'll be a happy boy.

It will probably go live on June 28th, for no particular reason.

I'll pass on this. Not because of the Microsoft boycott for Palestine that's filling up my Bluesky feeds, but simply because Oblivion was the weakest Elder Scrolls I've played.

There's that beautiful reveal moment when you exit the sewers, then a shine of excitement as you uncover the gameplay mechanics. Then the gates start opening and the entire gameplay loop goes on repeat.

You could argue that Skyrim swapped gates for dragons. And that's kind of true. But fighting a dragon is quick and exciting. Meanwhile, slogging through YAOG (yet another oblivion gate) became tedious after the first or second. There's like 25 of these things, isn't there? Maybe it just felt like there was 25 of them.

Also UE5. Also, the price, goddam. Also, no noods.

I only got a couple of hours in last time I gave this a shot, probably about 2 years ago. Time to dust off my trusty HEV and give it another go, I reckon!

You're accusing me of lying now? You've seen plenty of evidence in this thread. You're just obstinately ignoring it.

So I can assume you did look for the configuration & did not find it?
I don't use Ubuntu or snaps. Even if I did, I wouldn't respond to the tone of your replies.

SOURCE!? he cried, into the void, ignoring or shooting down supportive comments.

Nah. It's sunny outside.

@poiuz: the tone of your reply is super-depressing, ngl. You contradict everything without saying anything positive, or offering solutions (not that I can even see a problem that needs a solution, tbh).

I don't have room in my life for that. I'll leave you to chat with anyone else who wants to argue what a store is.
