Dusseldorf

Düsseldorf. The diacritics are important. If you can't type "ü", use "ue", i.e. Duesseldorf.

A "Dussel" is something else entirely: it's a slightly pejorative / somewhat endearing (depends on the use) term for a confused or disorganized person. :)

In either case, nothing will ever reach the awesomeness and genius that is Settlers II.

I call 3 != "bugger all", which are your actual words and which usually means "nothing", "nada", "zilch" and/or "zip". And these three are just off the top of my head.

It really does remind me of games like Majesty and the original Settlers

Except that no cute little settlers are building those buildings. :(

as we have bugger all games like it on Linux.

Quoting: abelthorneThere was already a functional port of the AGS engine for Linux that was released about one year ago.

Yeah, it was actually done by the AGS community after Chris Jones FLOSS'd the engine: https://github.com/adventuregamestudio/ags [External Link]

I hate it.

I want:
- a way to hide elements on the store front
- a way to opt out of recommendations altogether
- a way to not be recommened certain tags ("Kickstarter" for example is worse than useless)
- the Games->SteamOS+Linux dropdown to not list Linux games "by relevance", whatever that mean, but by release date as before
- it to remember my selection
- a way to hide a certain game everywhere
- a way to hide owned games in the browse games list
- a change color option ;). I don't really like blue that much

And yes, it would be really nice if I could remove all that crap from the frontpage and just move updates from followed games and followed greenlight games there.

Quoting: ApopasAre they going to port the editor as well?

Well, the editor doesn't even work on Mac OS X... So I doubt it. :(

Yeah, even if I had the money (which I don't, at least this month), my "AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+" can't do SSE3 either. :/

Quoting: CheesenessRight now, there are serious performance issues on Linux. These should be sorted out before release though.

Last time I tried it, the game was constantly at 100% CPU on both my cores. Actually had my system shut down for overheating because my fan was dusty again. I don't really feel it's all that necessary for this kind of game. :P

Quoting: Segata Sanshiroconsidering that they already broke-even on the game almost a year ago

Well, and then they put another year of dev-time in it, which also costs money...

Me, I'm more interested in how they plan to license the release of the Lua sources. I kinda wish they'd FLOSS the sources and CC the assets, but I highly doubt that that will happen. :P
