A blended view of the library could be nice - or at least a search across the whole library.

It seems odd to me that they would have a time-limited license, since the vast majority of the work happens up front, but I suppose they can negotiate lower costs that way, and renegotiate/cancel in the future based on recent revenue.

Quoting: AdrianodlWMA = Windows Media Audio, so I wouldn't count on this helping with video playback (that would be WMV).Beginnings of a WMA decoder.With this all games that uses Media Player to run a video playback in the game could run without tweaks?

Quoting: GuestNow I assume that if it's not a day 1 native game it's never coming.Often true, but not always; some examples are Divinity: Original Sin, Moebius, and most recently Encased. The long delay on the first two was definitely frustrating, but they *did* follow through in the end. Still hoping that Kapia follows through...

Quoting: CyrilFor Backbone, did you added a key of the game in your account already?Yes, but that's hardly relevant; it was added in anticipation of the promised Linux support - they broke that contract, not me. If they really care, I believe they can invalidate the key.

I requested a refund of my Kickstarter pledge yesterday; let's see how long it takes for them to follow through. Another one that seems likely to be breaking their promise is "Edge of Eternity" - when asked about the promised Linux version, they reply "you can play it on Linux with Proton" - not exactly what we backed for the Kickstarter project, is it?

The Steam reviews for this game aren't exactly inspiring... maybe if they fix the issues Liam reported, he will do a followup on whether it's looking better.
