Quoting: DamonLinuxPLWe can also buy DL on GamesRepublic.74% off... I bought it there a few days ago. It says "PC/Mac" but it's a Steam key, and there's no third party publisher in this case losing out.

Quoting: g000hWolcen: Lords of Mayhem - when the Linux port comes outThey have been dodging all questions about Linux, although it's right in the title of their Kickstarter project. :(

$20 includes "APEX"; the Arma 3 bundle with that goes for $70 on Steam:

I'm not sure this is my kind of game, but I allocated the largest percentage of the funds to GOL, so that makes it worthwhile. ;)

Quoting: noxSo, can you really recommend gaming on wayland with nvidia...?Can't vouch for it personally; like others, I figured I would stick with X11 in the short term for less gaming hassle. :whistle:

Quoting: noxNvidia however doesn't want to support xwaylandI think it's more accurate to say upstream developers didn't want to support an additional code path (EGLStreams) when they had already settled on GBM. However, latest Xorg does have EGLStreams support for XWayland included.

Quoting: noxso you'd have to only play games that only use wayland which is rare atm.Any games using SDL have native Wayland support.

Quoting: tailDASHeFFedora 28 will feature maintained repos by the Fedora Project for Nvidia proprietary drives and Steam!Interesting; there have been excellent third party repos for quite some time, but semi-official ones make it even easier.
