The Joke...

Why do penguins live outside ?
Because they hate being trapped behind windows!

No good at jokes, any who have a good one all!

Microsoft acquires GitHub for some loose change

Guess it's proof everyone has a price.
Way I see it, gives Microsoft access to private repos, they otherwise wouldn't have access to which may have propriety stuff they want.
They wouldn't even have to tell anyone, microsoft has been known to steal many things over years. Microsoft was in the begginning even banned from releasing windows with a web browser years ago... so what did they do made it so the browser was integral for the os to work at the time.
Microsofts business practices have always been dodgy. They will be seeing this as an acquisition of IP, Unlimited access to anything on github at a guess.
Just like outlook years ago, free to use but not private in the slightest.

Well id say a lot of people with "Switchs" will pick it up. also it doesn't just have BR so your not just paying $25 for BR only.

Admittedly, in the past was death on Artifact from valve now looking forward to it, this game looks fun to, if nothing else I can play the other game modes with fewer people cross platform multi.

It's a fun game, you can blow stuff up.
Glad it's getting a port at all.
Shame there are so many sour people around.

Looks fun, probably be flipping a coin as to wether to get it or Battletech. Depends on which drops first -_-.

Could be a good game, but buying the game then buying cards/boosters as well... Hard pass.

Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia confirmed for Linux, from Feral Interactive

Would've figured it is not entirely up to feral, guess it also depends on who approaches them and who feral approaches who accepts with reasonable boundaries what gets ported. If Sega is all port this, then its a fair guess to say feral will take the work, why wouldn't they ?

Would assume Feral does not only make money from sales, so they would need to get something from the person they are porting for to make it worth while.

From what iv'e seen it's not pay to win, you can buy some clothing with minimal stats. That being said you still have to craft them. and you can buy them with the non payed in game currency as well. You can't purchase materials or weps with real money. You can nearly go as far to say that, the pay system is for cosmetics as the boosts are so low, it doesn't matter. The game literally revolves around grinding, def not pay to win.
