It’s a tough time to be an indie developer, with Steam’s new sale event causing wishlist deletions

Took one look at the Grand Prix thing and was instantly over it. :|
Worst Steam sale 'event game' thingamajig yet IMHO. Will not bother with it at all.

I made a positive review on Steam because of course I did. :D

The perils of crowdfunding for Linux games: Eco edition

Again with the Carmageddon! *Mah heart* :'(

The optimism back in 2012 is a bittersweet reminder about the perils of crowdfunding. 7 years later and not much has changed, really...

The Witcher 3 was shown in their E3 Nintendo Direct thing so it appears to be true. Also getting Doom Eternal. They are pushing that little thing for all its got! ^_^

Speculation: Dying Light 2 may come to Linux after all
10 Jun 2019 at 4:22 pm UTC

Research? Hell, I lived it. :wink:
I had at least one AMD card back when it didn't run at all on Linux/Mesa, despite people seeing some success with GL shader version overrides and whatnot. Being forced to use Nvidia wasn't exactly an ideal solution, but it was at least a solution until the actual problem was identified and resolved.
IIRC; for a long time on the Store page, Techland even said that AMD cards were not supported. They are now, obviously.

I'll remain passionate about Dying Light, thank you very much.

(Not even going to respond to that pathetic 'personal attacks' accusation). :huh:

CARRION, the crazy reverse-horror game with you as an amorphous creature has a new E3 trailer

Oh hell yeah! Gimme! But why does this look so familiar...

Aha, this is what I said last time we heard something about the game! (March 2018)
Quoting: dpanterLooks very promising, here's hoping for good control schemes.
Happily reminded me of The Dweller.

Lack of support? What the flipping hell are you people on about...
Drugs are bad, m'kay?

Are you talking about the same Techland that STILL releases content and patches for Dying Light, almost 4,5 years after release? Still going with the weekly bonus dockets, still having events like the current Double Exp during E3, still active in the Steam forums, the Discord, the subReddit. No?

Every game can have problems, sorry if your experience was bad. I have played with lots of people over the years, both when using the Linux version and later with Proton. It has been nearly flawless. AMD GPU users have had a rough time with DL native and that's due to a bad port. Before I repeat myself too much, I'll link my own comment here.

And yes, I'm hella stoked for Dying Light 2! <3
(Bloody teaser trailer got my blood pumping)

Vampire: The Masquerade - Coteries of New York announced with Linux support

I have a feeling they are about to spill the beans during E3.
