And you can probably drop distro bitness question from the periodic survey. 32-bit is basically gone.

You can note Ubuntu and Mint taking a dip around the 32-bit dropping story, and Manjaro rising up.

So when is it going to be merged back into dxvk?

Hm, I've been using native ScummVM with compatible GOG games without issues for years. Setup is trivial. Nice nod to Roberta Williams in the name though :)

Quoting: PhiladelphusThen, you have the resources to port to a second OS: MacOS or Linux? Assuming your game works for maybe half of Linux players (using Proton), then the potential market is probably larger porting to Mac.

Personally as a developer I'd give macOS the least priority, due to Apple being extreme lock-in proponents, and due to macOS compatible hardware not being gaming oriented to begin with, especially for anything even remotely demanding. As @Purple Library Guy said above, Apple can be even viewed as gaming hostile, so that's another reason to simply avoid it.

Quoting: Liam DaweIt probably will be whenever Valve starts mentioning it in store pages.

You mean Valve plan to start mentioning Proton compatibility on game pages? That's interesting.

Quoting: Liam DaweSteam Play has so far not come up as a reason why. Edit: Okay I lied, there was this one.

I've seen Krome make such argument, to excuse not releasing Linux version of the Bard's Tale trilogy remaster:

We also have some news regarding The Bard’s Tale Trilogy for Mac gamers. Since launch, we’ve seen that Linux users have been able to play the game with minimal fuss, using methods like Steam’s Proton service. On the other hand, Mac users have not been able to play the game, so we are pleased to announce that we have made the additional investment to develop a Mac version.

They mean to say, they'll release for macOS, but not for Linux. And it's a Unity game with minimal dependencies really. Though probably, this line of thinking isn't common.

Quoting: Faalhaas- It had a bad oneliners

One-liners are actually quite good. When dispatching another cyborg:
­— "I don't think it's covered under warranty."
— "Some assembly required."
— "Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto!"

Finding the disperser:
— "I spray, you pray!"

And so on.

Ads are also hilarious "Addictive soda", "McMonster", "Worst National Bank" and etc.
