You are all such fancy pants with your ultra c00l gamer gear. The path to glorious frags is paved with many broken cheapo mice and modesty!

This is part of the codebase now, it will happen every time April 1st comes around. There's nothing you and me can do about it.

Quoting: tmtvlI should get myself a gaming rig, but it's hard to find Linux machines with a decent AMD GPU. I can't put one together myself, 'cause I always mess up putting the CPU on the motherboard and end up wrecking everything.
Can you get one without a dedicated gpu? Then you'd only need to install the gpu yourself.
Indeed, this is probably among the best ways to go if you need a gaming rig but don't want to build it yourself. After all, a gaming rig is an average CPU with an above-average GPU. Though it's also sometimes possible to have a PC be built for you with the components you desire, some shops offer this as an option and will naturally take a bit of extra on top of component prices but you get to avoid the DIY.

Or you can get someone that builds rigs frequently to do that for you.

Editorial: On paying for Linux games when you already have a Windows version

Obviously this wouldn't be a problem if people just stuck to Linux and Linux games. Shame on those that have bought Windows games! /s

Quoting: LeopardYou're right ,it is not entertaining but that is a fact and one of logical reasons about this lack of some games and cancelled ports or Linux version promised but cancelled Kickstarter games.
I'm serious, it's very entertaining. People like you only look at the percentage in the end and never wonder about the total user base and then you go on massive crusades telling everyone how bad (you think) the situation is.

Also, those failed Kickstarters have existed for a while now and I would attribute those to blatant greed and incompetence rather than current Linux percentage in the hardware survey. And, if you want, you can check our wiki page for ports that have gone MIA or been cancelled. It's a fairly short list.

Meanwhile, in the real life, we are getting more ports than we have ever before and a number of those are major titles. And if we talk about games that are actually being played right now, we have a fair chunk of the top games. Last I checked it was actually a vast majority. At the same time we are seeing impressive improvements to our driver stack and, at least in terms of GOL, we are constantly seeing more traffic and our social media platforms keep growing in terms of member/follower numbers.

Don't think for a second that Linux is in worse shape than it was a year or two ago.
