Quoting: slaapliedjeNow if only Paradox would do the same thing at some point for their grand strategy games.... Though I think I've had to have spent at least 200 bucks on Crusader Kings 2 already...
I feel you bro.

I LOVE Total War. I'm so looking forward to Three Kingdoms.

I've had this since First Access on Itch. Great game! The tbs is pretty solid, the FTL like map and missions are cool, the pixelart is great! I fully recommend this game to anyone that likes squad size tbs or JA like games.

Quoting: GuestSay if a developer REALLY wanted an easy out, and steam play wasn't a thing.. They could just as easily just not update a native linux build if they wanted out, don't ya think?
Which is precisely what the Xenonauts developers did.

Well, it makes me feel uneasy. I surely don't want this to become a trend.

On the other hand, it reminds me of Xenonauts, where the dev coudn't keep the Linux version updated since it was ported by a third party, and they left us Linux users to play a dated version (which locked us out of many MODs and the CE). I mean, I'd rather play the latest version via Proton than be locked to the dated one.

I don't know. I'm all for virtualization, but since there's no big bucks in porting games for Linux, this might discourage developers from supporting linux and just leave us to emulate their games if we want to play them.

I hope once the developer unclutters their schedule they'll make some time to make a proper Linux port.

Anyway, I'll try to keep my money on Linux supported games and just regretted having bought a couple of Windoze only games, that run pretty good on Proton. :S::S::S:

Quoting: cprnWhy does it remind me of Absolver (never got on Linux but that's not the reason)?
Yeah, I really wanted to play that. Shame.
