Has anyone tried Red Dead 2 with this version?

Lovely game. If only they make the controls more controller friendly..

Game looks good, but I would feel a bit guilty about buying this, instead of giving yet more support to SuperTuxKart.

The animation style gives me Battle Chef vibes. I doubt it's as good, but still.. Might check it out at some point.

Ugh. So they've gone the "frustrating game mechanics to build tension" route.

I actually liked this in Kingdom Come. Sure, it frustrated me from time to time, but it's not like the Saviour Schnaps was hard to get in that game. Also, I pretty much always knew if I'm getting into potentially dangerous situation. So every time I died and was frustrated for not saving within the last 4 hours or so, it was really my own fault.

Quoting: Alm888Oh, come on! They are not wrong. In a financial way of thinking, at least. They are making Windows™ games and you are purchasing their Windows™ games. And everyone is happy. They will not lose you as a customer if they target only Windows™ in their future products. In this light, technical details are of no importance. Let Valve figure them out.

Yes they will, if their new game doesn't work through Proton. Or at the very least, I will not buy the game on day 1, but wait until it works in Proton and buy it on sale. Either way, they are losing money on me due to only targeting Windows. Proving they are wrong in financial way of thinking.

Quoting: elmapulactually steam will count the sale as an linux sale, if you play it on proton

Means nothing. British people have a proverb starting with "If it flies like a duck…" :)
All most developers care about is whether a user purchases their product or not. And in Proton's case, a user purchases their Windows product, so it is for all intents and purposes (s)he is a Windows user. How (s)he will play the game afterwards is of no importance. Yes, some developers are willing to "support" Proton™. While others are more than happy to mock "Linux gamers" on Twitter or in interviews. As I've said, it all comes down to the person responsible. What would happen it Proton™ did not exist? Maybe that kind developer that "supports" it would make a native version instead? Who knows?

Then it is the developers fault for wrongly evaluating market data. Right now, it doesn't matter to the devs because it is such a small percentage that it doesn't make sense financially to care about the 0.05% market which plays their game using Proton. But imagine if it was something like 20%. Would the developer take this into consideration when developing their new game? Dumb developer won't. Smart developer surely will. They would make sure their next game works on Proton as well. Or they might even decide to develop a Linux native version because of this data.

Of course, that is hypothetical scenario, which is far from the current situation. But that doesn't make me responsible for a developer wrongly evaluating me as Windows user, just because I play their game using a compatibility layer, when they clearly have access to this data.

Looks like after 84 years, they finally put the DLC on GOG too. I'll pick it up when I have time.

For me, actions speak louder than words. If they actually open source some of their most used applications, then I might raise an eyebrow, otherwise I'm past the point of caring.
