Well, that was super effective. I hate it when advertising works on me. I'll be certainly waiting for linux release so that Aspyr get some of my money, but this is probably going to be a day one purchase for me (damn you firaxis).

This is great news. I hope that some of my existing catalogue will be compatible.
Even as an arch user, having mint supported as well as Ubuntu is certainly welcome.

Damn you Liam!
I'm holding you personally responsible for me just buying this game. I've been looking for an alternative to the X games for a while so I won't hold it against you (for now).

I think there's still a few months before beta is over. Not that I will be playing the beta anyway. I backed the game a while back but I want to jump straight in to the finished product when it's released

Quoting: s_dWut.

Does this mean (effectively) all Linux folks get P2 for free?! At least beta quality?

Downloading.

Confused...

I assumed that it was in my library because I had already bought it.

Nice, it's already downloading.
I've already completed the game so can anyone recommend some unmissable mods?

I've been watching that one for a while and it looks promising. I'm trying not to buy too many early access games though. How does it play at the moment? If it's not too unfinished I might give it a closer look.

Already own Dust + Swapper but the others are nice additions to my collection. Especially looking forward to having a go at Antichamber

I completed this game just before I ditched Windows. It's a great game. Nice to see it pop up in my Linux steam list.

The idea that SteamOS finally delivers us all from the blight that is distro fragmentation is a tedious one.
The single best thing that Valve have done with bringing the steam client to Gnu/Linux is to pick a single distro and say that it will offer support on that distribution only (is it Ubuntu 12.04? I forget). By doing this, standards are introduced for any distro maker that wants to appeal to gamers. Introducing standards in this way negates the possibility of distro fragmentation causing problems to gamers.
There is no need to look to the future to wait and see if SteamOS will succeed because the Steam client has already nullified the problem that CD Projekt RED are stating exists.
Anyway, I would be happier if this was an actual announcement that Witcher 3 is definitely coming to Linux as I've loved the previous 2 games but have now cut all dependency on Microsoft software.
