I am saddened and disturbed that a decent company as Paradox, creator of great games (spend more time on them than on all else combined) and BTW offering outstanding support for GNU, should receive so much flak (no doubt demoralizing to staff) because of what basically amounts to a 'gimme gimme' attitude.

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLIt sad that Paradox still forcing DLC politics. Price to high and basic game is uncompleted without many DLC... Just see on fresh steam reviews and read forums, many players just boycotted Paradox and don't want see anymore games with tons paid DLC...

I hope they not force DLC politics to Triumph Studios (Age of Wonders series) - they buy it, because if they broke also my favorite game Ao3 Im also boycott it.

I would be careful with accepting fashionable opinions too quickly.
Without Paradox's DLC policy, Crusader Kings 2's development would have stopped years ago. No, DLCs don't make the game unplayable if you don't buy them because you can choose which version to run... run vanilla if you like and pretend DLCs never came out.

One problem is that there are many developers that work on Mac. If Mac stops being a viable gaming platform (because of no Vulkan support) some of those devs may start working on GNU. That should push everything a little step forward.

Ouch, it looks like they are leaving my favourite (Rome 2) for last! :P

Considering that Dungeon Keeper and Rimworld are two of my favourite games I will definitely keep an eye on this!

Don't forget Linux (the kernel) is pretty good with using RAM for caching.
I had been with 8GB for a while (that pretty much is everything you need nowadays for 99% of games). I decided to upgrade to 16GB in order to enjoy more caching. I have two SSDs working as raid 0 so read performance was already pretty good but nothing beats RAM.

Only 276 hours, I expected much more. But I am going to start another campaign soon... :P

Lovely!

EDIT: I read somewhere two or three years ago that SEGA/CA planned to eventually release all of their games.
