Aspyr Media are getting a little help from Intel for the long-delayed Linux patch to Civilization VI

I actually reinstalled windows recently to play Civ VI with a friend. That's the thing with crossplay, it's hard to explain to someone that you won't play with them because you're on linux and they are on windows.

Looking forward to crossplay on Civ VI!

Oh, yeah... That's a shame.
I am in a hurry to see what gog will announce about this whole news and I hope they will do something.
I would be kind of surprised if they did anything, I like GoG a lot but they seem to be fairly dismissive of Linux in general.

I tried it with Magic Duels, did not end well.

Downloading Doom now, should be fun.

Edit: I should probably clarify, I tried the newer free to play Magic Duels, 2012 and the other one listed probably work.

Thanks for the build! It's very nice, but a serious gamer should be using a 32 inch monitor and windows.

Quoting: liamdaweUpdated: It has the Unity input bug with keyboard input.
Can you go into more detail / provide a link about this? Does it prevent you from playing with your keyboard?

edit: nevermind, I missed that part of the article and just saw your comment.

Quoting: GuestLaptops are expensive portable toys, no serious gamer uses them. All that I know who had a gaming laptop are using a desktop computer now.
Define serious gamer, I guess? My gaming laptop was actually cheaper than building a gaming pc + monitor due to bitcoin mining destroying the video card market. I think it's great, has handled everything I have thrown at it so far.
