Quoting: Chronarius

Quoting: GuestThey have a discount on Helium Rain too. ^_^

It is 50% off on Steam for the next 20 hours :)

But what I don't understand. What makes Helium Rain so special?
If I have Avorion, Everspace, Pulsar - Lost Colony, Celestial Command and others already.

Why Helium Rain?

Helium rain is a mix between a fly SIM and a resource/ fleet management game. The game looks nice and the Newtonian flight is satisfying ones you used to it, but it makes the flight in the combat a bit slow with a heaviness sensation. From what I saw from avorion and everspace, it's not the same type of game.

Quoting: GuestI dunno but that ugh.. poster literally says "France fuck yeah !" and my guess is it is parodic.

Yes it's parodic, to like the American version.

Quoting: ZapaSadly, I don't have a screen to test it/try it on so I have no idea. I can fake such an aspect ratio and try my best to get it to be compatible.

Thanks for the answer, would be top-notch if it works but a can totally understand if it doesn't. I'm in the hype train even in 16:9.

Discovered the game in the last week interview and wishlisted it immediately, it looks nice and fun, and it's made on Linux.
I'm probably going to buy these one day one, full tux, immediate bucks :D.
Do we know something about 21:9 aspect ratio support ?

Quoting: linuxcityas for people not coming to linux alot of that has to do with people just not wanting to format or change anything they have.they just don't want to come over.i have come across alot of people like that.

I don't think that it will attract a lot of new user coming, I see it more like a way to make people, who dualboot or who don't use Linux on their gaming pc, be full time Linux user.

About the test results, hellblade being in the humble monthly, and my friend Pedro, make me want to spend some money on them. If only I had more time to play or not so many games to finish.

Hello everyone, I just read most of the comments and even if I get the no tux no bucks mantra and the proton hurts Linux market share, in my opinion they are two things that counterbalance that.

First, as a Linux user, who has maybe a tux as profile pic or a reference to Linux in your steam name when you play a Windows only game through proton, you will eventually be noticed by someone in your friends list, or other players that are tech enthusiasts or dualbooter giving proton a little more visibility outside the Linux gaming community.

Secondly, proton is probably the best way for new users to stay with Linux. How many people will dualboot or just go back to windows because of one coop game a friend or a family member want them to play?

I would not buy full price proton game myself, and I would not promote Linux for someone who is only interested in AAA, that will force him to go through proton for all his game. But it is still a handy tool even if it doesn't promote Linux as we want to.
