Among The Sleep Still Unplayable For A Lot Of Linux Users
10 Jul 2014 at 11:59 am UTC

The situation is quite similar to Slender Man's Shadow. They sell the game that actually doesn't work. I hate that kind of disrespect to the customers. Devs of Among The Sleep, XCOM, Slender Man's Shadow have already shown not good examples. How long this list will be?

Quoting: OrkultusAt least i got it in a bundle.
I got it in a bundle too. It cost me less then $1 and I'm okey with that.
Quoting: EKRboiI’m just not an indie gamer though so it's really hard to justify some of these indie titles..
I found the difference between watching trailers and playing the same games many times. And sometimes games really amaze me. Maybe that's why I play a lot of indie games.

It's cool-looking game but nobody plays it. Server is empty every time I want to play.

It looks like that visual style is getting a way too popular. Perfect examples is Lume and the other one is The Last Tinker.

Quoting: edddeduckferalThanks for offering Astro assistance, it's the one thing I have really been impressed by the Linux community is the spirt of trying to help one another. :)
It's lie and everyone perfectly knows that. Linux community is far away from that kind of spirit.

Quoting: AstroMostly I really upset because I'm aware for now on how much unfriendly linux community is. :(
Your very first post on this article said, and I quote, "And they're worst of devs I know about". Talk about unfriendly...
You don't know me. I'm really very friendly person. Honestly.

Quoting: CheesenessAstro seems completely out of line in this thread, but I'm not sure that that justifies some of the more generalised responses.
And I'm still thinking I'm 100% right in my point of view as 32-bit OS user.
No you are not. you can not demand something which was not promised buy developers. You can ask them to support but they are not obliged to do that.
As I said earlier, if you do something - do it from begining to the end properly. XCOM half-ported and it's obvious fact. And I don't demand anything. I only declare this fact. But that's not a subject of our discussion here. Mostly I really upset because I'm aware for now on how much unfriendly linux community is. :(
