I get the decision, I'm not even mad. The native version was janky compared to Proton, and there is one less version for them to maintain etc etc.

Still should have been communicated a bit better before it happened though.

Quoting: Cyba.CowboyWhich Australians love to pole fun at

Hehe, pole indeed.

As much fun as it is to take the piss out of one another, it pains me to admit that NZ has some beautiful scenery. I'm sure Gaben is loving it.

Quoting: udekmp69I have the controversial opinion that Linux native ports should be treated as legacy, and that Proton is what we should be striving for.

Controversial, but I get it. It kind of reminds of "IBM PC-compatible" computers. Except in our case we'd just be "Windows compatible".

Linux users are a joke to them. Remember these days?

But hey, at the end of the day its your money you're free to choose what you want to do with it. Personally, I just use Steam.

Quoting: Mountain ManSingle click to open is the right way as far as I'm concerned. It just makes the most sense when you consider that the interface in every other piece of software you use on a computer only requires single clicks, so why should the desktop be the sole exception?

Because of Windows. I grew up on Windows, and first experienced single click in KDE when trying to select a file. I thought my mouse button was super sensitive or something.

Quoting: Avehicle7887They didn't treat Mac and Linux users nicely on GOG so I'm not sad to see them go.

Good riddance

Why support GOG then? They don't treat Linux users nicely.

Quoting: ThomasI haven't played any of the Money Island games yet because of lack of time. Can the game be enjoyed without playing the previous games?

Teeeechnically yes, but you'd miss a lot of the references. I'd play Monkey Island 1 and 2 anyway, they are classic adventure games!

Quoting: InklingwoodAnd yes, just to confirm - we WILL be doing a Linux version :)

Thanks for that.

It looks good! Giving me some Broken Sword vibes.

Quoting: CatKillerWith all due respect to Ron Gilbert, I'm extremely skeptical of any "we pinky-swear that we'll release a native Linux build Real Soon Now"

Fair enough, but Ron Gilbert was also the one who said:

"Over 1/3 of Thimbleweed Park sales are are on Mac and Linux. You're being silly if your ignoring that."
