    Larian is a good company overall but this is plain stupid

    And why do we only get this 2years after the game released ? It’s one of the most played games on deck !

      Because they’re done with the game and have moved onto their next thing, they explain this is literally one dudes passion project. That’s why there’s no Linux support, it’s one dude who wanted to play the game on his deck better. Sucks, but that’s the way it is.

      the steam deck didn’t exist when the game was in development. industry is slow to adopt without strong monetary incentive. the fact that a large studio is acknowledging the deck as a viable option means we should start seeing optimizations like this in the wider industry.

      Maybe because everyone keeps repeating the lie that Proton is the perfect Linux game platform.

        I don’t think anyone is claiming that Proton is perfect, but it certainly beats not being able to play most new-ish games. Which was the situation on Linux prior to Proton.
