Civilization VI Is Shipping For Linux This Week, NVIDIA Support - AMD Works With Issues

[MoonMoon]

I almost bought UT3 because it was coming to Linux really, really soon. The Linux client just missed the Windows launch train.
If you know what I mean.

If you believe it or not is up to you. I have no reason to believe that Aspyr would be lying on this.

Oh, I don't think they're lying. I just wouldn't bet $60 they'll follow through. I'd rather wait first.
NB That's only if you're into multi-player. Civ VI is probably more than enjoyable in single player anyway.

Imagine they releasing Borderlands 2 not in 2014. but today... it would be again not supported on opensource AMD

Couldn't care less about Borderlands. The Linux version of Civ 5 had both AMD support and cross-platform multiplayer. So I bought it.

Of course there are thousands of other games as always... You are also free to ignore claimed support and buy it to make it run, to see what is so bad and improve it as always

Nothing could stop you if demand or desire is so high

Sure. I would at least consider buying if lack of official AMD support was all. But there is no way I can improve its multiplayer to work with Windows...

They clarified on GamingOnLinux that cross-platform multiplayer with Windows will come, it just didn't make it into the release version and will be added afterwards.

This happened with every new Windows patch with Civ5 & CivBE, each time we'd need to wait on the update getting ported to the Linux and Mac clients. Until that happened multiplayer was limited to people that had the same game version
