Bioware Releases Neverwinter Nights Linux Client Beta
valedaemon writes "Well, I thought that the world would end before this day dawned, but Bioware has finally made good on its promise of a Linux client for Neverwinter Nights. You still need a Windows installation in order to copy the game data, but the good news is that the downloadable is only 4.4 MB. I could write more, but why? Go play!"
Sounds like a great reason to install Linux! :)
anyways, this removes my final dependance on windows. tonight i shall remove MS OS's from my household. w00t.
I'm just waiting for OO to come out with an Aqua edition for my iBook and then no more MS.
Hey, maybe by that time NWN Mac will be out
That's the sound of a million geeks blowing their load over this "news".
Fuck Slashdot, and fuck Amerikkka!
Now we know the definition of "shortly"
"shortly after" - 6 months.
If you don't pay proper respect and get on your knees and worship our red-white-and-blue standard, we'll nuke your whole fuking country. It'll be one big glass parking lot. And then we'll setup gas stations right on top of your oil wells so our tanks can refuel when we go attack the chinese!
u != you
You God damned cockmongering piece of shit. I hope Dubya comes to your house and personally skullfucks you until his tiny cock (war is compensation) tears your brain's frontal lobe into many pieces of pink flesh.
You know he'd get off.
We JEWS are God's Chosen People. You non-Jews are stupid stinking scum. You shall be brought low, and will beg us to be our slaves. It says so in the holy Torah.
From Jerusalem we shall rule you all. We have all your retarded religious leaders eating from our hands!
The Tribe of Judah shall assume the Throne of the Earth, and you shall grovel at our feet, you ignorant, godless worms!
In the coming New World Order,
a Liberal Jew will be an oxymoron.
Liberals are ALWAYS crucified!
All those pretending to be Liberal Jews shall cast off their no longer needed cloaks, because the Tribe of Judah's Grand Design will be completed.
You weak-minded, misty-eyed Christian FOOLS! Your slavery was one of the first steps.
We have already conquered you!
They should also release the source as GPL or this whole thing is meaningless.
Fuck you for tricking me into pre purchasing NWN a year ago because you said it would support Linux then.
Fuck you for using the linux community (including me) to host servers for you because you were planning on "supporting linux".
Fuck you for forcing me to boot to windows to play your buggy beyond belief game.
Fuck you for forcing me to leave a "play" pirate proofing cd key in the drive while playing, which caused me all sorts of problems because I was lucky enough to have one of the many types of cdroms that your pirate proofing cd wouldn't work with. I had to download the pirated executeable off the net just to play my legit game, then I was crippled to do anything with legitimate installations.
Fuck you for putting the cd key on the inside of the manual which I threw away while cleaning my room 6 months ago. At least I can't install the game again if I ever feel like being punished for being a customer of yours again.
I'm sure this will be modded as a troll, but it's the truth. While the game had a ton of strong points, they make the end user jump so many hurdles and lies to use it it's just not worth ever dealing with them again.
P.S. Oh yea, fuck you for releasing a game with a bug that wouldn't let me get past level one with my character without waiting weeks for a patch.
RMS is right, closed source sucks.
