    Hey guys.

    I had to return my loaner PC to my roomie today. I only have a linux box atm. I am keen to keep playing Wizardlands if there is no technical issue. But I read there is only beta support for steam-on-linux. Is this true? Is this a problem?

    I suppose I could just rebuy everything on Desura (whatever that is); you guys have certainly earned another 10$ out of me. But then I get no YHTNTEP? That would kind of be a deal breaker.

    The Steam for Linux Beta version should work, but note that the game version has some bugs left in it that the next patch should resolve (but isn't out yet).

    So I looked around and found someone who installed YHTNTEP under linux, no problem. With YHTNTEP from windows, no less. I wonder if my characters are portable :D

    Oh. I didn't realize steam obliged you to use different versions. Anyway, Im just going to drop another 10$. I've racked up 400 hrs on this game, so I'd say I got my money's worth. Thx though.

    It's basically that we released the version for Steam for Linux while our patch was halfway done - it's weird.

    Yeah, I should really update that. It's probably causing Mystery Problems even as we speak.
