Hi devs,

how can I start this game on Ubuntu/Xubuntu ? Every other game runs pretty good on my machine only Saviors rufuses to start. How can this issue be solved?

Thanks & Regards

I have the same problem on Ubuntu 16.04. Looks like this game uses Wine or some type of wraper for Microsoft DLL's. The game does not launch due to missing a DLL fine. Here is the log file showing the launch error. I'm sure the fix is simple, but at the moment the game is not playable. https://paste.kde.org/pqrvbc9ao

lol wtf I bought this game in & for Linux and now the support was dropped after the fact :O

It worked great before, what the crap has happened here ?.?

beta 16 doesn't run either 100% cpu load on one core just like the reg version.

& experimental version not running as well need to be killed as all versions dont react anymore.

Why is the game not working ? Is this because of Kernel updates or what ever or because of new patches dropping Linux support ?

This is pretty lame if people bought this game from an external key seller, basicly the devs are robbing peoples cash and keeping it in their pockets.

I bought this game on Steam so I'm going to demand a refund, even though I bought the game a long time ago.

Sharpened Edge Studios , effectively has pressed the kill button for people on Linux on this game, something that is illegal under EU law, as my digital items are/where remotely devalued, while the game still exists and is sold for other platforms.

I paid for Linux support and Sharpened Edge Studios & Valve want to keep the money in their pockets, while not delivering the digital items, this is outright theft and a scam and I will report this criminal act to the police and the dutch consumer protection agency, I will block all games from Sharpened Edge Studios, and post about this theft and scam on multiple platforms.

This sucks, they should've just not released a Linux binary at all, Proton is a lot better than an old broken version of WINE and an install.sh file that doesn't even run.
