Will buy this game as soon as it can be played on my platform.

Edit: Purchased, and I love it!

Look, I'm not going to argue with you. I don't like using Windows, I don't own a copy of Windows, I do all my work on Linux, and literally every single one of my other games runs very nicely on Linux. You like using Windows, or Wine. That's awesome for you; have a fun time. If you're happy to use Wine, go ahead! I'm not stopping you. Just please don't come into a thread I made and explain to me why the OS I've been using and gaming on for years "just isn't a gaming platform".

Furthermore, I'm not whining, I'm asking a company to do something I'd like. Obviously it's their decision as to whether or not to do it; I'm just informing them that I (and Microbit, and Pindaiba, and Nagel) would like a native Linux version.

It isn't a gaming platform though.. That's why I also said Linux is my favorite OS, I'm not bashing it.

If you refuse to run it through wine (I truly do not understand your reasoning for this, it works fine), then sadly you will be waiting for a while, that is why the posters posted what they did.

The "company" you are asking for help, is actually 1 person. One single person works on the entire game. He is still working on some bugs that exist, adding a few new things, and a multiplayer version. While having native Linux support might get him an extra 1% sales (since it's not natively a gaming platform) it really wouldn't be worth his time to do so right now, and if I were him I would make the same choice.

What is your issue running the game through wine anyway? I'm honestly curious.

"It isn't a gaming platform though"

What does that MEAN? It's an operating system. It provides an interface to the hardware: CPU hardware, memory, disks, network interfaces, GPUs. People write software that works with that interface. Some of that software is intended to be used interactively for entertainment. I currently own 88 such pieces of software. The ONLY difference between Linux and any other OS for gaming is that many game companies have decided not to release games for it.

So, again: what do you mean by "natively a game platform"? Is Windows natively a game platform? No. It's a general purpose operating system. PS3/OS is "natively a game platform". XBox One OS is "natively a game platform".

My issue is this: I use Linux for work. I dislike Windows. I would prefer it if I could play more games on Linux. The reason there aren't a lot of games on Linux is marketshare, as you've said. I don't want to be a datapoint on the Windows side, even though I'm actually using Linux, which is what happens when you run Steam in Wine. I also don't want to encourage developers to use single-platform frameworks like XNA when there are cross-platform frameworks like MonoGame, Unity, Allegro, SDL, and SFML, just to name the few I've used.

Ah I see. That's what I was mostly curious about.

I assume you also want devs to lean toward vulkan as opposed to dx12? I understand the idea behind your theory, but I'm not sure holding off on a game that you want to play simply because you don't want your machine to look like a windows client when it logs in is the way to go to accomplish your goal.

That is obviously your decision, and what I was confused about in the conversation. Best of luck to you! Hopefully CA will be able to squeeze out a Linux version for you in the not too distant future.
I would love it if people would use Vulkan.

" I understand the idea behind your theory, but I'm not sure holding off on a game that you want to play simply because you don't want your machine to look like a windows client when it logs in is the way to go to accomplish your goal."

That's kind of the problem: what other way would you suggest? As a consumer, my ONLY power is "voting with my wallet".
I would suggest adding your support for Linux to the following thread - http://steamcommunity.com/app/413150/discussions/0/451852225140846546/#p1 - It has over 19 pages / 275+ messages, most of them supportive of a Linux client for Stardew Valley.

There is a very good chance of a Linux port, as in that very thread a veteran developer who has A) ported many games in the past and B) developed an open source XNA implementation, FNA - has already stated his interest in the project.

You realize that's exactly why I don't want to run it in Wine, right? It will count toward the Windows market share in Steam Analytics.

What difference does it make?

Gaming on Linux is a long way from replacing Windows, assuming it ever does.

This is the main reason why there are gamers that use Linux... its the edgy emo kid in school that always wanted to be different and rage against the machine.

I use Linux because I am a software developer. All my software runs, in the end, on Linux; therefor, it is far easier to develop on Linux as well. In addition, more and better tooling for C, C++, Javascrip, and Elm development is available on Unix-likes. The only thing I would ever use a Windows installation for is gaming. There are so few games that are Windows-only that I really want to play, that I'd rather forego them than have to deal with dual booting, or having multiple computers. Please refrain from insulting people just because you disagree with them.

But there's more to it than that... you just said you don't want to use wine... I use Linux for work too and no bloody way I'd use it for anything but work, its the most unituitive platform I've ever had the pleasure of using... And I started way back with MS-DOS and windows 3.1

Yes. If you read back a few posts, you'll see I explained why.

And, I respectfully disagree with you: I find Linux (specifically Ubuntu with XFCE desktop) to be highly intuitive. Again, the fact that you personally dislike a platform is grounds only for you not to use it, not for the developer not to release for it.

Linux isn't a gaming platform, plain and simple. Stop whining about getting linux specific version and just play the game, since you already have the ability to do so.

Linux is also my favorite OS, but people like you are extremely irritating.

In what way is asking for a native port irritating?

I find people assuming WINE is the solution to gaming on *nix much more irritating. Relying on a translation layer in order to play new games is counterintuitive, and adds another whole layer for bugs / issues to creep in on. Supporting modern and ongoing game development is out of the scope of the WINE project.
Linux port confirmed, I will be buying as soon as it comes out. Thanks, ConcernedApe! http://stardewvalley.net/post-launch-progress-update-version-1-1-and-more/
