Thank you for making this. I do hope you can keep this going. I love it!

I am so happy to see Tibia get some of the spotlight 😊

I second this.

Dunno why it seems everyone is misunderstanding your post. It’s a simple question. Why all the grief? I’d be interested to know of Lemmy instances that arent federated and where to find them as well.

I loved this game when I was younger. I tried compiling this like a month ago, couldn’t get it to work. Made me real sad. Though, I don’t know what I’m doing so, probably my fault. The game is legendary though, sound design, gameplay, etc. Awesome stuff.

Put simply, it’s like a translator that knows many of the languages Windows will speak. However, it’s not always fluent in every language it might speak. This is what proton does, it translates system calls into Linux, essentially. It almost always will work, specially with Steam games.

In other cases, it’s game devs making desicisons to disallow use of Linux. Specifically anti cheat. Not all anticheat is disallowed, but game devs could allow it. They just choose not too.

Most games will run just fine on Linux. I’ve switched entirely to Linux and said goodbye to those few online anitcheat games that disallow. Most everything works.

I hear a lot of good talk on Mullvad and ProtonVPN. ProtonVPN allows port forwarding. But yeah, it’s a bit pricey. Good luck in your search.

I can’t imagine switching everyone in my family to Linux. I think it’d be too much to support lol.

Correct. That’s also why it’s important to find providers thatchave passed many independant audits. Like ProtonVPN or Mulvad.

Its simple really. If you have an IP address on a torrent network, contact its owner. The owner of the IP will then be forced to contact the user… But if the owner doesn’t keep logs… Then they don’t know who the user is… And the claim can’t progress any further. But not all VPNs are created equal. Some keep logs. And that’s not good for privacy.

For you not getting DMCA, you may use private trackers only. If not, maybe you got lucky, or you just ignored the emails from your provider or your provider doesn’t follow up with complaints.

If it’s dead by then, it wouldn’t have been a good investment. I’d rather not waste time in a game that won’t live past the hype.

This. No matter how many downvotes you get for it. This all the way.
