Linux port doesn’t have denuvo (: Don’t ask me how I know.

[–] mox@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Do you know who made the port?

[–] arudesalad@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Aspyr, the ones who made the civ 6 port

[–] mox@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't think so. There's no mention of it on their site.

[–] arudesalad@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can't find it anywhere, I must have mis-remembered

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Maybe they did the port but don't want to claim it because the game sucks ass.

Aren’t they the same company who made the abysmal Star Wars Battlefront remaster?

[–] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

They do more Linux and Mac porting than any other company I know. Back in the day I believe they were actually game developer, but they seem to have become specialized in porting games specifically.

What makes you think that? It's possible that they did it in-house, of course, but there's no precedent for it. No previous Civ had a linux version done in-house.

I meant that it’s an official port, don’t know who didi it, sorry. But it was available on the high seas on the release day.
