Yeah, don’t think I will continue the conversation.

What MTX are you talking about?


Few weeks ago I have noticed that my Presonus account is offering me to download Studio One Pro 7, in deb or flatpak format. I use Linux desktop for everything except audio work (still use Windows machine for that) so when I checked my Presonus account from Linux box I was quite shocked.
Sadly, attempt to upload the image from the phone (using Boost app) doesn’t work so I can’t upload and can’t be bothered to upload elsewhere then share URL, etc.
I couldn’t get bothered to try installing it earlier since I don’t want to run S1 on this box.
But just for the sake of it, I have now tried installing flatpak file and it completed.
I don’t use flatpak much but trying to do…
flatpak run com.presonus.studioapp7
… failed with “Failed to connect to Wayland display”.
I spent 0 seconds on reading about S1 Pro for Linux and have no intention to bother with it further but if you do use S1 on Windows you might have Linux download available as well. Give it a try if you are interested.
What exactly it requires to run, I have no idea.
But it is really surprising development.
Edit: hah, after i removed that flatpak i just installed, a notification popped up saying “Studio One is a Wayland application and won’t run in X11 session.”
We are certainly not playing the same game, then. All good.
Edit: so, finally back home and started the game. Main screen, after game loads has 0 references to MTX. Zero. Only and only when you go to STORE tab do you get to see anything. Or if you click on RAIDER TOKENS section in the top right. Nothing else, anywhere.
So while I love shitting on game devs, I prefer to do it for a good reason, and not based on lies. You might not like the prices and that’s perfectly ok, noone likes them.
But that does not equal “shoving MTX in your face”.
