Hello, and a question

Hi,
I'm currently considering to purchase the lifetime package. There's only one last concern left for me in this:
What are the chances of this game getting Linux support after the release? (I'm aware that the game will be Windows only at the release) Hardware is upgradeable, and in worse case I'll just upgrade sooner then planned. But if it'll not come for my OS, I see little incentive to invest money here.
I've just quit another MMORPG, that I've played for 11 years, and looking for a new one to settle in. AoC have almost everything that I'm looking for, except this one uncertainty. I'm not asking at this stage for a definite yes/no answer, all I want to know is if I can hope to see this game running natively in Linux.

And thanks all
Just a thought, but what about running your PC with a dual boot to play your games that don't support Linux?
Windows 10 is not going anywhere near my PC (despite the option of installing it for free) due to all privacy/telemetry issues it has.
Anyways, it is possible to launch windows application via Wine, but with new software (like this one) there is no chance to tell beforehand whether it'll work well, if at all.
I'm also planning to run the alpha and beta versions via Wine, if I'll buy the package.
But again, with unreleased software it's a gambling if it'll work.
And without proper support from the developers it'll be a gamble with every update/patch.
I haven't bought the game for now - it's usually hard to persuade me to prepursase anything, especially when it's not definite whether it'll work at my system. I don't think I had enough reasoning for making an exception here.
I'll be leaving for now, but will definitely check the game when it'll go public.
Until then... Bye and have fun testing
