GOL Asks Again: What Have You Been Playing Recently?

By - | Views: 29,415

There's been a lot of new releases recently with no signs of slowing down, so what have you been investing your time in recently?

Personally I've spent more time than I thought I would have in Civilization V. It hooked me in a little more than I thought it would...just one more turn!

I've also just picked up the XCOM expansion in the sale, and look forward to seeing how poorly my soldiers have trained with their shocking aim some more.

Sadly I would like to invest some more time in Planetary Annihilation smashing moons into a base someone spent an hour building, but wow it's so utterly broken right now it's not worth repeatedly closing it and launching it again to see if the UI decides to show up in-game. I hope they fix this soon. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Broken Sword 3 under wine, because it's about time I get caught up and play Broken Sword 5 (which is native, with one of the main devs developing on Linux! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/revolutionsoftware/broken-sword-the-serpents-curse-adventure/posts/307066 )

Quoting: FergleFerglesonAnd still looking for any decent, *native* linux MMOG - but not holding my breath.

Not sure what your requirements are for "decent", but I'm keeping a close eye on (and backing, for that matter) an Indie MMORPG coming out next year called Stash: No Loot Left Behind

  • turn-based RPG party combat

  • IMM-like/DM-like participation by the devs to host world events, with player participation having real influence on story-lines

  • deep world lore developed over 18 years of their MUD

  • Ultima-Online-inspired MMO community features like crafting and player housing



Stash also doesn't feature:

  • bind on pickup

  • question marks / exclamation points to find quests

  • Groundhog-day world, e.g. big bad bosses that respawn while you're still celebrating victory over them



However as an Indie game, it also doesn't feature AAA-priced graphics, though they do have some charm in my opinion
