What have you been playing on Linux lately and what do you think?

Well now, it's been quite some time since I asked a direct question to my readers. Here we are once again, as I open up the floor to you.

What have you been playing on Linux lately and what do you think about it?

Personally, I've been testing out Sudden Strike 4 which releases with day-1 Linux support tomorrow. I'm going to be livestreaming a preview of it in about 10 minutes on our Twitch channel. So far, so good and I will have more thorough thoughts on it at release! Remember to keep an eye on the sidebar, as it list the next livestream and this page where you can see our schedule.

I also decided to dive in at the deep end with The Long Dark story mode, but I have to say so far it seems quite disappointing. The story feels a little boring and some of the mechanics have been annoying me quite a lot. I've lost a few campfires that I desperately needed trying to go to the pause menu quickly, but instead it just stops making my campfire — annoying. I will have more thoughts to share when I've finished the first episode, the sandbox mode is great though.

Also, a shout out to the Putt-Putt games, as my son recently completed Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo in an hour, with very little help. He loves it, so if you have kids and they might like short adventure games I highly recommend the series. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: lucifertdarkI'm stuck on almost everything,

Mad Max = gotta win a race to progress the story
Tomb Raider = keep being killed by trees
Shadow of Mordor = stuck trying to kill the second war chief
Xcom 2 = still haven't played the first one yet
Borderlands games = stuck at the beginning on both
Dead Island games = haven't played them enough to get past the tutorials
Company of Heroes 2 = haven't even looked at it yet
Dungeons 2 = still on the tutorial
War for the Overworld = same as Dungeons 2
Overlord games = never even finished them in Windows
Day of the Tentacle = haven't played it yet
Full Throttle = stuck in the same spot as the original
Life is Strange = haven't finished Episode 1 yet
Hitman = YAY actually finished the main storyline
Total War Warhammer = haven't played it enough to get past the tutorial
Victor Vran = Finished the main storyline, still need to buy the DLCs

What with going to the Doctors & Hospital every other week & everything else life seems to be throwing at me I just don't have the time to play anything to get anywhere at the moment.

Do one at a time till you finish it .
And yes I am a hypocrite since i have 50+ games installed as well. :P

Sorry to hear about the doctor thing. Hope you get well soon.
