A look at some interesting games and bundles on sale for Linux gamers

By - | Views: 13,777

Here's your (almost) weekly look at some interesting games and bundles that are currently on sale that have an interesting choice for Linux gamers.

Firstly, Fanatical are offering a reasonably good deal with their new Origins Bundle which includes Punch Club, River City Ransom: Underground, Overfall, Comedy Night, STARWHAL and Gloom which all have Linux support. A favourite of mine from that is Overfall, which is well worth picking up.

Steam also has some great deals like:

Humble also have some nice deals:

  • Humble Monthly has HITMAN, 7 Days to Die and Hollow Knight which you would be mad to miss if you don't own them
  • The Humble Discovery Pack has 4 days left with War for the Overworld +  DLC: Heart of Gold,  Kentucky Route Zero season pass edition and Tricky Towers.
  • Shadwen - 75% off
  • Tabletop Simulator, which is actually great fun! - 50% off

Picked up anything good lately? Do let us know in the comments. We're always on the look-out for a good deal and may add more later if the deal is good enough.

Eagerly waiting for Steam Winter Sales. That would be a Proton focused sale season for me.

Just got Hitman GOTY edition for 75% off. The Humble Monthly offer looks interesting, but it's much more expensive than my regional discounted price on Steam.

I just bought the bundle to punish myself...

Good news, RiME now just works with proton, only the sound sometimes is a bit choppy, but can be fixed by setting xaudio2_7 to native,builtin

Why not expand future sales pages to include officially whitelisted Proton games?

It's something I have been thinking on, holding off on it for a while until things calm down and to see how Valve will represent it on store pages.

Earlier this month, I took advantage of the humble-bundle sale on Hitman. 10 hours in, I hit an impassable bug with Steam/Hitman. I can't launch the game now because it infinitely states "(corrupt update files) steamapps\downloading\236870\Runtime\chunk0.rpkg" or "(corrupt update files) steamapps\downloading\236870\Runtime\dlc1.rpkg"

I have switched download regions, wiped the entire steamapps folder, deleted the app manifest, re-downloaded the whole 44 GB several times and even added a new steam library on a separate drive. Still the same error. Anyone else run into this? Not to much about it online, except for a few odd posts from other Linux users. Most have the same story. Works for many hours, then update loop. :(
