A few times in your life, you have a life changing experience. Maybe it’s getting married, having your first child, or finishing your college degree. One of our readers just had a life changing experience, and it was because of a video game.
Valve have made some steps towards trying to improve their reviews system, so let's take a look. It should cut out people gaming the system, but it's not great news for developers in reality.
You may or may not remember that I wrote about Kingdom Come: Deliverance back in March. The developers said it wasn't technically possible, now it seems months later they still have no idea.
You might remember a heated topic recently that the GOG version of 'Armello' was renamed to 'Armello DRM-Free Edition' and it won't be getting the DLC. It seems GOG are offering refunds now.
I'm quite a fan of the indie colony building sim Maia, it sweet has retro sci-fi future graphics and it's starting to come together little by little. It has taken a long time to get here, so Simon has a blog post explaining what's going on.
DLC is always a bit of a hot topic for some, now even more so since ARK: Survival Evolved a game that has sold very well now has it's own paid DLC even though the game isn't finished.
With all the hoo-ha about The Witcher 3 and the replies GOG have given (first being it was never planned, second being they don't know), I finally have an answer from the actual developer of The Witcher 3.
It seems GOG support got it completely wrong on The Witcher 3 for Linux. A different person inside GOG has said they have no idea why a previous staff member said TW3 was never planned.
Here is some good news to offset the two recent bad news articles. According to the latest Steam Hardware Survey for August 2016 Linux market-share on Steam has grown two months in a row.
Well I didn't see this coming at all, I got told in our IRC moments ago that In Case of Emergency, Release Raptor has been cancelled and refunds are being offered.
Rocket League is way overdue, we all know that, but honestly I am fully expecting it to arrive with the patch due in September named the 'Rumble Update'.
This is quite sad, it seems we have been left wondering for a while (years) about Subnautica, but a developer has now confirmed a Linux version is not being worked on.
Valve was officially formed on August 24th 1996, so today Valve turns 20 years old. I had no idea Valve was this old! Here's a rather quick look at what they have done for us.
Slime Rancher is a damn cute game, it's high on my list to play hours of when it has some fleshed out content to it. It has hit over 300K sales so I caught up with the developer on the Linux side of it.
Not strictly gaming related, but we do cover other important or interesting things here and there. According to netmarketshare for three months straight Linux marketshare has gone up.
