Grab your swords, as Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is looking like it's getting close to a Linux release at last.
Segata reported on their teasers at the start of September, and even before that we had a tip-off that they were checking interest back in 2012. Now we have these additions to the SteamDB:
Looks like the Linux launch really isn't that far away now, can't wait! Especially as the Steam reviews for it are "Very Positive", it's always great to get decently rated games.
About the game
Besiege castles and raid villages in Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is a first-person slasher with a focus on multi-player. Featuring competitive online combat that seeks to capture the experience of truly being on a medieval battlefield. Inspired from the intensity and epicness of swordfighting movies such as 300, Gladiator and Braveheart, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare aims to bring that experience to the hands of a gamer.
The game is skill-based and controls like an FPS, but instead of guns and grenades, players are given swords, shields, maces, battleaxes and longbows. Set in a fictional, yet gritty and realistic world, players will fight in fast paced online battles besieging castles, raiding medieval villages and fighting for glory in the arena with up to 32 players.
You can check it out on Steam, but seriously don't buy it until they announce the Linux version being out. Make sure you are counted as a Linux purchase.

Mine too. And the lack of time ^^
Guild Wars 2 doesn't run in Wine at all for me. I mean, it runs, lags the X-server to hell and if I manage to stop it, well... can't login or think about playing or anything :(
(But then again, I use the open source drivers in Linux for all my gaming)
But then I don't play it anyway, because I don't boot up windows that often. Actually I only boot it up, when a new chapter of the living story is online and I want to grab that. Kinda ironic xD

... Not to mention it's got a metascore of 82% on gamerankings, that's very solid indeed.
Adding it to my wishlist right away!

I've always eyed this and been tempted to get it when it went on sale - but always saw that it wasn't Linux ready on Steam yet so I held my horses.
Can't wait for it to go on Linux sale! =D
