Quoting: HadBabitsWow, that's pretty wild. I was about to ask how you got Metro:LL running on a fortune cookie ;)

lol. Nvidia call it "Nvidia Surround" and AMD calls it "Eyefinity". Tons of videos on youtube if you have never seen a setup like that. Here is one of Metro:LL on 3 monitors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QISQS2aV29s

Grabbed some more ultrawide screenshots for everybody! Unfortunately I forgot to backup my KSP save when I migrated from xubuntu to arch last month :'( and I have not built any new rockets yet, so one of the premade default rockets will have to do. I tried to grab a shot of Duke3D running in native eduke32 but for some reason shots taken with xwd are coming out screwed up.

I must admit, I do not quite the see the advantage to that perspective when playing a side-scroller like Trine 2, since ones exploration of the world is limited anyway.

The only "advantage" is maybe catching an orb or something I passed by.. so you are right no real advantage, but also no disadvantage either. Plus, it is one of 2 games (X-plane is the other) for linux that I have played that actually offers the res in the settings AND worked OOTB without me needing to fiddle with cfg's or xorg conf trickery to make it work so I tip my hat to frozenbyte for that. Many games I need to run as a borderless window or just add to openbox's rc.xml and have it undecorate automatically if the engine doesn't have a borderless option because most things must only check the res of the first monitor and not the total virtual res when presenting resolution options.

cool. How does TES:online play in wine? Is performance close to windows? I have not tried the game but have been curious as I liked Skyrim. It's really the upfront cost + monthly thing that is keeping me from it, if it were a free download + monthly I would have paid for a month and tried it already. That and i'm weary of MMO's... I tried WoW years ago and it just wasn't for me. Other than a couple of friends I play Battlefield and Borderlands with I tend to be a lone gamer.

P.S. There is a thread for screenshots of games using wine, this one is for native game shots.

So I have now finally completed Glare:

So is it that bad? I keep seeing it on sales, but since it's release it's looked pretty bland to me.

I would not say that Glare is bad per say; it just tries really hard to bump you off, especially during the later sections and final act. It would be a great title for hard core platform junkies, but it was a bit too punishing for my own more casual tastes.

To put this into perspective, I found the Hard Times DLC for Rochard less frustrating than Glare, and that was designed to test even the most seasoned of players.

Moving on to what I am playing now:


First impressions of Ravensword: Shadowlands are very mixed for me. The creature designs and the graphics in general are fantastic, but every single other element of the game seems intent on overwhelming it in awfulness and mediocrity.

The voice acting and the sound design are quite frankly terrible, the writing is flat and uninspired, a lot of the animations hamper the quality of the models, and the gameplay offers up very few chances for individual agency. The game world itself also seems very static and in general unresponsive. It really does seem more like an Early Access title than a finished product.

Still, the main reason I got it was so that I could have some conception of the type of game that this Skyrim thingy is that the kids are all playing these days, so I guess it works for me from that perspective...

Kind of hooked to Borderlands at the moment. Excellent game so far, not the most perfect port (I get some stuttering on a GTX 970) but all in all pretty good.

Suprised no one mentioned Mount & blade

Yes, this is shameless self-promotion, but I really am playing Lockdown Protocol. Trying to record footage for a release trailer..
