This game is well made, runs well and is good fun. This is the way Linux ports should be, even if they take longer.

"The Stanley Parable" for only 2.39€. Unfortunately it crashed on me after the second startup, but after some Google searching, I edited a config file of the game named "video.txt" and put in the native resoltution of my monitor. Since then, it seems to run without problems.

Quoting: omer666Once again, great job Feral! I dared trying the "Ultra" preset and it runs really well on a Core i7 4770S + GTX 666 + 16Gb of RAM. I hope I'll get the same kind of performance with other titles to come...

The GPU of the devil...! :D

Quoting: BeamboomSo, I got to play it a bit more and I just gotta say: Finally. FINALLY a good RPG on Linux. "Good", not as in "good to be an indie" good, not "good for the budget they had" good, but just plain good.
This is the best RPG available for Linux today. There's not really any competition, even. If only the Shadowrun games were like this...

But yeah - I'm ready to vote for this years GOTY.

I personally think Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Pillars of Eternity are better games overall, but to each of their own. Divinity OS bored me halfway through after the story started to turn to shit. =\

Grid on -75% is a no brainer. Was waiting for that to happen!

Happy holidays to you all!

For 2016 I'm very much hoping for a Carmageddon release. They promised it a long time ago, but always seem to be working on Windows updates instead of the other platforms and that kinda disappoints me. The new Doom on SteamOS would be very nice too, but I know there is very little chance for that to materialize.

Happy Holidays!
I don't know how translate this wish for you all into English, so I'll do my best. I hope the meaning is understandable:
"That the best of 2015 would be the worst of 2016".

Quoting: BeamboomI haven't tried this myself, but if you make one of them with a personality "AI" I bet they will reply in the conversations according to the profile you set.

They do. If you set the AI on both characters, the one you're not playing with respond automatically when conversations between them pop up.

QuoteI do find it amusing that with your characters, you control both of them when talking to each other. Can't say I've seen that done before, and it certainly makes it interesting, but also easier to do what you want.

I haven't tried this myself, but if you make one of them with a personality "AI" I bet they will reply in the conversations according to the profile you set.

Also, if you play in coop I bet it makes more sense as well.

This game is *all* about options and I love it!

Ah yes, that does make sense, maybe I should have given my companion some AI heh.
