Steam Reaches Over 1,500 Linux Games, It's Not Enough

Quoting: PeciskCan we at least change a tone? Seriously, I understand skepticism, I really do, but this is getting very tiresome. Gaming on OS X sucks...yet people play games on that platform and don't complain much.

Can at least celebrate this achievement a bit?

I would rather not click-bait a random milestone like other websites do, this is meant as a more serious point that it really isn't enough right now. There's no need for me to fanboy every single random milestone we hit, and we need to keep pushing for more ports, and not be complacent with what little we still have right now.

If you want to debate this again, the forum is probably a better place ;)

Quoting: GuestIt is so much Nuclear Throne that I would feel flattered if I was Vlambeer.

Indeed, it uses their own visual style from previous games, and this type of game has been done before NT, it's just the most recent to compare it to.

QuoteThe game left me needing a shot of rum and to sit in the brightest room imaginable, so I would call that a win for the developer.
You guys probably dont realize how much dedication Liam puts to his job <3

With SOMA right around the corner, Liam had better stock up on rum...

Quoting: VissyI've been looking forward to Banished being official on Linux. Already own it, but it's just a great game.

The Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 PRO Rev.2 Is Cheap & Fantastic AMD CPU Cooler

It's probably not the last cooler it will get, but so far it has been a champ and has been keeping temps cooler than the stock one did, so in this case it doesn't really matter since the stock cooler was junk.

I will be checking out a more expensive "silent" cooler on it next time, and I will post my thoughts on that too.

Sadly, the battlestar GOLACTICA lasted all of 11 minutes after jumping into a system with enemy ships, and my weapons guy who joined my game couldn't hold them off. R.I.P GOLACTICA 1!
