That's nice to see. Didn't both companies involved just throw up their arms and say "not our problem" just a couple of months ago? Would be nice to see which company is actually showing some integrity and pushing out these updates.

Civilization VI for Linux is no longer certain, only a possibility

If they decide it isn't viable, I hope they elaborate on _why_ this is the case. Nothing sucks more than a blunt "Won't port, kthx."

Of course, I'd still prefer that they do port it. My wallet is ready.

Stardew Valley 1.1 beta now available, you can get divorced, new maps, new crops and more

The divorce stuff gets seriously dark, if what I'm reading about the witch's hut is true. No spoilers here, but you can read up on it here: http://stardewvalleywiki.com/Marriage#Divorce

I started a new save in the hill farm. :D

hackmud, a cyberpunk themed text-based hacking simulator is now out with Linux support

Hah, thanks. I wasn't expecting anything quite so well thought out. I was thinking something along the lines of each letter spoken individually (but retaining case, not like an initialism).

Quoting: DrMcCoyNitpick: it's not "h a c k m u d", but "hackmud".

The former is just the normal ASCII latin characters with spaces inbetween. This is not it.

The latter is CJK "fullwidth" forms of the latin characters, i.e. each character takes up the space a CJK character would use. In fixed-width fonts, that would be the space of two usual "halfwidth" characters.

But how do you pronounce it? :O

Stardew Valley 1.1 will add a bunch of new maps and content to go with them

I always found the fishing to be fine. Some fish escape, even at higher levels (when your catch bar is bigger), but the challenge makes it more fun.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the update. I don't give a damn about Shane, but it'll be nice to see Emily's character get fleshed out a bit. The new farm maps are a cool idea too. I've heard a rumour that we'll actually be able to brew mead in the 1.1 update too! Woo!

EDIT: btw, if you're rapidly clicking during the fishing minigame, then you're doing it wrong. Hold the left mouse button to raise the catch bar, release to let it lower.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is officially coming to SteamOS & Linux, port by Feral Interactive

Quoting: WorMzyAwesome news! I've been replaying the previous game in Crossover (works perfectly, btw) to rekindle my interest in the series. Gonna be looking forward to this!
When I tried to play it on Crossover 15 I got a black screen, how did you proceed?
I probably should've clarified that you need to disable DX11 in the options (Steam has a separate option to launch the config manager, if you didn't install through steam then you might need to manually edit an ini somewhere).

Remember the Smach Z handheld? LowSpecGamer took a look and others at Gamescom

It looks like the Sega Game Gear, hopefully it doesn't have the same battery problem that did!

From the second video it looks like they brought Windows-based devices with them to Gamescon, hopefully they also brought SteamOS-based ones too so people could see how well that worked. I do like that the price for the SteamOS variant is much lower than the Windows one.

CD PROJEKT RED replied to me about The Witcher 3 and Linux, flat-out denying to answer any questions

Fuck 'em. If they want to play silly buggers with us, then they can say goodbye to any money they would've otherwise gotten from me.
