Taking A Look At ADOM, Ancient Domains Of Mystery Roguelike

It's pretty fun and might keep me occupied until the new Dwarf Fortress release comes out. I don't like the graphics though, and the music is buggy, so I'm glad you can play in ASCII.

Stronghold 3 Gold Strategy Game Now Confirmed For Linux

This makes me nostalgic for Lords of the Realm on the Amiga..

Humble Bundle PC & Android 10 Unleashed With New Linux Games

Still waiting on Giana Sisters from the last bundle.. :/

Are these all confirmed as being Linux-compatible? Or are there more developers that don't want our money?

Mojang's Card Battle Game Scrolls Has New Hope For Linux

Honestly, this looks like a minigame you'd expect to see stuffed into a bigger game. I don't get all the fuss about it.

Dota2's tournament prize fund has hit nearly 7 million dollars

That's an insane amount of money.

No, I won't be watching. My younger brother probably will though, he loves watching people play games for hours at a time. I'd rather play a game than watch someone else play it.

The term "e-sport" really makes me chuckle though. Are the people competing "e-athletes"? That's an interesting description of someone who sits at a desk for a couple of hours, playing a video game. When I was younger, we just called it a LAN party. ^_^

Maybe I'm bitter because I know that I'd never win! :D

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition Released For SteamOS Linux

Quoting: SilviuGuys, a moderator on the CDPR forum posted the link to this page:

How to contact Tech Support [External Link]

I thought I should pass it along. They have instructions for Linux users on there.
  • the platform you are using (Steam OS or Ubuntu)

Ehhhhh. I hope they're not going to close tickets as WONTFIX if you're not using one of those, even if your problem is a valid one that would affect users on those systems too. :/

OpenXcom, The Open Source Engine For The Original X-COM Stable Release To Come Soon

Quoting: nullzeroSo even if they're really near to version 1.0 it will hardly stop there :)
Indeed. I've been subscribed the github repo for a while now, and instead of calming down, as you would expect in the lead up to a big release, it seems to be accelerating!

Just look at the commits graph from March onwards: https://github.com/SupSuper/OpenXcom/graphs/commit-activity [External Link]

Among The Sleep, A Horror Game From A Toddlers Perspective Releases May 29th For Linux
22 May 2014 at 7:38 pm UTC

I actually have a toddler myself
I read this as "I actually am a toddler myself" at first. :P

The dangers of skimming!

I have the demo of this, Arch users can also install it from the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/among-the-sleep [External Link]

Unfortunately, I have not had time to try it out in much detail, but it looks good from my initial impressions!

Metro 2033 & Metro Last Light Getting Upgrades, Metro 2033 To Release On Linux
22 May 2014 at 6:53 pm UTC Likes: 2

I don't care that I have to buy them again, Metro: Last Light was, for me, the first really good game to port to Linux. I don't really pay attention to what's a AAA game and what isn't, but Metro: Last Light was, to me, a AAA game. And I loved it. Played the main story line through twice, even got the Shadow Ranger achievement, and I'm still in love with it.

I'm especially happy about the 2033 news. I'm part way through reading the novel right now, so I'm very excited to see the game based off of it is coming to Linux!
