Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition For Linux Is In Testing
19 Sep 2014 at 7:21 pm UTC

I bought BG:EE back in 2013 on the promise of Linux port "soon" and I'm still waiting. Didn't do the same mistake with BG2:EE, but I'll buy it as soon as the penguin icon pops up, same for IWD:EE and any other D&D remakes they're planning.

Lots of discounts don't make it easy to wait for the Linux version before buying. But I'm trying to contain myself this time. ;-)

I think the delay has to do with Ubuntu 14.10 releasing in October and the new Civ will have to be thoroughly tested on this new release.

Blinken graphics are great for trailers and all, but when it comes to actual gameplay, I wonder if there will be option to switch to the strategic view like in Civilization V.

Blobwars: Metal Blob Solid is great, be sure to play it if you haven't already. The 3D sequel didn't appeal to me, though.

GOG Has More Linux Games Added To Their Collection

Quoting: GuestThe demo of Blocks that Matter completely breaks my system when I run it and I have to reboot, and the full version in Steam doesn’t start at all.

Kingdom Rush, on the other hand, is great!
Blocks that Matter (full version) used to work ok for me, then all of a sudden I got a total freeze that forced me to reboot my computer (a really rare case these days) After that I edited the config file to run the game in the window - so in the case it did it again, I would be able to just kill it with ctrl+alt+esc (KDE). But it worked fine afterwards.

I bought it back in October on the promise of Linux version "coming soon", so they can be sure I won't be buying it again, I'd rather wait for a GOG version in that case.
