They are making a good choice of games.

Quoting: jdubDD works fine for me

I think the Steam version is not affected by the second bug, it can be fixed but why do we have to find the solution and patch the game by ourselves? Can you imagine anything similar in the windows port?

Maybe I'm also be affected by the frequent crashes. I am using "maybe" because I stopped playing after the second crash.

Quoting: .AFAIK he has never been involved in anything good. Always shipping unfinished crap that never gets fixed. He starts to work on a million projects at the same time and ends up with a million broken ports.

Relax, it's time to stop trying to play Dungeon Defenders.

StepMania looks awesome in the videos, but I suppose their user base is small due to the need of additional hardware. I'll vote for Freeciv because it's my most played game in the list by far.

Quoting: pbMakes me wonder why people vote for some totally mediocre games while DROD still struggles to get to the top 100. Must be the "greenlight bundles". :-(

I must admit I have ignored the DROD games because of the first impression (graphics mainly). I didn't know I can try the first one for free, I promise I will give it a chance.

BTW. We should write a list with mostly unknown games that are awesome.

If a game is using wine or dosbox, I would prefer this information to be available. If all the stores I buy games from started publishing wine ports without warning, I would panic. However, as long as the use of these technologies is restricted to old games in the GOG store, I will consider it as a nice improvement.

That said, today I wouldn't pay for windows or msdos software. While I love wine an dosbox, I had some bad experiences with incompatible software. However, if GOG proves they can hide the compatibility layers and provide a trouble-free experience with their ports, I will reconsider my position.

Dammit! I wasn't convinced by the video so I tried the demo and now I need this game. Those Ukrainians have created a solid, polished and fun gameplay, I'll be tracking them.

Quoting: GuestI thought we had learned our lesson when it comes to promises of a Linux port? Don't buy it until it's out.

I fully agree. Even a confirmation that the game actually works is becoming necessary lately.
