ARK: Survival Evolved Released For Linux, Here's An Early Look & Thoughts
1 Jul 2015 at 10:05 pm UTC

Good try. But it is completely unplayable to me, low settings aren't ugly, they are horrendous, at the point Doom 1 looks better. I can play Dying Light at 1080p on ~25fps, and this one at 10 fps MAX lol.

What Happens When You Request A Refund On Steam?
15 Jun 2015 at 1:25 am UTC

I just asked a refund for Evoland. The game ask me about libflashplayer.so from Google Chrome and wouldn't start. WTF! What if I don't have (or don't want to install) Google Chrome? NO serious game should depend (or be made) on Flash at all. It seems nice game, but... =/

Good. Lets hope the tons of Early Access Unity based games upgrade to this new release. o_O

Voxelnauts, A Sandbox MMO Built On Linux & Needing Help On Kickstarter

Ah man, it is almost a perfect project to back, but free2play with micro-transactions, really? I hate this thing, because from this to pay2win is a thin line, I am leaning to back this, but this is something that bother me.

Dying Light Linux Performance Patch & New DLC Released

As I said before, the lip sync is buggy again. It was ok before the patch, now none of the NPC move the lips while talking. This plus the shadow flickering are the most annoying bugs at moment (besides performance) what a pity =/

Dying Light Linux Performance Patch & New DLC Released

Well, this patch has zero improvement to me. I still got the same crap 15-20 fps with everything on low at 1080p, chganging to 720p makes little to no difference, maybe 2fps gain and thats it. I was in hope it could make at least ~30fps, but to achieve this I still need to remove the sun shadows, which makes impossible to play coop =(

Edit: And keeps crashing when Alt+Tab =/

Edit 2: close mouths bug is back? On the quest Tunnel Vision the guy on the tower talks but the lips dont move... oh gosh

Quoting: Segata SanshiroWell, it now works with good framerates at high settings, but have this annoying issue where shadows appear and disappear very quickly right in front of me even when they're only a metre or two away. So going to have to wait for another patch... So close this time, it's such a minor issue but can see that getting soooo annoying even after a few minutes of playing that I'm not even going to bother...
LOL, I'm sorry for you but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one having those shadow flickering issue, which is very annoying indeed. I used to disable the sun shadows completely, the game gets a bit ugly but at least is playable on my low end hardware (gtx550ti)

Quoting: KimyrielleA survival game not involving zombies for a change? Wow! Call me interested!
Actualy, Planet Explorers (Fantasy+SciFy) has a survival mode, Beasts of Prey (Dinos) and even Rust doesn't have zombies so...

I think Early Access *can* be a good thing, is like back a game on Kickstarter and have the chance to "try it out" along the development process. But most people who complain don't understand that. If the game is playable, relatively stable, and have responsive and active devs, it worth to get an Early Access if you like the genre and see potential. But I agree it isn't for everyone, and in my case, I have to be *really* interested in the game to buy it.

Just to enlist some games that I have and consider successful active Early Access:
- Interstellar Marines,
- 7 Days to Die,
- Planet Explorers,]
- Starbound
- Verdun was released recently
