I'm still using Solus with Budgie, which is my first Linux system. Back then, seeing pictures and videos about that OS and DE made me want to switch to Linux from Windows 7. It was something that look modern, not too different from Windows, and that wasn't feeling like a bloated mess like Windows. I also liked its dark mode, with a very dark black, instead of the dark grey that most dark modes provide. Since then, I still like Budgie (although I'm thinking about quitting Solus) because of it's simplicity, and still decent customisable options.

I hate to say this, but Ubisoft games are the only ones I'm tempted to play as a pirate copy. Just because they don't have 3rd party launchers and therefore work better on Linux! That's not how it's supposed to work !

Once again, I'll buy several games on sale, but will end up playing some FOSS games instead :-D

I wonder how those results are computed. Are these based on total connected users every day? Are they based on a sample of users? On all users at one particular moment?

Many factors could explain the "up-and-down" pattern shown on the graph.

One possible explanation could be that many Linux users aren't hardcore gamers and don't connect to Steam all the time, which could explain the pattern. If we have a small sample of users, then the amount of Linux users fluctuate more.

I've just finished the whole game yesterday. It's a shame I didn't know about this update, now that I've uninstalled the game. I might play it again for the achievements some day...

Thanks to this website, I've discovered Balde of Agony, and I'm having a lot of fun playing it. Currently doing chapter 2.

It would be good if they could remaster the AI as well.

"oh a wall of super long pikes that will kill half of us for sure. CHAAAAAAAARGE!"
"My empire is crumbling, I am invaded from all sides, I have no money in my treasury. I'll still attack that human player's city with all I have. Maybe the 17th siege will finally work..."
"Boss, they have killed half of our troops with these archers. Shouldn't we retaliate or something? Nay, we don't have cavalry, let's just wait till they are out of arrows"

I played this game to death back in the day, and I have fond memories of all the campaigns I played. But in the end, every battle was about exploiting the AI stupidity...
