Mordor 2: Darkness Awakening. It's an oldie, but a goldie.
Underworld Ascendant for Linux still coming, should be this month

From all I've seen of the game it looks absolutely bitching. Can't wait to give it a try. Only too bad EA wants to keep the Ultima franchise dead.

In any case, you'd think that after "Bad Taste" (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-11421) DE devs would've learned to not allow code execution in thumbnail display. I'll grant that Bad Taste was a bit more specific than the one KDE has at the moment.

"To be honest, I was debating on going into the code and making the change myself considering KDE is open source," Penner said.This guy, man... he had a good idea, but threw it all away for his 5 minutes in the limelight.

Ultima Underworld 2. I started a game of UU1 before I remembered how much better UU2 is. Also started another run of Wizardry VI (to be carried on through to 8), which gives me all the feels.

Well anyway, if reviews of new releases of distros are gonna be a thing now, I'm looking forward to the review of the next release of Fedora.

Also, outdated drivers make for poor gaming.

kernel 4.15...Wait what? 5.2 is stable and 4.19 is long-term support. The LTS before 4.19 was 4.14. Why is Mint on 4.15? This doesn't make any sense.

Looks like supporting multiple platforms has been worth it for Rings of Saturn

Before we cheer too much, what're their total numbers like? If Linux is doing very well I think their numbers may be kinda low. Not to be too much of a downer, it means indies do have an incentive to support Linux if they can do so without having to mess too much with porting.

Protip for those who find using the left touchpad as a D-Pad to be awkward: try setting it to Radial Menu, with the first 8 inputs being D-Pad Up, Up & Right, Right, Right & Down, Down, Down & Left, Left, Left & Up; with activation on always. Though it may not work for inputting beat 'em up moves.

I don't like using the left trackpad as a "push" type D-Pad, but you can easily rejigger the stuff to be more pleasant to use. Looking forward to the SC2, it's gonna be great.

Quoting: GuestYes, games are kernel modules, you linux very good indeed. Bravo.Quoting: tmtvlMeh, I'm more looking forward to what AMD's up to. NVidia doesn't support OSS so it doesn't belong on a Linux system.Games don't support OSS which means that gaming doesn't belong on a "Linux system".
