This game looks so good, I added it to my wishlist as soon as I saw it.
I actually am a VN fan, and I like how a number of the good ones are being released on Linux. Now I just need a good sandbox RPG.

What have you been playing on Linux recently and what do you think about it?

Satellite Reign is amazingly challenging and fun.
Mount & Blade: Warband is fun, although getting my stats up to the point where I can consistently besiege towns takes a while.
Baldur's Gate: EE is a bit more fun than the original, as I prefer the BG2 system, will be interesting when I get my character to BG2:EE.
Pillars of Eternity is less fun than BG:EE for some reason. Taking a page from MrBtongue's book, I suppose the game is too balanced.
Also played all through A Little Lily Princess recently, it's a bit softer than the book, but it's still a neat little timesink.
I've also been trying to get Divine Divinity: Original Sin working, but I fear I might need to run a Debian derivative, in which case it probably won't be worth the pain and humiliation.

I already have most of my games on both Steam ánd GOG (future-proofing FTW).
Still, nice to see GOG being so proactive in protecting the Steam userbase.

The red ones displayed on Dragonbox look nicer than the transparent one, in my humble opinion.
Still, after the troubles they've been having with the components for the Pandora, I'm hoping that the Pyra will get enough orders to give them a leg up in their dealings with their suppliers.

I've already got Shadowrun: Hong Kong on GOG, but I just might get it on Steam as well. Final Fantasy V, VI and X/X2 HD Remaster have been on my wishlist since I discovered them in the store. And more Dark Souls just because Dark Souls.

So when Shadwen's been released for Linux and patched to work correctly I'll be able to play it. Good to know.

Where Linux games are concerned, I've been playing some Mountain Blade: Warband and Baldur's Gate: EE. Furthermore I've been trying out Final Fantasy XIII and Dark Souls II under Wine.

Welp, guess I'd best quickly inform them that the demo is completely non-functional on my machine, might delay the Linux port by a day or two.
