132 of the 250 most highly rated games on Steam support Linux, even more when counting Steam Play

Quoting: ArdjeI don't know how that list is compiled. I miss GTA V/online, ARK, and a few others.I didn't look through it, but I expect a list of highly rated games to be mostly niche games. Games drawing many buyers from different directions will get their share of downvotes. Games with a very specific audiance, say text adventures (do play Thaumistry!) draw only those that will enjoy if it is done well.
I mean: common, a list without GTA V is just incomplete.

Thanks for your thoughts! I got no idea what to expect here. Maybe it's one of the very seldom cases where I might watch a little video before buying into it. Or I'll keep refunding in mind when trying it.

Quoting: fnordianslipThen they are gonna get spanked!I'm interested in your (technical and gamewise) experience when you play it.
BTW, the installation problem seems to be fixed now :)
Some thoughts on Linux gaming in 2018, an end of year review

About the indies, I wonder what you're into if you didn't find any gems there.

Quoting: BeamboomThis year... No titles that really tickles my preferences. Sure, Tomb Raider is a very beautiful game and I feel bad for not being more excited about it. I bought it, of course, but have yet top play it... I've also purchased a stack of small indies that was fun for a handful of hours, but nothing I couldn't live without, to put it like that.I had never played any Tomb Raider before and was suprised how much fun I had when playing the reboot. Give it a try...

Quoting: BeamboomSo actually, yeah when I think about it, this year does indeed feel like another step down, from a very subjective point of view. Overall 2018 feels more empty!I guess it's mostly about how you you feel about Proton. If you like it (or have great hopes in it raising the Linux player numbers), it probably was a very interesting year. If not... not so much. But I do like that Feral seems to do the opposite of giving up lately! :)
The Steam Winter Sale is now live, prepare your wallet

Of the 48 (relased) games on my wish list, only 5 don't have a discount, and it wouldn't surprise me if the developers/publishers of those are gone.

Quoting: LeopardSteam Sale is a dissappointment generally. There are so less discounts on games that i'm interested.Do you mean too small discounts or too few games discounted?

Planet Nomads has another update out with new weather types and lots of tweaks

Question would be rather if there's better stuff when ignoring multiplayer.
21 Dec 2018 at 8:11 am UTC
Quoting: TheRiddickI bought it on the premise that multiplayer would be a thing. While some may dislike multiplayer, you must remember that there are FAR better survival games out WITH multiplayer in them! Just keep that nugget of information in mind when rejoicing over Planet Nomads.Well, if you're not into multiplayer, the "WITH multiplayer" part obviously means nothing to you.

The Black Mesa team have pushed out a new Linux beta

No, seriously: It seems to be a big project with continous progress and I wish them (and me, that is) best of luck with it.

Quoting: DemezCrowbar Collective just announced the final chapters of the game (Xen) just a few weeks ago on Half-Life's 20th Anniversary, which is set to release in Q2 2019, so not even in the 20's.[X] I want to believe. ;)

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive had plenty of updates lately, Danger Zone is looking good

More seriously:
You get/got a “Prime” status and earn some extra skins, as far as I've read.
