Quoting: Geppeto35With one baby of few months
Congratulations!

Quoting: Geppeto35hard to play for me (one hour max per day, and only when he is sleeping, so no immersive games...don't do child :-P )
Man, you could have really told that some months ago...! :p

Quoting: Drakker
Quoting: EikeAlready loved it when I heard the title music (again). :)
That title theme is amazing. Before I got the soundtrack I'd start the game and let it on the title screen just to listen to it. ;)
Same here! :D
Started the game in the morning just to listen to some good music when getting ready for work. :)

That questions comes in handy. :)

I've been playing through Infinifactory [External Link], where you create transportation and welding mechanisms to build and deliver... things. It's a strange game. I didn't find it very stringent, it's not delivering new mechanisms and using them in an intelligent way. Still, I played through it, taking 80 hours. It's just satisfying: build machines, see them fail over and over again, until it all fits together... just to be confronted with another, even more complicated task. In the end, it got too complicated, but I didn't want to give up before finally... well, go see yourself. :)

80 hours, that's place 5 in my personal charts, after Frozen Synapse, XCOM, Skyrim and Wasteland 2.

Quoting: chepatiFor some reason I get no sound output. In Settings/Audio I get NOSOUND under Driver (quoting from memory). For the life of me I couldn't figure out what was wrong. Have all the pulseaudio 32bit libraries too.

However, I got a few games where sound doesn't work: Book of Unwritten Tales 2, Don't Starve, etc.

Must be a simple thing I'm overlooking...
All three games you mentioned are working for me with PulseAudio.

Quoting: GuestHas anyone completed the game but still not finished most of the sidequests?
I need a savegame like that, my savegame is corrupted and it's not giving me the 100% completion on deep fria's territory, that means i can't get all the achievements.

Quoting: EikeStopped to play it after 10 hours max. Ubisoft formula crap. Don't buy it. :)
Maybe you had some savegame that i can use? Or you didnt completed so much?
I don't think I got there, but I can take a look.

Future Stardock games may come to Linux thanks to Vulkan

Quoting: chepatiOther than The Talos Principle, is there another game (Steam or GOG hosted) I can try now, not in the future, that has a working Vulkan renderer? I just set up Vulkan on my PC (NVidia card) and want to verify that it works. It's akin to learning to play the piano, without the piano, at the moment :-)
Well... DOOM? *whisper* It's on Windows, though.

Aspyr Media will be publishing 'InnerSpace' from PolyKnight Games helping it come to Linux

I guess that's what "original IPs" was about? Smaller games? I'm fine with smaller games, but then, it would be nice to have one more house to port bigger ones.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyNot really what that sort-of-scientific notion is about. It's maybe easier to dig if you assume massively multiple parallel universes with all different rules. Which universe would we be in? The one with rules that allow us to exist in it. Similarly, can we expect our universe is a big one or a small one? Big, because on average there's gonna be a lot more life in the big ones. Et cetera.
