Quoting: Asuthey should really make a proper multiplayer game. It's time for them to go big.
A crack at diablo or something.

Torchlight 2 is fun and all, but there needs to be something in the Diablo 3 range for Linux.

I think I'll be giving this a miss, having watched a couple hours of gameplay. It does look very good, but it's simply not the sort of game I'm personally into. Fun to watch others play though.

I will definitely be getting the soundtrack though. Not only is it Darren Korb, joined once again by the talented Ashley Barrett, who provided vocals for Bastion and Transistor as well, but it's an excellent value at two full hours! I simply can't not get this!

An indie mashup without Shovel Knight? Is that even legal?

I might be a little late due to circumstances, but I'll be there!

Think I'm going to give this one a miss. It (mostly) runs on my hardware, although with an occasional slowdown, but I lose pretty much all the story because all the cutscenes choke. They're completely unwatchable slideshows.

Plus there's this weird thing where it decides sometimes to pay attention to mouse input instead of controller, and the movement flips out until I love the mouse around a bit.

Free, huh? That's a good opportunity to see if it actually runs on my system without wasting money.

Quoting: AlveKattJust want to put it out there for everyone pointing out that windows/console game backlash for shitty releases has been even worse: "The other guys are even worse" is not an acceptable excuse for shitty behaviour. Ever.

I agree that it doesn't excuse the shitty behaviour, and I agree that it was very shitty and in no way even close to justified. There's no defending that shit and everyone involved should be ashamed and just get into the sea.

However, I don't think most people bringing it up are trying to justify said behaviour, so much as to use it to point out the hypocricy and startling unprofessionalism of basing collective punishment of the Linux community, most of whom had nothing to do with it and many of whom spoke out against it at the time.

I played the demo, and found there were some major slowdowns when you were on the deck of the ship. The tutorial fight with the captain was utterly painful since the framerate dropped to something like 1/3 normal. All other areas were fine, and the ends of the ship were okay. But that central part of the deck was consistently terrible.

Hopefully that's fixed in the full version.

I've hated the damn gibberish chat right from the start. It's badly implemented and annoying, so making it unskippable was a major downside for me. By contrast, look at the old PS1 game Klonoa to see the same idea done well.
