Did you think I don't religiously check every damn news post on this site anyway? :P

Of course you're right, I am interested. I didn't have anything interesting to say, but I am one of the two (as of now) people to have "liked" the article.

Quoting: Zlopez

QuoteThe Steam wishlist feature only works to show Linux users wishlisting it if they know about it and only tick Linux as the single platform, so this is the next best thing. It also does no harm and costs nothing to try.

I didn't know, that you can tick Linux as platform in your wishlist. How do you do that?

For this to work, you need to set Linux as the only operating system in your platform preferences. (Account Details -> Preferences in the client.) This mostly hides non-linux content on the store "Featured" page so it's not a wishlist setting.

Quoting: Mountain Man

Quoting: Mountain ManInteresting, because when I checked out at the Humble store, a big red warning appearing saying, "This title does not work in Linux!"

Or is that only the Humble version?

They've messed up the store for it, since they do list the Linux dev/publisher (Feral) but didn't check it for supporting Linux so it has no icon. I can assure you, Feral did port it to Linux ;)

Fair enough. I am no longer disappointed. :)

Speaking of Humble messing up, I must have sent half a dozen mails to Humble support by now to tell them of missing Linux icons for games in new bundles. They do eventually add them every time, but I'm a bit miffed they still keep doing this.

Quoting: GuestStrangely F12017 runs better than 2015, it is not a slideshow when I start from the back of the grid. :)

F1 2015 uses OpenGL on Linux, 2017 runs on Vulkan. Might have something to do with it.

GOL tournament coming up?


EDIT: By that I mean something long-running like the Dirt Rally league. Would be fun to do a few casual matches weekly or maybe bi-weekly.

Of course people with actual skills might want to do a proper, less casual league every once in a while.

Quoting: throghWell, another Unity-game with included and enforce telemetry.

Analytics are hard to resist. They're a very valuable business tool even if they have no intention of directly profiting from the data. I just think this should be opt-in, even if they don't collect any identifiable personal information.

The last proper beat-em-up I put any serious time in might have been Motörhead on the Amiga, sometime in the early nineties. Maybe it's time to give the genre another chance? Judging by the trailer, this game could be hard to resist. Hopefully it turns out as good as it looks.

Quoting: tuubiIf you'd mixed up Amiga and Atari back in the 16bit A500/ST days, you'd have had both camps coming after you with torches and pitchforks. ;)

I never owned a gaming console because I never found them interesting and useful enough.

Neither did I. Despite the gaming focus, these were personal computers, not consoles.

It was a bit like the console wars, but more... beige. And smaller in scale, confined mostly to European nerd circles I think.

I'm eager to find out what makes it an adventure. Everything points to the game being more of a sandbox. It looks fun, but I usually need some sort of a story and/or goals to keep me interested.
