If this was a single player survival/base building or story based game I would have bought it on launch. Unfortunately I have zero interest in MMOs at this point. It's a shame, because a lot of the visuals and some of the gameplay looks fun.

Very nice! I'll probably need to buy them again now. A little disappointing that the Linux versions aren't included, but I've been running them through Proton anyway because the ports were giving me issues.

It's hard to believe the Rise of the Tomb Raider is almost 10 years old already. It doesn't seem like that long ago that I finished it and then waited excitedly for Shadow to come out.

Edit: They're even on sale right away too! I already owned the 2013 game on GOG, but I got the bundle for the other two.

Interesting! It looks like they plan to sell it during early access, but go f2p upon full release. I wonder what their monetisation strategy is after that point. I see there's a demo for it, I'll have to give that a try!

I hope someone that is a little less spiteful toward Linux is able to get the license. I had a lot of fun playing the older WRC games!

And.... now I need to go play Morrowind again!

Nice to see the new hardware compatibility being added. I'm very tempted to get something from the Basilisk line to see how they stack up against the G502.

Civ V and Civ IV still work for me, so I don't have much reason to upgrade at this point. Hopefully they get the bugs worked out for the people that did though.

I'll have to jump back into it again and see what the improvements are like. I still prefer AOE2 because of how long I've played it, but 0AD is a lot of fun as well.

I get the idea that the devs were watching some Doctor Who recently! :wink:

Quoting: EhvisTo be fair, if you look in the screenshots in the article then you see that the top review without the new system has 14 helpful tags and the one with the system has 65. So just sorting it would have been better.

I'm assuming it has something to do with their algorithm, but you are correct. I've also seen those junk reviews with hundreds or even thousands of helpful tags as well though, so it may still not be able to filter all of them out.

It's tough for me to say what the best option is, but I'm just glad they're trying something! I've looked at a few games since I read the article, and the new system has definitely brought up the more thoughtful and informative reviews, at least for the moment.
