Quoting: ghiumaYou can try Ghiumaho or asmita69, thanks, buddy.
Deadlock has been on my list for months...
I can't find either, sorry. If you send me a friend code or quick invite link via e-mail I can add you though, my address is [removed because it's done], just put Deadlock in the subject or something.

Quoting: ghiumaGuys, can someone who plays it invite me? (ghiumaho)
I would, but I can't find your Steam profile under that name.

Street Brawl is really fun, reminds me of 5 capture point maps in TF2.

Masters of Albion from Peter Molyneux / 22cans arrives in April

Molyneux is a fair bit infamous nowadays after some past events.
Even that is an understatement IMO, Molyneux is one of the least reliable and reputable "auteur" types out there. A few good games in the 90s with Bullfrog, then nothing but trash (I played Black & White on launch, what a shitshow). I'm convinced that the other people at Bullfrog were responsible for the success of their games, he's just good at bullshitting.

My favorite so far: "Curiosity: What's Inside the Cube?", a mobile "game" where you tap cubes to make them disappear. He promised a "life-changingly amazing" prize for whoever clicked on the last cube. The prize was... 1% of the revenue from Godus (so nothing) and some input on that game's design.

And THEN he goes on to claim that they never took money from people with Curiosity, something that is straight-up not true because of course there were microtransactions. Just not the macrotransactions he originally wanted - you know, pay $10000 to remove an entire layer of the cube.

It's like a multi-layered trolling attempt, except he's not trying to be funny. He's just a giant douche who's obsessed with lording over the little people for some reason.

Don't see a single word about Linux support on the Steam page either.

Client-side anticheat is invasive and silly, so good riddance.

Microsoft's new Recall AI will take screenshots of everything you do - freaky

It's good that you need some "premium" AI accelerator for this to work, but I also wouldn't be surprised if they decided that it has been "so successful" (read: not enough people buy the hardware) that the less fortunate will get access too - using the power of the cloud, of course.

"If we only had a few more programmers" he said while drying his tears of sorrow with the stack of microtransaction dollars he made that same minute.

I don't use it but I'm interested in it because it seems to fit the same niche XFCE does, except with Wayland support.

Coming from the same developer as the Lycanthorn and Shrine series, you know you're in good hands.
I don't know, I played through Lycanthorn 1 & 2 (free) and thought they were OK but flawed, especially the boss battles. Every single one of them locks you in a tiny room where you have to circle-strafe and fire everything until the boss keels over. The exact same thing shown in the video at 0:05.

Add to that the lack of different weapons and low enemy variety (basically two types: Rush to melee or shoot slow projectile) and you get something that looks neat and has some interesting ideas but is nowhere near as fun as Doom. I'd probably watch some more gameplay before considering buying this if any of the above would bother you.

Bought and played this over two years ago, and even then it was already quite impressive. I should go back.
