The Humble Paradox Bundle 2018 is a rather enticing deal

Quoting: KelsSo are the base games for PoE

Absolutely!!

I've never played any of the PoE DLC, and I really, really enjoyed PoE.

Quoting: KuromiShame they didnt put Pillars of Eternity as DRM-free even with Obsidian selling it DRM-free on GOG

If it's DRM-free it's DRM-free on steam as well. You just have to (or not) download it using their client.
Btw, for Stellaris, is it only the base game?

Not necessarily. There are plenty of games that are available DRM free on GOG or Humble that are DRM'ed on Steam.

I'm not sure about PoE though.

I'm going to pass on this one - the only thing I'm missing is Magicka 2, and I'm not much of a co-op player.

Quoting: GuestKDE devs don't care about nvidia and nvidia doesn't care about xwayland

Another reason to ditch Nvidia. In a few years, Nvidia will be barely used on Linux. See the trend on the same page you linked to.

As long as AMD can get their shit together in the laptop market, I'll agree with you. Up to now, laptop users who wanted gaming performance had to go with nVidia.
The GOG winter sale is on, you can grab Grim Fandango Remastered for free

Quoting: 14I'm most tempted by Icewind Dale, which has nothing to do with the fact that I'm reading the fourth Legend of Drizzt book right now. ;)

haha I bought it on mobile recently because it was on sale... lemme tell you I'm afraid of buying Planescape, I might never put down my phone...
These infinity engine games were written for mobile they just didn't know it back then.

Truth!

I've been playing through Baldur's Gate on my tablet right now, and it's exactly like you say - designed for mobile. I bought all four when they were on sale....
There's masses of good Linux games on sale right now

Quoting: scaineAnd while I get your argument about dual-booting and Wine gaming and so on, you have to remember that many people wouldn't be using Linux at all if it weren't for those options.

This.

I certainly wouldn't have completely switched to Linux if WINE didn't exist. WINE and I have had a rocky relationship, and I've refused to use it at all for long periods of time. I do still have a hand-full of games that I use WINE for.

As a general rule, I only buy Linux games, but every now and again GOG hits me right in the nostalgia, and I buy a non-Linux game to play via WINE.
Pillars of Eternity: Definitive Edition announced for later this month, new content included

Quoting: beko@hummer010: So I've to quote myself now?
Quoting: beko
QuoteThe new Deadfire Pack DLC will also be made available for free to all existing (and future) owners of Pillars of Eternity on Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs to thank them for their ongoing support of what has become one of the world’s most beloved RPGs.

Says the website.
If it doesn't show up on release you may drop them a mail. I'll do it too in that case :)

You can quote yourself if you like, but neither your original post, nor their website answers my question.

I have the basic pre-order edition, which is essentially the Hero edition. The Definitive edition is going to include all content from the Royal edition. Obsidian has never offered any way for people to upgrade already purchased editions.

I'll get the Deadfire DLC for free, and I can buy the White March DLCs, but I still won't have all of the content of the new Definitive edition.

And unless they offer some sort of upgrade path, the only way to get that content is to re-buy the whole game, which I'm not willing to do.

Quoting: Mountain ManI wonder if there will be a lower-priced upgrade for people who already own the original game?

This. I have the pre-order edition on GOG, but neither of the White March DLC.

I doubt, seeing as they've not had any upgrades between editions since release, but I can hope!
There's so many Linux games on sale right now, it's a good time if you're skint

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLOutlast + DLC for free on HumbleStore for next two days (steam key + drm free)

Can anybody see a DRM-Free download of the Whistleblower DLC for Linux? I can only see a windows one.

Nope. I've owned Outlast + Whistleblower on Humble for a long time, and there's never been a Linux version of the Whistleblower. It's frustrating for sure. GOG has a Linux version of Whistleblower, so I'm not sure what the problem is for Humble. I emailed Humble, they said check with the developer. I emailed the developer and never got a response.
