I wish they ported sang froid first.

Quoting: NovenThis is why I am glad the Steam controller will be out eventually. Having a native supported controller will be very nice.

There are already several controllers with excellent native support in Linux (with SDL2). Sadly that does not translate to universal support in games. Even some big budget titles/ports manage to mess things up. I doubt this will change overnight when the Steam Controller comes out. I also doubt the dual touchpads can beat more conventional controller designs in certain types of games, but we'll see.

Which controllers are you talking about? I would love an excellent controller because my Logitech F310 does not work.

I have an old Logitech wingman extreme gamepad which sadly has a ruptured button membrane and has worked flawlessly since I've bought it 16 years ago, had a gravis joystick about the same age that also worked until it stopped working, I have a cheap usb gamepad of crappy quality that also worked out of the box as well as a Logitech wingman extreme joystick that also work flawlessly, not to mention there are xbox and PS controllers and a multitude of others compatible with those consoles that also work flawlessly under linux.

EDIT: BTW a quick google search tells me that your gamepad works just fine if you set the switch on the bottom to the right mode.

Everyone seems to have missed Ghost of a Tale [External Link] which is aiming for Autumn release.

Awesomenauts is my poison, Strife is ok but haven't played much at all.

Quoting: MaelraneThe shop on their site is what is hindering me from buying the game. I mean, there is just too much which seems to go in the direction "pay to win" or rather "pay to have fun".

Apart from houses, everything you buy in the shop you can make in game, you only pay for the convenience of not having to repair it. And they say the best gear will be crafted by the players anyway.

Actually there are mini maps, you just have to buy them from an NPC and open them from the inventory, and they do contain names of places in town, but as ou might have guessed, they are in runic only :P

I also think you haven't explored the combat system long enough. It is indeed as you describe as you have to select an enemy and then press number keys or the icons in the hot bar, but you can customize it greatly and you have to invest skill points on the focus tree if you want to get fancy with it.

This seems pretty much like the free to play robocraft, but on water and less polished.

It's full of negative steam reviews so I'll pass for now.

It would be a wonderful surprise if it was Septerra Core!
