Quoting: CyrilWill it come on GOG ? I'm afraid about the answer.
Well they mentioned it'll be on everything including the kitchen sink so it's a possibility for GOG. ;)

Vikings - Wolves of Midgard to have a Linux version after the initial Windows release
19 Mar 2017 at 1:21 pm UTC

Quoting: tuubiIf you look at the screen grab with the lower price in Pit's earlier post, it clearly shows € (euro) as the currency, and he said he was in Sweden, not the UK. Converted to Swedish kronor the price would be 363.49 according to Google. Besides, 38.29 € is more like £33.20.
Yep you're right, not sure where I pulled Spain from, put it down to me having a funny turn while typing. ;)

Vikings - Wolves of Midgard to have a Linux version after the initial Windows release

Quoting: GuestWow! Indeed, if I use my computer in Spain to go to the page it also shows me 44.99->38.29€.
I wonder if this is on purpose (why?) or some sort of error....
It's just currency conversion, these days everyone pays the same price but converted to your currency so 38.29 in Spain is the same as 29.79 in the UK.

Kerbal Space Program expansion 'Making History' announced with some fun new tools

Quoting: neowiz73I tried one of their free beta versions a long time ago. even though I really like sandbox games the original KSP didn't seem to have much for goals other than just seeing if you could get a hunk of metal to fly.
I hope they continue to add more expansions like this. It has finally peaked my interest :)
You wouldn't recognise it now, there's so much more to it these days, you have specific tasks that earn you money so you can pay to research bigger & better parts for your rockets, there are space bases to build & launch, other planets to land on, it's not just seeing if you can get a rocket to fly anymore.

Man O' War: Corsair - Warhammer Naval Battles is still coming to Linux, seems pretty certain

Quoting: lucifertdarkDon't want to put a downer on this but what OS does the Steam box they were using have installed? I seem to remember most are Windows based & not acutally SteamOS.
I'm sure they meant a Steam Machine. Valve has control over what can be sold as a Steam Machine [External Link]. Those are all sold with SteamOS, and as another example of the control Valve have they've commented that they rejected some hardware vendor's plans to include optical drives. Some of that hardware is also sold with Windows, but Valve isn't involved and it has to be rebranded.
I'll look before I leap next time. :D Anyway the game is out on Linux/SteamOS, so I was wrong all round. :D

Quoting: KimyrielleSounds awesome! They are sooo going to need these parachutes! :D
Parachutes? No my Kerbals love to glide in to land at 1,000 mph & go out in a blaze of glory, at least that's what I tell everyone at their funerals. ;)

I was given it for Christmas 2013 so the DLC won't be free for me.

Some thoughts on Hard West

Quoting: lucifertdarkAnyone remember the game Mad Dog McCree?
I can't say that I remember it, but apparently my brother found a copy of it while thrifting:
That's the one, the acting was so bad it was funny, but I kept going back to try beating it time after time, never did get all the way through.

Another HITMAN elusive target is now live to attempt
18 Mar 2017 at 1:48 pm UTC

Quoting: Eike
Quoting: HadBabitsMy first elusive target attempt was a success :) I was nervous since I'm used to having the god of saves to resurrect me
This is what's making it sound really exciting. How long will they provide new special missions like this? Should I get Hitman soon? :)
It is the most exciting game I've played in a while, the early missions are pretty simple, but then it gets way harder & Colorado is a legitimate nightmare to get through, I was stuck on Colorado for 5 days before I finally cracked it & then Hokkaido, the final mission, took me only a couple of hours after that. These Elusive Targets are the game slapping you & saying "you think you've got what it takes? think again". 75hours in with the main storyline finished & I'm still not good enough for the latest Elusive Target.
