I was about to ask what happened to the guys behind the original game then I realised the guy in the teaser IS one of the guys behind the original game. :D

Editorial: On paying for Linux games when you already have a Windows version

Quoting: NanobangI think it's wonderful to receive free (or discounted) Linux ports of games I previously bought on Windows, but I certainly don't expect them. On my version of Earth things just don't work like that except in special cases. It's not normal to receive two things whenever we buy one thing. I.e.:

Quoting: liamdaweYou don’t buy a game for a PlayStation 4 and demand an Xbox One version as well ...


Well said, Liam! Case closed.
You're right BUT Steam isn't limited to one OS anymore, like Playstation or Xbox.

If someone paid £40+ in the past for a Windows only game that gets ported to Linux it's a bit unfair to expect them to pay the same price again, a discount for existing customers that goes 100% to the porter is the only sensible way to go, new buyers pay full price for whichever version they want.

Quoting: lucifertdarkthe VR bandwagon
VR bandwagon? It's Stephensons Rocket. I know, because I'm on it ;)
I have tried it, but the price is way too high for me for what amounts to a one trick pony, even if it is a one trick pony express. ;)

ALSO, I personally would have to upgrade my processor, video card, Ram, Hard Drive, heck I'd need an almost entire new system just so I could spend another £700+ to strap the headset on & be able to actually use it.

As one of the many thousands (or millions) that isn't planning to jump on the VR bandwagon unless the price drops drastically, I'd like to see Unreal Engine working in Linux properly before they start fiddling with fancy fluff like VR.

HITMAN released for Linux, initial port report and two gameplay videos

Quoting: DribbleondoLikely in March, early summer, if I were to guess.

I've said this in other places, but there's a 99% chance Season 2 will be day one for Linux, given the Way Hitman is designed to be an all-encompassing, always online game thingy.
I hope so, the ending has left me wanting more. :D First game in years that I've wanted to & managed to play all the way through.

What have you been playing recently and what do you think about it?

I've just finished the main story of Hitman, it's actually the first game in years that I've wanted to play all the way through to the end. I want more!
