Mudlet, the open source MUD client has a new major stable build available
27 Mar 2017 at 11:57 am UTC

Quoting: AlephcatThere is already a Discworld UI for mudlet, but V3 seems to break it a bit. I'm going to have a look at it when I get some time, but I'll have to learn LUA at the same time so may not be quick. I'll post on the DW boards if I manage to get something decent going.
Thanks!
There is indeed a DW interface but it has always been broken and not really offering as much as I'd like to have.
This guy, on the other hand, has been an absolute legend and has created near-perfect UI for mushclient Discworld:

Some people might consider it a bit cheating to have the maps but given the size of the world, for me, it's a must. :P

This is excellent. I do a bit of Mudding with gf every once in a while in Discworld, but have to use Mushclient with Wine, because I find Mudlet too difficult to modify for Discworld.
If anyone knows LUA and would like to make a great UI for it, I'd love to hear more about it. :P

This looks very fun to play with a few mates. I'll scribble in the Discord if more testers are needed for pre-release builds. :P

This is excellent news. The more people working on Linux's projects, the better for us all, especially when it's big names like Keith.

Horrible captcha, but once you get past it, it looks to be the best twitch app on linux so far.

Feral Interactive have released the HITMAN system requirements for Linux, NVIDIA & AMD supported
9 Feb 2017 at 6:57 pm UTC

Lets see how the graphics are degraded or the performance holds up for the port. It's feral, so it'll probably be reasonable... but I'm rather amazed by the low requirements... given how it looks and the amount of stuff going on at once, I would think a 1070 would be recommended. But we'll see. Fingers crossed.

Anyway, another title which to buy then. :)

DiRT Rally announced for Linux, arriving on March 2nd
2 Feb 2017 at 8:10 pm UTC

Oh man, finally... now that D4 was announced, it's time for them to scrape up the remains with a linux port... how sweet.
Well, at least we can buy it in March then. Luckily the port will be pretty good considering that it's from Feral.
