Played "Pillars of Eternity 2" for about an hour before the roomtemperature became too suffocating. I also installed "Slay the Spire" and "Helium Rain" to have ready when the time comes for more regular gaming again,

I´m really psyched about this title! I like the setting, the atmospheric graphics and both what I´ve seen and read about the gameplay itself.I´ve always wanted to play a turn based rpg like this in a horror setting, so it´s about high time it happens.

Space RPG 'Star Traders: Frontiers' to leave Early Access next week
26 Jul 2018 at 3:42 pm UTC

I bought this when it first entered early access and tested it for a little bit but I found it a tad difficult to get into. At the time, there was no tutorial and not much of a help system either so I felt a bit lost among all the choices and options.

I´ll be sure to give it another whirl sometime during autumn.

Rogue Legacy gets a five-year anniversary update

I played this for a while and quite enjoyed it. However, I didn´t get very far, either this is the kind of game that needs a controller to play or I just suck at platformers. (probably a bit of both)

A look at some top Linux games released in 2018

A very impressive year for certain and still so much to come. Apart from those mentioned above, there are still a bunch more linux titles that I am waiting for this year:

The Last Night [External Link] (Coming Soon)
Synstasis [External Link] (Coming Soon)
Pathway [External Link] (2018)
Stoneshard [External Link] (2018)
Shadow Over Isolation [External Link] (2018)
9 Monkeys of Shaolin [External Link] (2018)
Green Mirror [External Link] (Coming Soon)
Iratus [External Link] (October 2018)

...and that´s just some titles that currently fly the "SteamOS" icon on steam, there are of course a number of titles that are supposed to release on linux but still only display windows, such as "Bard´s Tale 4", "Synther", "Underworld Ascendant", "Quantum Replica", "Those who Remain", to name a few. ^_^

Thank god, I really want to play through PoE2 before this game and I expect I won´t be done with that until early september or thereabout. Then there´s my list of other titles I find very tempting, that *might* be released before september 25:th :

Battletech
LiS: Before the Storm
State of Mind
Insomnia: The Ark
Depth of Extinction
Synstasis
Bard´s Tale IV
Underworld Ascendant
Imperator: Rome

This game tops my list but this autumn it looks like a real deluge of interesting games are on the way to linux. It´s gonna be a pleasant challenge choosing what to play first and finding the time for all this gaming.

Quoting: bekoThat intro totally reminded me of JourneyQuest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_uNpAq2p9w&list=PLYr8WAAV5TCW4ku2KhSxqQ1_IInmyvWfH [External Link] :)
You´re right, it is rather similar. I´ve actually never watched "JourneyQuest" before, it seems kind of fun. :)

Futuristic thriller 'State of Mind' has a new story trailer and releasing a day earlier than expected
15 Jul 2018 at 9:16 pm UTC

Bought it! The game seems very promising and day1 linux-support is juat another reason to give my own support. However, my backlog has really started to grow lately so I doubt I´ll be playing it anytime soon.

What are you playing this weekend and what do you think about it?
14 Jul 2018 at 12:39 pm UTC

Nothing. It´s just *too-bloody-warm* for gaming, I had hoped that by now I would at least have played through PoE2 but I´ve only played it for about 15 hours since it was released. Looking at the weather forecast there is no gaming in sight for my foreseeable future. :'(:(

Valve seem to be tightening their rules on games with sexual content

This is pretty sad. I certainly hope that it´s a mistake that will be corrected in time. Otherwise, I too will be tempted to migrate away from steam as much as is feasible, given their massive dominance.

Ironically, it is a decision of theirs that don´t really impact me in any way whatsoever, since I don´t think I own a single sexually explicit game on steam, but nevertheless a decision that I find ethically abhorrent to the point where I want to minimize my support.

Leisure Suit Larry: Love for Sail! now has a Linux version on GOG

Very nice! This was actually one of the very few adventure-series from Sierra & Lucasarts that passed me by, back in the day. So I didn´t play it until I bought the modern remake of the first game in the series and found it quite entertaining, I guess this title will be my next adventure game of the series.
