This game was pretty good, the whole run/hide aspect added a good deal to the "horror-feel", compared to the "normal" horror-games where you shoot/blast/whack/slice/pummel and generally abuse anything that looks even remotely scary.

Quoting: KeizgonReally glad to see this one coming.

Wish Wolfenstein: The New Order would see the same fate. :/

Hm, yeah "W:TNO" was a very nice game and I'd really like the upcoming "Old Blood" expansion package... :-(

Sweeet!

Now it would be even sweeter if they'd port "Hard Reset: Extended Edition" as well. Sure, Shadow Warrior is better but HR:EE is a great little fps in its own right. I wouldn't mind replaying that, when I felt for just a bit of frantic, mindless shooting. (as a change of pace)

I've played for 3 hours on Ubuntu 14.10 and so far everything works great, no bugs, no crashes and even starting/exiting the game goes quickly (something I especially enjoy, since I like to play in short sessions like: 30 min gaming->30 min break->30 min gaming-> and so on)

The game also seems to have gotten a whole lot of praise from many sources:

PC Gamer - 92/100
FZ.se - 5/5
GameWatcher - 9.0/10
Pixel Dynamo - 8.8/10
Stevivor - 8.5/10
MMORPG.com - 9/10
Escapist Magazine - 5/5
DealSpwn - 9/10
Gamereactor - 8/10
Den of Geek - 4.5/5
PixelDynamo - 8.8/10
GameCrate - 8/10
PCGamesN - 10/10

...to name a few

"Shadowgate is one of the most well-known and beloved point-and-click adventure titles in gaming history. Apparently, I'm going to be honest and throw my hands up as I've never heard of it"

Lol, same thing here and "point and click" has always been a beloved genré of mine, having played everything released by "Sierra" and "Lucasarts" and tons of other adventures as well.

Still, I guess it's not so strange, since the time I've spent with mac-computers can be counted as a few days at most and the time I've spent with Nintendo-hardware, in a few hours.

I guess I'll give this title a go at some point.

I've only played through the tutorial but it does seem very promising (despite the troublesome camera/movement). Charming graphics and an enjoyable combat-system, if only level-design and puzzle-solving becomes as well done as in "Legend of Grimrock", I think it can become a real hit.

Still, like others I too will await the real launch when it leaves early-access. With "Worlds of Magic" that I'm currently playing and the just-about-to-launch "Pillars of Eternity", waiting shouldn't be too hard.

I was pretty depressed over the failure of "Seven Dragon Saga", that I had high hopes for:

However, now when you have opened my eyes to both "Halcyon6" and the possibility of "Dungeons of Aledorn", I do feel a bit better. Thanks !

Hmm...unfortunatly there's not much left to buy.

I have every title with a linux version, except "Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel" and although I bought all the story-dlc:s for "Borderlands 2", I never felt like playing longer than the main-story ending (and barely that long). So that was a bit of wasted money...

I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for more mayor publishers like "Square Enix", "Deep Silver" and "Bethesda".

I bought this game in early-access but I have managed to abstain from playing it until now.

Master of Magic, that this game is supposed to attempt to emulate or act as a spiritual successor to, used to be my favorite pc-game for a looong time. I have probably spent over 500 hours with MoM since v1.31 was released in 1995.

Lol, now I'm almost afraid to start playing for fear that it won't live up to my expectations.

This was a pretty good game as far as I recall, not a favorite among TPS/FPS by any means but still plenty enjoyable. A game well worth playing for those who haven't had the chanse.
