Shadow of the Tomb Raider is officially coming to Linux in 2019

Quoting: m0nt3
Quoting: KeyrockI might actually get this. I was not a fan of the reboot nor Rise of the Tomb Raider, mainly because they were 90% murder simulator and 10% actual raiding of tombs, and I would much rather the ratio was reversed. However, I have heard that while Lara still goes on a ridiculous murdering spree in this game, at least there is a lot more exploration and tomb raiding, which is my jam.

Now port HITMAN 2 (actual murder simulator), please. Pretty please.
Made me laugh
Ironically, the whole point of HITMAN is to kill as few people as possible. While you can achieve your objective in any way you see fit, in order to get a silent assassin rating and the highest score possible, you have to kill the target(s) and ONLY the target(s). The game actively punishes you for killing anyone else. So while HITMAN is absolutely a game about murdering people, I mean, you play an assassin, it's a game where the best score is attainable by killing as few people as possible.

Compare that to Tomb Raider 2013 where Lara murders roughly 500 Russians. She then comes back and kills another 500 Russians in Rise of the Tomb Raider. Lara must really hate Russians. Her bloodlust for Russian blood is insatiable. :O

Lara is a far more prolific, albeit less stylish, killer than Agent 47, and she's supposed to be an archeologist.

Valve's card game Artifact is running very well on Linux, releasing next week

I wish I had a beta key but I have to wait a little over a week. I've been really looking forward to this. I played MTG waaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day (the physical version) and have been wanting to get into a CCG for a while, but Hearthstone is just too simplistic for my tastes and no other CCG really grabbed my attention until Artifact.

It's probably Total War: War of Totality: Part 87

Valve gave out more details about Artifact, including some public APIs and pre-order is up

Quoting: BrisseHaven't really gotten into any of these card games (except The Witcher 3 minigame :D ). I was mildly interested in this as a potential entry point, but then I learned...

Additional packs of cards will be $1.99, each pack has 12 random cards. You will also be able to buy and sell cards on the Steam Market.
...that it has gambling mechanics. No thanks.
In fairness, this is exactly how physical trading card games work. You buy packs of cards and get random cards inside.
