I'm happy that Mesa is developing quickly, but I don't know if Radeon cards are worth it on Linux. AMD currently has better offer in mid-range graphic card segment, but what's the point if many games won't work.

I think it's time to face the fact that all I really want I already have. Few games I have some interest in are still more expensive than what I'm willing to pay to try them out.
So, I'm thinking of spending 5 euros to honor a developer of a classic, even if I don't necessarily plan to play that game. But now is the question which one, Baldur's Gate EE, Metro Redux bundle or Oddworld remake?

The Exiled, an open-world survival arena that combines MMO and MOBA together supports Linux

Launcher indeed is not working, don't bother with it. If you want to play, you have to download the client and later patch manually. Not sure if it's worth the trouble for now, maybe I'll wait when it's closer to release.
I always worry around addictive time consuming games, I was addicted to an MMO and later to MOBAs. If it's bad, you waste a lot of time to get into it just to abandon it. Not a good situation for working people.

Got the key, will give this a go. Always wanted a MMO / MOBA hybrid and they bought me with no grid promise.

Anything by Blizzard or Ubisoft. That would signal we're finally serious game platform.
Privately, I'd like Titanfall 2.

The developers of 'Darksiders' comment on the Linux version, they couldn't fix the issues

Sad, but expected by now. This goes to the scrapped pile. Played in in Windows some, it was good.
If Dragon's Dogma comes to Linux, I'll forget all about sad story with Darksiders.

Some nuts Black Friday deals for Linux gamers to make note of

Not many good deals, I'm afraid. I got Life is Strange and Sheltered, more because the price was right than anything else. If a game is able to provide me hour of good fun per euro paid, I consider that money well spent. Sadly, too few games are able to grab and hold my attention nowdays.

Expected Life is Strange to be on sale, disappointed that it isn't. No other game I want is on significant sale either. I should really pick up Metro Redux games, but I won't be able to play them before I buy a new computer anyway, so there is no rush.
Review: Linux gave me one of my best gaming experiences yet with Life is Strange

The new genre of story adventures is my kind of thing. When I first played The Wolf Among Us episode 1 I fell in love immediately and bought all the episodes. But the same thing didn't happen when I played Life is Strange. I will still buy it though, but I'll wait for a 50% discount.
The game just doesn't have interesting characters, all is too cliché. Second, even those characters are not believable, in Oxenfree for instance main character indeed reasons and speaks like a teenage girl to the point where I as a middle aged man could not relate to the character. On the other hand, Max feels like a grown man pretending to be a teenage girl. Don't post any spoilers as I do want to finish the game at some point, but just barely.

Wanted so much to love this game, but in never clicked for me. Too fast, too dark, I was getting lost in combat most of the time.
