I'm still on 410 stable. Am I losing out on something important?

I got it in the monthly that I bought because of Mutant Year Zero, but it's not my cup of tea. I'll trade it for something else.

Tacoma is quite decent. Not much to do in the game, but the story and setting are good.

This will be aimed at multiplayer games and possibly AAA, so it will probably be an expensive service and cover the kind of games that I don't play any more. Still, colour me intrigued, something interesting might come out of this, although other game streaming services were ultimately failures.
Humble Strategy Bundle 2019 is out and it's another good choice for Linux players

I also got the lowest tier, mostly for the Throne of Lies, but only afterwards I realized from Steam reviews that the game is almost dead. No matter, I'll get to try Ashes of Singularity once it comes out for Linux. Niche seems interesting as well, but I just don't have time to learn complicated games any more. The best games are easy to pickup, hard to master.

If you like board games, this one is relatively good, but it has its flaws.
- RNG can mess you a bit too much for my liking.
- Other players can also mess you up badly, someone suggested a name 'Trolls' for this game
- Games on average last a bit too long.
- Game by default leaves a lot of thinking time to the players, but because of its nature, it's a problem. You will be bored on other players' long turns and you still often won't have enough time to strategize, because other players can completely change your situation during their turns and you have to suddenly adapt.
- Not easy to pick up.

It's very rare that I skip a HIB, but this will be one of them. I remember when HIB used to be an elite bundle, games were getting Linux support so they could be included. Far cry from those days.

I had a Steam key for Evoland 2 lying around for a long time, got it in some bundle long forgotten. It looked interesting, but the game didn't have a Linux client or work in Proton. Activated it now and got the Legendary Edition for free.
