I bought the game in one of the more recent Steam sales. Can't say I am impressed, because it crashes when trying to load it 100% of the time.

Maybe they'll fix it. One day.

Quoting: SgtRomeo9I have to say I do find myself wondering more and more if Linux was on the same level as Windows; software, games, exposure and support wise. Where would Windows market share really be?

Look at the smartphone market. There is your answer.

Nice of them to give away NWN. It's an old game, but in some regards I still consider it the best game ever made. No other game ever came with such complete modding support. I lost count how many hours I spent in the game, really.

It was also one of the very, VERY few games to release -natively- for Linux back in the days and thus was absolutely groundbreaking for out platform. The "Bah, it's a Windows game!" naysayers here really have no clue what game they are bashing here.

Fallout 4. Both because it would be awesome to have on Linux and because I really don't expect it to happen.

I thought all you'd ever need to shove an asteroid out of the way was a nuke and Bruce Willis. oO

Oh well, it's up now. I guess I shouldn't check for new releases over my morning coffee. :D

Aaaand bought it.

The water physics were always a tad slow and felt off, btw. Probably a performance limitation?

Odd, it doesn't show up in Steam for me yet.

Civilization VI - Aspyr Media sounded positive about the port

Not lately. The latest news from Aspyr, they say it is no longer certain there will be a Linux port.

It still isn't certain if we are doing the linux port

They never said anything but that. I have no clue how many more months it will take them to have someone look into it. It can't take THAT long. Source code can be ported by definition and if it's a middleware issue, they wouldn't need THAT long to see if it's available for Linux or not. *sigh*

1. Civ V
2. Stellaris
3. Company of Heroes 2
4. Hearts of Iron IV
5. Age of Wonders III
6. Wargame: (European Escalation, AirLand, Red Dragon)
7. Pandora: First Contact
8. Europa Universalis IV
9. Civ: Beyond Earth
10. Any Total War game. :D

I played city builders since the days of the original SimCity, but I always play with disasters disabled. It's no fun building a great town just to have it partially destroyed every other hour. It feels like the little brother storming into your room and accidentally trashing your Lego castle. Yeah, it's realistic. But fun it is not.

But I suppose this was the last feature that EA pile of garbage still had going for it over Cities Skylines, so I can understand why they added it.

I'd rather get a proper dynamic seasons model down the road. :D

That all being said, I will buy the DLC anyway, just to support this great game.
