Action RPG Victor Vran updated with an interesting Dynamic Resolution graphical option, local co-op coming soon

The dynamic resolution works pretty good. I set it to 30-FPS, and it really smoothed out my experience.

Armello, the really fun strategy game has a new DLC with more characters

Armello is a fantastic game wth a top-notch presentation. Not perfect but very, very good. My only criticism is that there's not much to do "off-turn" other than look for opportunities to use some of your cards. Otherwise, you're just sitting and waiting for other players to finish their turns so you can play again. Thankfully you can put the AI on fast-turns which makes the game go much faster, but this is obviously not an option when you're playing with other humans. Other than that, it's very fun. I keep hoping League of Geeks will address this shortcoming with a future expansion.

I'll definitely give the new characters a try once I get some cash.

When will developers learn you can't fund a game based on early access sales?

Quoting: liju
Quoting: Pangachat(thanks god Victor Vran local coop incoming :D ).
Do You maybe have any more info on this? I was one of the ppl requesting local coop from devs and I know they have several times stated they are working on it, but it was soo long ago. No new info so far so I guessed they just resign from local coop for this game..
Developer is saying mid-September.

Quoting: wolfyrionpfft... just install a rolling release distro...
I cant imagine myself working with a non rolling release distro. Once you experienced it you will never go back to ubuntu like distros...
I used to be a massive fan of Gentoo. Even ran GentooX on the original Xbox back in the day. These days I just run Debian and have started to use GuixSD, although I am thinking of toying with Parabola also since I backed the EOMA68.
Gentoo is fun, but needing hours to update KDE is a bit of a pain. Once I tried Kubuntu and realized how painless updates were, I never looked back.

Quoting: hardpenguinNow that we all admitted SteamOS is dead, can we get our Tux logo back on Steam store pages? ;)
The irony, of course, is that if SteamOS goes away then, in all likelihood, so does Linux, at least as far as Valve's grand experiment in gaming is concerned.

Stellaris 1.3 patch 'Heinlein' will overhaul Fallen Empires in an awesome way, also new DLC info

As one developer once said, the formula for making the perfect game is surprisingly simple: all you need are infinite time and infinite resources.

I love the idea of SteamOS, but there's really no reason to use it on the desktop.

So that's three substantive patches that most any other developer would have sold as DLC. This is why I love Paradox.

Their help pages mentioned some recovery option that would reset SteamOS, but that doesn't seem to exist if you do the advanced install method (as I had multiple drives with other things on).
Isn't the advanced install method essentially unsupported?
