Streaming games to your phone? Yes please!

Well, it might work well with action games with a minimal interface like Tomb Raider or Mad Max, but it will be useless for interface intensive games like anything by Paradox, or RPGs.

Wish it was more than just a shooter. With visuals like that, there should be opportunities to explore and enjoy the scenery.

They're not going to sell many at that price, especially not from an unproven developer.

So all I have to say is "I love DRM free games!" and I'm in? Sure thing, boss.

Looking forward to the new Kubuntu update, too.

Loot-based action RPG with time travel 'Last Epoch' will be on Linux

Quoting: 14Diablo 3 killer? I guess I didn't know we were waiting for one.

Well, I have been. I just haven't found anything that's as fun and addictive as Diablo 3. Torchlight 2 isn't bad. Victor Vran has its charm. But Diablo 3 is the one I keep returning to.

Quoting: hercPerformance is not that great when there are multiple enemies on screen at the same time, dipped down to about 15 fps at some point.

I noticed that in the video. Performance looked marginal. But it is still in development, so hopefully they'll get things sorted out in time for release.

It otherwise looks pretty decent. Maybe we'll finally get our native Linux Diablo 3 killer.

Campo Santo, developer of Firewatch has joined Valve

Can we can talk about the possibility of Valve releasing new games? I'm excited because as someone who once used Steam on OSX and bought a Steam Controller, I got the "Sorry the Steam Controller didn't work on OSX, so here's all of our games, past, present, and future, for free" deal. I thought I'd never get to make use of it for anything but Valve's back catalog.

The developer of Helium Rain gave an update on their sales, low overall sales but a high Linux percentage
22 Apr 2018 at 2:16 pm UTC

Wait, they're complaining about low sales, yet they're still in "early access"? Do developers even understand what "early access" is?

I haven't played this game in a long time. Did they ever address the performance issues?
