Confessing my continued love of the Steam Controller, a few years after release

Another great thing is that it works perfectly with a generic mini-USB cable. If your batteries ran out you can switch to the cable and continue playing.

New Borderlands 2 DLC is on the way called Commander Lilith & The Fight For Sanctuary

Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: rkfgYeah, this is very unexpected considering they're making BL3. BL2 was released in 2012, 7 years ago, and they STILL make DLCs! That's a Paradox level of dedication I admit. Hopefully it will be ported/whitelisted (aren't DLCs just content by definition? They shouldn't need porting technically) by Aspyr shortly.
It all depends if the base game needs updating to accommodate any new possible features. Since we're already behind on patches, it might not work unless Aspyr get the update out first.
This might explain the high definition textures DLC delay. Aspyr sure knew this story DLC is in the works so they might've waited to update the base game and push all this in one go.

Interstellar Transport Company releases with Linux support, build a galactic transportation empire

Looks cool, I watched the tutorial and bought it as I love complex economy games. However, there's a literally BIG issue with planet selection cursor, reported here [External Link]. Unfortunately, this has been reported long ago and still not fixed. Hope I provided enough information to change that.

Mind Your Manas looks like a very silly moddable online trading card game releasing next month

This looks suspiciously close to Artifact. They mention minions (=creeps), there are arrows on the cards that show where it attacks and you can hit the opponent only if the card is unblocked in that direction. Pretty interesting! My only wish is that art and sounds could be so much better (instead of the "programmer's art") and more "thematic", although I understand the game's main point is to allow any theme. Still, some core has to be there.

I wonder how moddability works with collection nature of the game. Should there be a central server that accounts for all the cards, XP, money etc. you have?

Easy Anti-Cheat are apparently "pausing" their Linux support, which could be a big problem (updated)

That's an Epic bait&switch, yeah. I was so happy when Linux became supported in UE4 (including the Editor!) and now it's all slowly but steadily going away. *slow clap*

Facepunch Studios have given an update on the future of Rust for Linux, issues with "third parties"

Yeah, if the community is as small as they say it would be easy and inexpensive for them to refund the game and call it a day. Am I right?

This game will never be free of bugs.

Oh well, thanks for the info. Will wait for either performance fixes or until it's confirmed to work on Proton with better FPS (or worse lol).
