The RPG 'Pathfinder: Kingmaker' is out with critical bugs in the Linux version
7 Oct 2018 at 10:01 pm UTC

I've been running it under windows without issue so far, however I'm only just starting the kingdom building part. Haven't had time to download and install under Linux because my SSD is filling up, need to schedule a upgrade sometime.

Surprised we haven't seen a 'XCOM3: Terror from the depths' game announcement.

There is Phoenix Point, that's going to be great.

Survival management game 'Sheltered' gains a new free scenario named Stasis

Nice, however sadly planets and space in our solar system are much more hostile to life then a nuclear ridden Earth would be.

The closest system is around 8-9 light years away (Alpha Cent.) which would take at least 100-150 years with conventional & ion rocket technology so a STASIS chamber would certainly be needed for the passengers.

So I guess the naming of this update suits well :)

Maybe people should make sure they can afford kids before having them also? :)

Not like the planet is running out of people anytime soon is it?

I wonder if we will be able to fly around systems and planets or if its going to be another space as a small level loading simulator thing? probably the later.

Sci-fi single-player survival game Planet Nomads is currently pretty broken on Linux

The move to single player has kinda put this on the unpopular list for many people.

I bought the game when it said it was multiplayer so kinda got conned. No doubt it will just get a forced broken alpha release at some stage just like starforge did... terrible, wish I could get my money back!

Both skyrimse and fallout4 have sound cut out or similar issues which you can read up about extensively on the winehq database (fallout4 has most comments). We have been trying to figure out a real solution for ages now but without much luck.

I don't believe CSMT is a nvidia compatible feature!

The developer of 'Limit Theory' is throwing in the towel, releasing the source code

It will be interesting to see if it can be compiled and loaded up like in the fashion of his dev blobs to take a look at things or if its completely broken and missing executable components to even launch. I think the editing and dev work was done in engine.

In reality this sort of game needed a 500k-1million backing and at least 2-3 people working on it full time if not more.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPNot sure Unreal or Unity couldn't do what Limit Theory attempted.
I don't believe these engines have baked in procedural engines like what was attempted in LT, they need lots of custom coding and work to get them to function in such a way.
