I have been exposed to 4k desktop and gaming for too long to use VR, it would be like hot knife into my eyeballs having my face pressed up against a shitty stretched 1200p screen!
Buy games from G2A? You should just stop already, tinyBuild lost out on approx $450K of sales

I didn't know G2A was such a problem. Thought 'most' the keys were just bought as surplus/steamsale or from different countries for cheaper.
I did know that there were scammers selling keys on G2A as I have received a couple in the past, but didn't know the problem was of this magnitude. I'll definitely stop buying stuff from them in the future. Thought here in Australia it's quite hard to buy from official chains, the prices are pretty high IMO, generally I just wait for the yearly sales.
Starting to get annoyed with expansions that cost more than the original title..

Soon we will start seeing more 5k and 8k monitors in use. Also is anyone using a 4096 x 2160 pixel screen? DCI standard or something, are those wider?

Sort of reminds me of some sort of ANT colony/survival game. Decent effort, not sure on the whole skeleton warrior thing.

This game is only 650mb, quite a small download. I have the GOG version, never got into it, seems its got no story telling and is just a corp esp based game.
The only really negative I have ready about it is being difficult to control all the units due to real-time setup, there is no pause button in this game apparently so you don't get much chance to adjust to situations.

Nice, I will wait for a good 1440p solution, I like the Open format better. So far this closed garden setup Rift has going is a bit annoying, developers need to STOP THAT!
It would also be viable for a company to take a 4k screen(s) for VR and just render stuff in 1200-1440p via downscale. That will solve performance and the fidelity problem considerably. (not cost unfortunately)

The RX480 should bring some new life to the steam-machine push. Hopefully AMD can sort out some good official drivers with the pro series before then so SteamOS can be a THING..
Things I feel Valve need to address to help SteamOS really be something fantastic

Yeah allot of MAINSTREAM games are still not on Linux, even some older ones which have HUGE followings like Skyrim etc are holding people back from steam.
It doesn't help that driver vendors don't flesh out their drivers fast enough under Linux, sure progress gets made but it needs to be made ALLOT faster IMO.

Picked up X Rebirth for 75% off, will wait for expansions to go on sale also.
GOG has Linux as a platform option on their website. Thats good enough for now, the galaxy app is still in beta.

What have you been playing on Linux recently and what do you think about it?

In between hitting my car with a sledge hammer and swearing at it(backyard mechanic here), I have been playing mostly Warthunder as of late, I did just recently finish Metro Last Light, good game that, thought some of the missions are confusing as to what you must do...
