The ridiculously large Stardew Valley 1.4 update is out

Quoting: PangaeaI sent an email directly to the developer to ask about this. Partly to inform about the lack of a GOG Linux build in case he wasn't aware of it, and partly in a hope that he can do something to make this happen on GOG's end. It's very frustrating. Time and time again :( Perhaps Eric has 2000 emails and won't get through it until mid-January, but it was worth a shot.

If it was possible to buy and download the game directly from the developer I'd probably just do that instead to be honest. No more problems.
1.4 is released on GOG for Linux now!

Just gonna say that Dungeons 3 is really fun! I very much recommend it.

Quoting: TcheyCould be nice, however it smells like a tablet/phone game, according to the GUI, number of skills on screen etc. And that's for me never a good sign for gameplay and depth.
Action RPG's don't typically have tons of abilities though.

Looks like a pleasant surprise. I'd probably never play this style of game solo, so I hope their multiplayer includes co-op. And, how will it stack against Last Epoch?

Quoting: PangaeaIt has been a full day since this was released everywhere, and still GOG hasn't bothered to make it available to us Linux users. I'm so fecking fed up of being treated like a rat by those guys. Like I just wrote over there, they should be very, very glad there are no real competitors for those of us who care about DRM Free games (since humble bundle is just a glorified steam key reseller now).
I'm happy for what GOG has done, but yeah, there should be a lot more. For that reason, I really wish more of the bigger games would get released to itch.io. Too much work for devs to release yet another build? Well, skip GOG then. itch.io has a decent client for Linux. It's much better than having to go to the GOG website and look at your library for updates and then download THE WHOLE GAME just to apply a patch. So yeah, I've become a fan of itch.io. It just needs more popular games.

EDIT: GOG's poor Linux support makes me appreciate the Steam distribution system. You know that you can release DRM-free games via Steam as well. It's just not the norm.

GOG has the Windows and Mac builds updated to 1.4 but not Linux yet. I (and my kids!) eagerly await! My eldest really wants separated money. Haha.

Dota 2 just got massive overhaul with The Outlanders Update

These changes are so big, it's almost like a sequel! Definitely a major release!

I feel like I have to try it out now. :)

Quoting: chrSorry, neither DDG nor Google is being helpful in this. What currency is that? Also I presume "450,00" is 450 money units, but I wouldn't be surprised for cultural differences and 45000 actually.
Google hints me to Brazilian Real. 450 of those would be close to 100 Euros...!
My guess is Rupee or potentially Ruble.

Quoting: 14EDIT: I wonder why I can't put more than 1 controller in my cart and save on shipping. That's really annoying.
I think I read somewhere that it was a limitation in their store software. What they should have done (and I suggested this to them years ago) was create a couple of bundles, 2x controllers, 3x controllers, 4x controllers, that would have solved everything (well from my perspective anyway).
Agree, just like some of the co-op game bundles. Since they don't have that, I spent $42 for $15 worth of merchandise.

It's still a steal in this case, but it feels really inefficient and makes me wish they'd sell the controllers in brick and mortar stores.

That Shadow of the Tomb Raider bundle is amazing! You essentially get the game on sale + all the DLC for free on top of it.

And the Steam Controller... no brainer at that price.

That was probably the point. :P
