Just picked this up. Arcen games automatically demand my money and attention :-)

The Elder Scrolls VI: Linux Exclusive :-)

The RPG 'Battle Chasers: Nightwar' has finally officially launched on Linux

On Steam at £9.99 this weekend so I've picked it up. Played about 3 hours so far and am very impressed at what is probably my first 'RPG' of this genre. Graphics are gorgeous and the mechanics seem easy to understand at the moment.

One strange thing is that I was originally intending to play with my Logitech F710 but could not successfully redefine the left stick and D-pad via Steam. For some reason left-stick up still produced the D-pad up action.

Still, it seems easier to play with keyboard and mouse anyway :-)

Played the demo some time ago and was impressed. Today I bit the bullet and bought the game and - three battles in - I'm not disappointed. The stats and levelling systems took a bit of getting used to, but the game's very enjoyable so far.

This is now priced at GBP1.69 on Steam, with a free map pack DLC. I'm wondering whether to get it or not..?

Quoting: GustyGhostIt's kind of like ARK except the developers actually know what they are doing.
I laughed out loud at this and my missus gave me a funny look :-)

Violent twin-stick shooter 'Hatred' is now officially out for Linux

Quoting: g000hCurrently, 76% off on GreenManGaming [External Link]. Hmmm, maybe worth a punt.

Anyone finding it broken or problematic on Linux?
I haven't played it for a while, but I found no major problem with the game on my system. Some of the workshop mods didn't work at the time but that may be fixed now.

Quite a good shooter and nowhere near as controversial as its infamy might suggest :-)

What are you playing this weekend?

Hoping for some Turok 2 time this evening :-)

Turok 2: Seeds of Evil now has a beta available for Linux gamers
21 Jul 2018 at 1:21 am UTC

I owned the first game on Steam, and was pleased to be offered a discount of 25% when purchasing Turok 2. Much to my wife's dismay I have been playing this solid for hours this evening :-)

With regards to the comments about GOG, I personally feel we shouldn't look a gift-penguin in the mouth and appreciate that these games are available via any distribution service. We are already buying copies of commercial games without the source code, so using Steam's DRM doesn't seem that much of an issue!
