No Man's Sky has been shown to work rather well in Wine on Linux
18 Aug 2016 at 11:48 am UTC

I'm having trouble starting the game with wine. I've created a 64-bit wineprefix and followed the usual steps to install the game but keep getting the R6025 error. I've installed the VC packages using winetricks but there must be something else that I am missing.

What have you been playing recently and how is it?

Have just finished Life is Strange and thought it was great; rather different to my usual choice of games. I chose the selfish ending :-)

Currently playing Broforce (great fun) and Risk of Rain (horrible controls). Have also been playing the original Serious Sam via Wine. This will keep me going until I can play Doom :-)

Goat Simulator is just as stupid as this. As Liam said, amusing for five minutes, then you never touch it again. And if you do, whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?
I have 183 hours in Goat Simulator, but I'm not sure about this horse game!

Somehow I cant connect those 3 to have sense
The beta has been around for some weeks. Presumably Ethan Lee did the work on the beta?

Regardless, it's a very good game though I am rubbish at killing the first boss :-)

I've just tried playing the demo under Wine, but there are some DX11 dependencies and all I get is the company logo and then a white screen!

The impressive 2D cyberpunk action-RPG Dex is now DRM free on GOG
18 Jun 2016 at 5:01 pm UTC

I enjoyed playing Dex, but as I've always been a fan of 2D platformers it really hit the spot.

The gameplay actually reminded me of the old Superior Software title Spycat :-)

Only complaint about the game was the rather short play time.

Want to play Morrowind natively on Linux using OpenMW? Well it's on sale on GOG

Does anyone else have trouble with the main Morrowind menu screen being purple? I am using OpenSUSE 42.1 and have a GTX 970 with the latest drivers installed.
