What have you been playing recently and what do you think of it?

Chroma Squad.

I was a little iffy about it at first - I tend to dislike Japanese pop culture (my tolerance for 'wierd for no reason' is really low), I was just getting too old for Power Rangers when they first hit so I only watched like the first season of the first series, and I am not a fan of games going for the retro console aesthetic unless there's a good reason for it. But I love turn-based combat and it kept piling up good reviews so I am finally getting around to it. And I frickin love it.

I'm still not comfortable supporting this. While I appreciate that he apologized for his colossal screw-up, I am just not sure I buy that said apology wasn't just damage control after the backlash started.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive introduces a Battle Royale mode, goes free to play

Played 4 games. Topped out at 3rd place. Not too shabby for someone who has never played CS:GO before. I really enjoyed it. Honestly Fortnite has never looked good to me because I like my shooters stealthy and methodical, like Hitman, instead of arcadey. This felt exactly like what I want out of a Battle Royale: Brutal but approachable, and with no crafting.

If anything is going to make me break down and invest in VR, it's going to be something very similar to this.

Book of Demons no longer getting a native Linux port, developer plans on 'supporting' Steam Play (updated)

Gotta be honest, as long as I can play the game on my system without having to worry about a Windows partition or mucking about with Wine, I am happy.

The Steam Hardware Survey for October 2018 shows a small drop for Linux, a look at daily and monthly active users
2 Nov 2018 at 12:31 pm UTC

Quoting: JarnoThat survey thing is weird, shouldn't it notice if hardware changes?
Yesterday I got new PC and I did just put my old hard drives in it, fixed bootmanager, started using it and steam didn't pop up that survey.

I'm not sure what triggers it. I had a survey pop up a few weeks ago and hadn't change a darn thing.

Well, there's one game to take off my wishlist. It was getting too long anyway.

Throne of Lies, the amusing online game of deceit has an anniversary patch and sale (come win a key)

Enjoying the game very much but the tutorial did not prepare me at all! Lol

My first game I got possessed on the first night and never did quite figure out what was happening for the rest of the game.
