Quoting: GuestExactly! But to me it often works in the other directon. There are plenty of high-budget games which are easy to finish in like 4 hours. And so many low-budget (indie?) games with tons of content and/or good replayablity (like Dungeons of Dredmor, FTL)Quoting: hardpenguinI really dislike this border being set between AAA and indie. It is constantly changing to the favor of indie games, however how can one be this limited to play only AAA games? Because superior graphics?This is not only about graphics, but also the amount of content, polish, playability… It’s the difference between Ravensword and Gothic, for example.

I really dislike this border being set between AAA and indie. It is constantly changing to the favor of indie games, however how can one be this limited to play only AAA games? Because superior graphics? Even if patterns of those games are all repetitive? You can grab nice 2D title instead and have really looong hours of fun.
Games are games. People should choose fun ones instead of those that are most visually appealing.
But I guess GOL readers already know it :)

I am actually looking forward to other classics ported with Wine, wasn't TopWare saying something about that? There will be GOG.com in few months so I guess I'll be happy if I'll just wait a little bit more :)

That's annoying how Broken Sword series isn't available on Steam. Apart from this, a brilliant bundle (I also love the current weekly, you have to get NEO Scavenger!).

They are inspired by Organ Trail which is inspired by Oregon Trail... Hello to the creativity!
Actually I am a big fan of Organ Trail and I think that classy, simplistic pixel look is better than poor 3D look like in this game. Also, what kind of recreation is that? Is 'oregon-trail' a new genre of game?
I still wish them best luck...

Ahhh, I remember visiting #rwr on Quakenet and nagging pasik, the RWR developer about Linux port :)
I totally support this one, it is hella entertaining, especially with friends, I played it quite much few versions ago. And the dev is a great guy really, always open and supporting towards community.

The Castle Doctrine Released On Steam For Linux With Source Code Access

Quoting: IlyaI am not saying that having source code is bad. I am saying that developer doesn't distribute Linux binaries (at least he did not til the Steam release). What kind of support is that? There are non-technical gamers among Linux users too. It is not like each one of us is compliling kernels all day long.Quoting: hardpenguinI wanted to get it few months ago directly from game website, but I think that idea of distributing Linux version as sources in form to compile by yourself is rather silly in 2013 and now 2014.I think it's rather nice to have the Source Code as well...
