Seems the Linux version of Cossacks 3 is not a myth, as I now have access

Shogun 2 is on sale at Humble Bundle for $7.99 i think. As well as all sega games, about ~75% off.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80
Quoting: m0nt3Is the Single Player worth it?
do you like rts mixed with grand strat if the answer is yes then yes if not then no simple as that the extra dlc makes unit and starting location changes but its still more total war.

edit after all the clues of made to wade its Shogun 2, didnt think it was SW2

made to wade is still on feral radar and this is not it. made to wade will likely be dawn of war 3.

Quoting: m0nt3Meh. Was really hoping for something different.
really? the main problem with DoW3 has been that it's so different ...aka its not the "DoW1 or DoW2 remake" that the fan group wanted, but we got "yet" another new RTS gameplay style which is really just a mix of both + some borrowed elements of other games.
I have never played a Total War or Dawn of War game. Just don't really have an interest. It seems we have been getting a lot of these games/genre lately. Still hoping to see shadow of war or rise of the tomb raider.
fair enough you dont care/like about RTS, but you have to keep in mind that RTS and mmo(rpg/fps) are popular on PC when those games you mentioned are more popular on consoles than on PC...I do also like to see other games, like I would love to see NieR : Automata on linux...I already have it on my PS4pro..and I love it :D
I want to see more RPG's. Would love to see Final Fantasy get a port. I have been playing through the Baldurs Gate Games. Loved PoE and Tyranny. I am really hoping for a Nier port as well. Waiting on the Victor Vran DLC as well. I don't mind RTS, just not the biggest fan.

Linux gamers on Arch may want to hold off on updating due to openssl breaking some games (updated)

As much as I love Arch, I am thinking I may have to jump over to one of the *buntus.

Feral Interactive have released a new teaser for a Linux & Mac port to come

This makes me really consider switching distros. Been holding off on updates, but how long should I hold out on updates for this issue to be resolved.

Quoting: neowiz73looks like there's a bit more broken than just openssl, the update for GNOME to 3.24 dropped as well which apparently there are a number of extensions are broken beyond just updating the metadata.json.
Downgrading will break pacman and other parts that depend on the newer version. symlinking is about the only temp fix. but I don't like doing that and it's typically a bad idea.

Looks like I'll be distro hopping for a bit until this is sorted out.
That not what I want to hear. I just switched to gnome from KDE. Do you know what extensions are broken? I have held off updating my arch. I don't really want to roll a new distro, but I don't want to hvae to deal with these issues either.
