What have you been playing recently and how is it?

I upgraded my PC on Monday and started Epistory last night (thanks in part to watching GOL's stream of it) - what a fantastic game! So engaging and so beautiful, and the difficulty's just right to keep me always pushing a little harder. I've also been playing too much Guild Wars 2 through PlayOnLinux, now with decent graphics :)

Quoting: ziabiceBefore that I played "Divinity: Original Sin" for 40 hours then got bored: really great combat system, not so great story. I played it under Windows because the Linux port doesn't work with Mesa + radeonsi.
I somehow poured 70 hours into that game before giving up on it for the same reason (although I also found combat tedious after a while). Fortunately it was gifted to me.

Looks like a game that could interest me, but I'm no wizard so I couldn't do much more than tell them whether or not it works on my system and send crash reports.

I very nearly backed this back then, I'll probably give it a shot when it goes free to play even though I prefer to play board games on a table.

Every time Microsoft does something wrong/stupid, I get a little excited. They've already pushed three people to ask me to install some flavor of Linux on their computers, simply because they know I use it rather than Windows and don't really have any complaints about it. If the Windows 10 bullshit keeps going, I suspect I'll get a couple more "converts" in due time.

I should probably feel sorry for the people getting abused by Microsoft who don't know better and don't have a practical way out, but I'm just too happy about Microsoft driving more and more Linux adoption.
