Valve makes adjustments to user reviews due to review bombing with 'histogram' charts
20 Sep 2017 at 10:36 am UTC

Most of the time, I'm not influenced by the review score. I have some games that I want to buy and others I find interesting or somebody from my friends recommended it to me.

I heard about this problem, but sometimes only thing you need is to look how many hours the person, who write the review, spent playing the game. For me it will be better to see the review from the person with most hours at the top.

Wine Staging 2.15 released with more Direct3D 11 improvements
24 Aug 2017 at 6:22 am UTC

I'm running a Windows VM at work and it's a painful experience every time I must work with it. It takes too many resources to just run, that running anything inside it is really annoying. But because most of the customers of our company are using software, that can't be run in the wine, the VM is a necessary evil.

At home I'm playing mostly native games and testing some games on wine to fill AppDB data for the once I maintain.

Quoting: razing32Hmm , at one point a Wine update broke my steam client so could not play the original Company of Heroes. Curios how it behaves in this new update.
Yes, the 2.11 broke the steam client. But this is already fixed in 2.12.

Quoting: michaBtw. for those with launcher problems (only on distributions we do not supported officially support to my knowledge). We now deploy the latest client without the launcher to this URL:

http://live.albiononline.com/clients/albion-online-fullgame-linux.zip [External Link]

Of course that means you have to manually re-download it every time we deploy a new version/patch.
There is also flatpak package which could be installed using these commands:
flatpak --user remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak --user install flathub com.albiononline.AlbionOnline

SAELIG, a strategy, role-playing, simulation, and trading game will come to Linux

The concept seems similar to The Guild II. Which for me is one of the best games I ever played. Sad it has so many bugs.

I will see how the SÆLIG will look when released.
