A bit off topic, but one of the games from the humble bundle "Blackguards 2" downloaded for me in Linux, although it says failed to start game (invalid app config).

Hell yeah! Linux needs some games like this. I would also like a deer hunter game as well. I dont hunt in real life, but i do love how sneaky and stealthy you need to be.

My System Specs.

Linux Mint 17.2 64Bit Cinnamon Edition
Intel Core i5-4690K CPU @ 3.50GHZ x 4
G-Skill 16GB DDR3 PCI 1600
Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 4GB (Nvidia Driver ver. 355.06) Single Monitor.

Settings on Very High.

The menu runs at 60FPS, all menu features work well. The prologue with the Virtual Simulator ran at 60FPS with no hiccups. When i got into the game with the real map loaded, my FPS shot down to it's lowest of 37FPS, but usually stayed around 46 - 55 FPS. There were some slight stutters while turning to look in different directions, but they eventually cleared up. Sound worked very well. Had no real issues with it. Seem's perfectly playable on my system at least. I have not been in any big fire fights yet, so i dont know how the performance will be during that.
