I agree with what others said, especially Purple Library Guy (who's surprised?).

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualOut of curiosity, what justification would you accept?Honestly: none. But this one is particularly selfish I think. Plus I don't believe your software have to be proprietary to have "exclusive right to commercial exploitation". You can make money from Free Software, and that's not necessarily a bad thing...

Not open source, so not interested... And the reasons given, seems too much selfish for me.

Quoting: hardpenguinSo, same as LoL, but I never played Dota so I can't say which is worse.I actually played a couple of games with a friend on the new map recently, and it was surprisingly a really great time. The map definitely feels a whole lot better now and the game works really great on Linux too.Yeah playing with friends, preferably a full team of five is preferable. Unless you don't mind the toxicity...

Quoting: scaineAlso, big shout out for Defender's Quest 2 [External Link]. Sadly, the demo is Windows only, but the developer did do native for the first, so I have high hopes.Oh! More than 10 years after the first one, which was great! I'll keep an eye on it thanks, and hope for a Linux native too!

Quoting: slaapliedjeI'm hoping Diablo 2 eventually gets the same treatment. Mainly because playing it on one of my Amigas would just be sweet.You don't how hard I'm crossing my fingers for this! :grin:

Quoting: sourpuzAh shit, here we go again...Quoting: InstallProblem is, GOG's Linux installers are obsolete and haven't been updated in years, as GOG has officially stopped supporting Linux. Lots of the installers don't work. I mostly use the Windows versions via Lutris/Wine.Quoting: 14Too many Windows games. GOG doesn't help make playing Windows games on Linux easy in any way.Just scroll down and use the filter for linux games only.

Nova Roma is a new city-builder from the Kingdoms and Castles developer

Thought I played a lot Zeus and Pharaoh, but not this one even though I have it in my collection.

Quoting: benstor214Don't forget Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom, quoting Wikipedia:Quoting: Purple Library GuyY'know, so many of these non-modern city builder things are vaguely medieval that it had never even occurred to me--architecture wise, Rome was so much cooler for this kind of thing.Well, there is Caesar I-III (and Pharaoh/Cleopatra, Zeus/Poseidon) or more recently Nebuchadnezzar… also Builders of Egypt/Greece/China. Lastly the Pharaoh remake “New Era”.
Frankly, I can’t say anything to which is architecturally the most appealing as that is highly subjective.
Emperor is the last of the series to use the same 2D-sprite game engine as seen in the earlier titles, and the first to introduce a multiplayer option.It's only available on GOG!

From the GOL homepage, I though it was an engine reimplementation of Zeus: Master of Olympus, but no. :cry:
