There's VCMI [External Link] - but it seems to be a stalled project.

Getting homm3 instead of homm2 so I can use fheros2

Quoting: anewsonI've been playing the 3rd one with an HD patch, but every time I see news on this cool project I regret my choice

Quoting: redneckdrowI've had this game on my wish list for some time, but after seeing the preview image I may remove it.

Seeing someone get sprayed with vomit that looks like literal $#%^ is a bit too gross.:sick:

The aptly named Good Old Games Week runs from April 29 - May 9.

Last time I checked, a week ran for seven days. As such, I would be hesitant to call it aptly named ;)

Quoting: GuestFrom a couple of months ago on an AMA:

From that wording, GNU/Linux won't have a native release (no surprises there).

It's a bit of a surprise there, or should I say disappointment, since Northgard did have a Linux native version, in which one could play-through the whole campaign, and also multiplayer, in what seems, from my own experience, fully cross-platform multiplayer, with pretty decent amount of players online to play with.

And there are not many other games out there, which check all those points.

Yes, Northgard works perfectly natively (and it is ridiculously light - look at the requirements, 1GB of RAM). Multiplayer works cross-platform with Windows, but not with console or mobile afaik. And they are using the same engine, which they make, so they have the know-how and at least some old code they could use.

Honestly, considering how they were willing to port Northgard to absolutely every platform they could, how they work hard on keeping system reqs low, how they open-sourced their engine and created their own language, and how chill they seem to be... I think they will at least give some actual, serious consideration to the native port in the future. (As opposed to the canned, non-committal response most studios give). No surprise that Linux native isn't available during Early Access, and with Proton how it is might not be worth their time to do a whole new version for such an ambitious project... but then, if/when they are working on other ports it might just be worth it anyway.
