Apotheon Now In Open Beta For Linux, Some Thoughts
8 Feb 2015 at 6:41 pm UTC

Quoting: KeizgonYes, I never really found the appeal for super realistic games, especially when they seem to be so prevalent. I don't hate them, but my ability to relate between them becomes a little faceless (IE: first person perspectives). I apologize if I offended someone else's enjoyment in them, but this is strictly my subjective opinion, which in no way affects anybody's interest in them.

I would love to play a good game with cartoony-cel shaded art. I been looking though, and it seems that its mostly Japanese developers (who don't care much for Linux, or in Nintendo's case, PC entirely) who even make such things. If you played something like this that's for Linux, I would love to know! :)
borderlands 2 is cartoony cel shading.

Steam is a form of DRM. One I don't have a problem with but now that we have gog too people that hate DRM can still support Linux gaming which benefits everyone here.

GOG Announces 20+ LucasArts Classics To Release On The Digital Platform

Quoting: BlobWell, nothing really new since they already run fine in ScummVM but I guess it's nice to have a stand alone installer
Exactly what I was thinking. They didn't do anything except release two out of many scummvm games that we've had on Linux for a long time. I played Sam and Max in Linux in 2010. So far I'm disappointed with the gog Linux games for the most part. Might as well release frozen bubble too.

Quoting: sevThis is not happening to me at all. What am I doing right?
You mean you dont have random game folders all over the place? If so than you just havent installed a lot of games or at least not ones that make folders all over. Or you're not noticing it.

GOG Employee Explains Where Galaxy Is At Currently

This is not a bad thing at all. I like steam and gog and humble, I mainly use steam cause other than steam itself I have not seen any linux games with third party drm. But if gog can push out linux versions of the older games that they used to focus on, I would buy most of them. I love those early 90's DOS games. The more linux games and clients the better I would say, esp since now the steam haters can enjoy games too.
