interactive fiction (a fancy way to say: Visual Novel)
...Not really? Interactive Fiction is usually a fancy way to say Text Adventure, but has been applied to things like Twines and Visual Novels as well.

Quoting: BeamboomI may be ignorant now, but surely the "visual novels" must conceptually be one of the simplest "games" to make?
Yes, you are ignorant.

Seems like Feral Interactive may have a few surprises for Linux in 2020

Quite frankly, I doubt The Outer Worlds will ever come to Linux, via Feral or otherwise. Same for Cyberpunk 2077.

I'm still a bit miffed they migrated off their own FLOSS engine to Unity

I can seriously recommend Analogue: A Hate Story and Hate Plus (which is a sequel/prequel, and should be played after the first one).

I guess I can also recommend Ladykiller in a Bind, but that one's a bit more...specific :P

Dead End Job? Eh, I already have one of those

Humble Monthly will be changing to Humble Choice later this year

Quoting: g000hI'm all for choice, if it is actually there. If the top tier just gives you all 10 games, and you have no choice, then that sucks.
I'm completely the other way.

The way I was assuming this would work is: there's 10 new games each month. Classic tier gets to keep all 10. Premium would keep 9, and so needs to select one game to not get.

And I would hate that. Knowing I'd have to decide to not get one of the offered games, month after after, would destroy me. Yes, might be that for some months, there would be a game I'm completely not interested in or already have or whatnot. But I'd be wagering on that, and that's just anxiety-inducing. I would just not subscribe to this at all.

Since I am a current subscriber, if Classic then gets me 10 games, I'd be okay with that. Though I'm fearing the day they'll drop that completely.

If it's now, as some have suggested, a roaster of games bigger than 10 each month... Yeah, I'm out.
