System Shock remake gets a brand new flashy trailer

Quoting: AnzaDeus Ex though quite soon took immersive sims to whole another level.
Luckily it wasn't last of its kind, but there's not too many immersive sims out there.
Can you recommend some other games that are similar?

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II arrives on Steam 'this Summer' with Linux support
11 Jun 2022 at 7:54 pm UTC

Quoting: CyrilSo I start to hope a bit we can see this dev to port more games in the future on Linux/macOS.
Looks like it's the same group that remastered the original Wasteland game, and the Bard's Tale ARPG:

Not sure why they only take credit for the console ports of Dark Alliance on their website, when Steam says it was them.

Humble has some great goodies in the Capcom Summer Bundle and Humble Choice

Quoting: EhvisCan anybody still find the "pause" or "skip" option for Humble Choice? I can't find it. Dug it up from my browser history though and it still works.
They did make it harder to find, and got rid of the "remind me before time is up" option. They also removed the "tell us why you are pausing" question - I guess they don't care any more (or got overwhelmed with the volume of complaints).

Quoting: mr-victoryThe title is unclear, it has both "verified" and "playable".
Perhaps "confirmed 'Playable' on Steam Deck" would be less confusing?

Not sure what rules there might be; Fanatical for instance has no problem listing "Steam Deck Support: Verified"

Save loads on tons of games in the Humble Store Spring Sale

That subscriber discount used to be nice when it didn't reset when you paused; it's not incentive enough to not pause when the selection for the month is poor, which it has been lately.

Beautiful looking puzzle-adventure Sonority releases May 25

Quoting: EhvisIt looks very good, but this bit worries me:
Interesting new puzzle mechanic based on melodies.
So far, I've had to resort to walkthroughs for every game that had note/melody based puzzles.
Agreed; I'm not musically inclined at all, so I always struggle on those.

Society management city-builder Kapital: Sparks of Revolution is out now

Looks like it could be a fun game if they manage to fix the issues.

Absolute classic Seven Kingdoms: Ancient Adversaries gets a new upgrade

The fedora repo has 2.15.4p1, so I imagine it will update to 2.15.5 soon enough.

Sorry Arch (EndeavourOS), it's not working out any more and hello Fedora

Quoting: Liam DaweSomewhere I followed a wrong command, didn't pay enough attention, stuff got removed that shouldn't and it all died. It was a learning experience
You have to watch out for those embedded 'sudo rm -rf /' suggestions. ;-P
