it's an attempt to blend aspects of The Witness and Talos Principle

Quoting: scaineI like to support developers who support Linux. But I just can't bring myself to play this genre of games. I bought Stellaris in the hope that I could get into it, but it's just not for me.

Quoting: scaineI'm properly delighted to hear that they're supporting Linux. I'm just gutted that, along with City Skylines, Tropico and nearly every Warhammer tactical/strategy game ever, I won't be part of the support effort.

Really gutted. But I'll bet for every sale of this franchise, there's a 100 people that are gutted when the next FPS or RPG/Action title launches natively.

Them's the breaks, I suppose. Can't support everyone.

Famous poet John Lydgate: "You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all the people all of the time"... god we're so fickle, eh? :)

Quoting: PatolaYou recommend playing a game for having no fun? Can you expand on this?

This War of Mine is not a fun game. If you think games must be fun, walk away and pretend this doesn't exist.

TWM is a harrowing, depressing experience which puts you in a war torn city, with a small group of truly ordinary citizens. A math professor, a football player, a fireman, a thief, a gourmet chef...

One of the very first things you realize is you are not playing this to win. This is war and war is hell, there is no winning. You are simply trying to survive, to keep on going for one more day at a time, hoping for better times.

You start out in a heavily damaged house, with holes in the walls and barely any food or materials. Over time you try to improve your living conditions, by making beds, chairs, stoves etc. If you are lucky, maybe you can make some rain water collectors, or maybe even a moonshine distillery?

As the days pass and the war keeps raging on, resources become scarce and everyone, the military, militia and even ordinary citizens become more and more violent and depraved, all in the name of survival. Whereas you could trade a few gems for a ton of supplies in the early days, you could end up trading your shotgun for a few pieces of rat meat in the cold and unforgiving winter...

In a world where we are all too quick to dismiss the wars in the Middle East or Ukraine with "not my problem", turn down asylum seekers based on our prejudices of race, religion and ethnicity, This War of Mine provides us (especially the Western audience) with a fresh perspective and maybe even a lesson in humanity...
