Some thoughts on Man O' War: Corsair, rough sailing and very little fun

A cash grab, just as most Warhammer games.
For every pearl in the franchise, like the Total War games or Vermintide, there seems to be at least a handful of... stuff like this.

Quoting: buenaventuraThe difficulty called "Surviaval" might need some attention :P
I like that the Russian devs implemented this Russian accent even in their UI! ;)

Quoting: Luke_NukemI read the whole article as "Iron Maiden"... Doh!
This comment made me realize it is NOT actually Iron Maiden :D
I was wondering the whole time how they got the license to use the name...
Do you think the band could enforce a game using that name, when the game makers could say it was just named after the torture device [External Link]and not the band? I mean, that's where the band got their name, and I'm sure they didn't pay anything..
It all depends on how bored the lawyer is ;)

Slay the Spire fuses together a roguelike with a card game, it's rather fun

Quoting: ErzfeindHave you created a bug report? Not sure if I encountered that issue. In the meantime I'd switch to windowed, which works fine for a card game.
I did. And then refunded.
And then added it back to my wishlist. I'll just wait for the game to really be released, many people (on all platforms) seem to be having problems with the windowing. They probably thought they could be clever, doing the windowing themselves instead of going with standard libraries for that like SDL.

And I never play games windowed. Completely takes me out of the game experience.

Did anyone manage to make this game run in Fullscreen on Ubuntu 16.04?
For me, the game just pretends to be fullscreen, but renders under the launch bar and top bar - both in borderless and normal fullscreen.
Kinda unplayable like this.

The developer of 'Rise to Ruins' has shared some Linux sales and players data

What's interesting, is that the developer also shared the percentages per-platform of actual players who loaded it up during December, where Linux accounted for approximately 5.12%.
This is also something I thought about. Many people buy on platform A, then play on platform A, B or C - whatever they currently use.
I also buy the vast majority of games on Windows - since it is currently the platform I (have to :( ) use for work, then install and play them on linux whenever I get the chance.
You're just keep feeding Windows market. Good job.
Well, in contrast to you I'm not on some kind of crusade.
Just doing what is more practical at the moment.
Then don't put sad faces on your message which looks like you care , in fact you're not.
You're ridiculously bad at guessing people's motivations, thoughts and reasonings and should steer far away from ever, ever trying it again.
