Shadow Warrior 2, the awesome looking FPS is due out in less than two months
28 Aug 2016 at 3:01 am UTC

Quoting: amelcherI can say that I unfortunately am not currently working with FWH on SW2. I had some good talks with people at GDC, but I've been too busy to followup with them. It does seem they have engineers internally that use Linux so if they are advertising it then it should happen.

It's good that they have in-house Linux programmers. It means they are taking things seriously and want to support Linux as a primary target.

Sci-fi / cyberpunk themed game by Daedalic? I'm interested and will wait for the GOG release.

Slain: Back From Hell released for Linux on GOG, some thoughts
26 Aug 2016 at 6:22 am UTC

It's not as insanely hard as Maldita Castilla, but it's still quite challenging (both were inspired by Ghosts n' Goblins in some way.). Good platformer overall. Graphics and animations are very well done, as well as music. Combat is refreshing with all the special moves and attacks.

Looks pretty good already. I'll probably buy an alpha version when it will come out on GOG.

Pretty interesting, but a pity it's Square Enix. Low chances of it coming out DRM-free.

Looks very good. I just hope they allow switching those UI markers off. They break the immersion I think.

Master an angry mob in Okhlos, now on Linux with some thoughts thrown in

Authors made a some interesting posts about creating the game (a lot of concept art there): https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=34910.0 [External Link]

They also explain some ideas that went into it, and themselves admit that they were pressed to come up with IC reasons / justification for the carnage and destruction that player should wreck in the game. I suppose it was intended to be some form of exaggeration, but senseless destruction gets pretty irritating, at least for me.

A reason for poor performance on AMD plus Mesa has been found and a patch is in progress

Some speculate, Vega can come early, already this October. Others say it can come sometime in the beginning of next year. I have no idea really if that is correct or not.
