Quoting: drlambCan I start "No Mesa, no Pesos?" Haha.

Or Jar Jar style; "No Mesa, me-sa no buy!"
That's very likely the best thing I've heard this week. Well done.

Don't think I will need this particular game. I can get the same experience on Friday evenings with OBS. :P

Absolutely love this project, since I'm a huge fan of the early Westwood strategy games. We've had a blast in the past doing Linux gaming tournaments using OpenRA, like the time Samsai rage quit after getting annihilated.
I am not mad you brought this up again. I am just disappointed.

Well, the old joke about IGN being an advertisement agency for video game devs sure seems to be closer to truth now.

What have you been playing and what do you think?

What I've played? Undertale (a Genocide run)

What do I think? Lots of pain, both to me and others. In the time I've spent on two bosses I could have played through an entire standard-length game, but I suppose that was to be expected and I should not complain. If I wasn't practically drowning in determination I would have given up a while ago already.

We will think about it after the hottest period is over ;)
I would consider this an insult. Hopefully nobody was silly enough to buy early.

Get thinking, as Feral Interactive are teasing another new Linux port

Picture has a guy with a beard. Guess what game has dudes with beards? Skyrim. So, it's Skyrim and you can cite me as a reputable source.

Quoting: scaineI might have to pick this up. Everyone seems to be raving about it!
It is a very good game with an interesting story. Although initially I wasn't quite sure about the gameplay it grew on me and I'm looking forward to my second playthrough, which might even start tomorrow winkwinknudgenudge.

Organics sighted, marking for destruction - Stellaris: Synthetic Dawn released along with a free patch

Quoting: TheSHEEEPWhat is the actual downside of playing a synthetic race?
Seems pretty overpowered at first sight.
Synthetics have limited diplomatic capability and slower population growth because they need to actually assemble the pops rather than just let them grow with food. That also means you will need to tap into your mineral pool to get pops up. I guess if you are going to go for a super militaristic empire you might get hefty bonuses from being a synthetic but piss off too many empires at the same time and you might pretty quickly get crushed by an alliance of organics. I think the fact that factions are not present for the synthetics can also be a downside since you don't get the influence income bonuses from pleasing the factions, so less expansion.
