Quoting: Quote from HadBabitsAnyone played it yet? The price is a bit steep for me (being the cheap bastard I am!) unless I know it's a great buy.

I have played an hour of it and so far it has been awesome. I usually dislike platformers, but I have enjoyed Trine 2 and this quite a lot and out of the two I'd say this is better. I'll probably release a video of it next week and then you can see it yourself. :)

Quoting: Quote from Apopas

Quoting: Quote from HamishIs SOMA an abbreviation for something? Because it rings to me, if not, of Brave New World.

I don't know if there is any connection, but in greek means "body".

In Finnish it could be "cute", which I think has nothing to do with this game! :D

QuoteIt looks like 0 A.D runs really well on your system Samsai, and as always a very nicely done video :)

Yeah, it runs pretty nicely until the AI starts rolling his units out. The game doesn't quite handle large armies yet, but it has gotten better over time. Few alphas ago it was totally unplayable, now you can get something done at least. Oh, and thanks for the feedback! :)

Quoting: Quote from JoeAwesome soundtrack in the game, too. Thanks for showing it in the video. I hadn't seen a recent version yet.

Actually I hadn't really spent time with this release before this video. Had it downloaded ages ago, but other games have drawn me away from playing this game. :D

Quoting: Quote from SteamPenguinDownloads no files right now, will probably be fixed soon

Yup, the game lacks files at the moment. I've sent them an email about it and hopefully they will resolve it soon.

QuoteNot amazingly on topic anymore, but I guess that if there's one negative here it is for the Steam-haters. There exists the potential that future games don't support "linux" but do support "SteamOS". At that point, the developer is only distributing his game through Steam and not really making it natively available to all distros.

I understand not wanting DRM, but this Steam-hate is almost ridiculous, because I think we can honestly say Valve pretty much made Linux gaming a thing. Luckily the game selection has also grown outside of Steam too, so people that avoid Steam like plague will get the indie stuff that's floating around in Humble Store for example, but they will most likely miss all the great AAA titles that are coming to Linux.

Quoting: adolsonI also really enjoyed what I've played so far. I just have to find time to play all my games..

Same problem here, just can't find time for all of my 68 (and counting) games on Steam, not to mention all the free stuff!

I like the idea of a less toxic MOBA. So far the only MOBA like that has been Awesomenauts which isn't exactly like a traditional MOBA. :P

QuoteVery good video article, what are your hardware specs Samsai?

I have an Intel i5 2500k processor (3.3 GHz), Nvidia GTX 550 Ti and 8 gigabytes of RAM. This rig has worked really well so far.

Quoting: Quoteyou can use our article submission system to post your videos for others to see here on GOL

I didn't know about this. How does this work?

It's really simple, you just click the "Submit Article" button on the right side of the website above the Twitter feed and below the Editor's Picks/Popular This Week. This brings you to the article editor, in which you can add your text, images, links and videos. When you are happy with your article, click the "Submit For Review" button on the bottom of the page and eventually an editor (Liam, me or someone else) quickly checks the article and, if it's all good, publishes it. The requirements aren't really that high and all the important things are written on the article editor page.

Quoting: HmmSSR can get users banned! as it injects!

Only if you use the experimental direct OpenGL capturing. The normal recording mode doesn't access the buffer directly, so it won't be detected as a cheat. And if the normal recording would be detected as a cheat, I would already be VAC banned on Steam, because I've done huge amounts of videos with SSR.
