I will be keeping an eye on this. Hopefully it will be challenging enough..
I love city builders, but I often find they don't give you enough of a challenge...I agree with this 100%

So it turns out they were working hard these last months..that nobody could type "No" to any of the messages/mails (for some reason I picture them in a basement with chains in front of the computers with no internet access) ..and they made a mistake with the icon because of the server files..this is irresponsible..to say the least..
And yes.. valve has to do something with the "icon" thing..because as it turns out nobody can trust developers nowadays..

..Only one? ..so I cannot suggest all remaining total wars or old games that I grew up with or pubg..etc? ..Ok...only one and a reason then..
-> Skyrim
why?
Introducing bethesda to linux might help them understand what this community really means and what they are missing all these years(high hopes - I know..). Hopefully this new interaction (between bethesda and feral) can bear more fruits in the future (really hope so). its about time we get a game from bethesda.
PS: ..PUBG will have more impact though.. cannot deny that..

Oh boy.. one of my favorite companies.. their DLC pricing strategy needs some changes but I love many of their products. Crusader kings 2 and Stellaris are REALLY nice ( especially CK2 <3 ). Very good bundle!
PS: I might sound like an idiot but I had no idea we had that "sales page" !!! Nice work Liam!

The “Fall 2017” update for Civilization VI has finally made it to Linux

Well Civilization series is one of my favorites..so truth is, even with these delays and far worse ones I would have bought the game and every single dlc either way (I know some of you are screaming right now), trying to support the porter as its probably going to be the same porter when Civ VII comes. Maybe my fingers still remember the sequence of moves a trireme had to make in order to reach america safely in Civ I. But this game is one of the few exceptions in my case. So the reality is I was thrilled when aspyr said a linux port is possible and on its way.
But.. what if it was another game? A game I had no previous contact with. For me, Aspyr right now needs to communicate a bit better with their customers.
PS: And firaxis has to do something with that AI at last! I can still hear Sid Meier saying that most importantly gamers want to win no matter what (it was in a presentation with things they learned after Civ IV if I recall correctly). I respectfully disagree, ...#notAll ? some want challenge and competent AI..
PS2: from rant to rant.. I know I am a terrible person.. thanks for your time..
Edit: typo..

By the way.. are they planing to fix the "download data for all languages cause there is no language option on steam" issue? The game right now with all the DLCs takes over 28 GB of space. Are we expecting to go over 40 GB with the expansion? Linux requirements still mention 15 GB for the core game.. Come on at least this problem should be easy to fix. Does anyone care?
Edit: also.. regarding game's discussions on steam..they gave up on updating the "the official linux thread"'s first post..but.. if you go to the thread concerning macs you will see updates there..and in their last update (always referring to the first post by Aspyr-Blair) you will see the following phrase "Mac and Mac can still play with each other, and Linux users will join very soon." ....so right now.. we can't even do that?
Edit2: I guess I am overreacting again..
