Quoting: dpanterHave had this on ignore for a long time... read this article, watched the trailer, read some comments... still felt like ignore was the right choice.

Then I watched this review [External Link] and immediately wishlisted it. :)
Nice review! Convinced me to buy it :)

NBlood, an open source port of the classic FPS 'Blood' using EDuke32

Could you add a mention to the first paragraph that Voidpoint are the developers of Ion Maiden? Without that info, the paragraph is a bit obtuse.

Intel begins talking up their open source efforts for their upcoming dedicated GPU
18 Feb 2019 at 4:38 pm UTC

If it can match my current GTX 1080 Ti, then having a GPU that's properly supported by open drivers would likely be enough for me to make the switch to Intel. I'm quite looking forward to see what they've got brewing.

Electric Sleep could be interesting, a pixel-art Visual Novel releasing this month

That is quite some impressively atmospheric pixel art! I look forward to playing this one.

NOTE: The itch.io demo seems to be gone now.

Nice to see a game developed in Greece! It's pretty damn tough running a small business down here, due to some insane laws/taxes regarding small companies, so I really hope these guys are successful in their endeavour.

Australian Dollars; Icelandic sounding protagonist; takes place in Bornholm, Denmark? ...I'm slightly confused.

Sounds like a lot of changes are on the way for Valve's Artifact

Quoting: gradyvuckovicValve. Can you make a proper game too please? Seriously it's been a long time, we want a proper AAA Valve game. :<
I think this was been discussed long enough. Many people like card games. It doesn't matter that you (and me) don't.
Lol, it's not just you two, obviously LOTS of gamers would LOVE to see HL3, P3, L4D3, etc. You are definitely not alone, Valve is just being lazy, fat, and rich.
Well, apart from their VR games (and let's not forget the upcoming Half Life VR) and of course Artifact, "In the Valley of Gods" is also in development. They might not be putting out a new HL (non-VR at least), Portal or L4D any time soon, but I wouldn't quite say they're "lazy, fat" quite yet (rich, they likely are).

It's nice here ^_^
How are you dealing with left control being non assignable?

EDIT: I mean in Overwatch
I believe you can remap your left-control to send a right-control signal by running this:
xmodmap -e "keycode 37 = Control_R"

Beware that I haven't tested this at all.

Quoting: MaathSo what if you have hundreds or thousands of games? Do you need to search for each one individually and "install" it into Lutris?
It's been a while since I used Lutris, but I believe it will auto-import everything you already have installed/available on Steam.

Day ~6300 Windows Free and that's only because my employer provided Windows NT on my first dev system. Once I figured out how to work around run certain tools under Wine, the rest is history.

Welcome!
Damn, I'm beaten... only about 3400 days here. 4200 days @95% free and I'm still not close.

My hats off to you @TobyHaynes :woot:
Oooh! This looks fun, let's see!

Day 6966 on Linux as my main system and day 4041 as Linux-only (since purging Windows off my DAW setup).

Welcome to the penguins-only club (that makes it cool, right?), Sin!
And well done, Lutris!
