Ah, here we go again.
After a few weeks without CS:GO, the trapped me in again.

Is there a chance that it runs with the steam link?
Or is that independent from that?

I am also looking forward to it.
They mentioned in a stream, that they are also working on better Multithreading for the 4.0 Update. So we can expect better performance and better utilization of Multicore CPUs.
As an owner of the Collectors Edition, I will surely start a new game with Cradle of Humanity.

"The question is: will you use it? "

Definitively not. I avoid FB since years (except WhatsApp, that is hard to avoid as it would cut me off from friends etc.)

And the kind of games they seem to offer is not my style of game. I doubt that there will be games like Stellaris, TW3 or X4.

And I prefere to pay with money instead of privacy.

Stellaris gets spooky with the Necroids Species Pack on October 29

Quoting: GuestI’m not getting it on launch, I never do for DLC, but it sure looks like an interesting species pack. Still I think the 2.8 release will be the time for me to finally give a try to Apocalypse.
Yeah, I will also not buy on release day. Last time I did buy a game on Release day was Gothic III - it was enjoyable about 6 months later or so. And I don't make a difference between games and DLC that add more than cosmetics.

My time is too valuable to spend time as an unpaid tester.

Time for a new Stellaris game I think.

Quoting: einherjarHmm, EUII is a Windows only Version.
Yes, it was explicitly stated in Liam's article.
I know, but it is in the headline of "gaming on linux" and is only Win. So at least it is very old and *may* work with Wine. So not interesting enough IMHO to be the headliner.
