The Yellow King, an indie dark horror MMO is now on Linux

So far in my opinion the best "real MMOG" on Linux is Project Gorgon, but the Yellow King seems to be well worthy of my attention as well.

The "news" may be annoying, but something that bothers me more is the "your friend XXX has a new achievement" "XXX now owns ZZZ game" etc. I don’t care about that part at all. I want only game related news posted by the team... And i can’t find any option to remove it.

The FOSS real-time strategy 0 A.D. gains FXAA, more animals and a lot more ready for Alpha 24

I feel 0AD is still missing some important tools, unless i missed them.

Most importantly, full keyboard rebinding, and formation movements : you can select different behavior and shape for the group, but moving around is uneasy, like, you can’t draw an arrow on the ground to set direction they are facing.

Also, i find the perf mid-game to drop quite a lot, and with 50+ units on screen, it’s not great. Could be my computer, but for similar situation, i have better perf with SupCom or Zero-K.

Anyway, i played a new skirmish yesterday, and it still was a nice experience.

Quoting: AvikarrThis game is amazing! Are there more high-quality opensource games like this (not specifically RTS, any genre will do)?
Another RTS i’m playing from time to time is Zero-K.
On Steam you won’t see Linux, but if you ask on the Discord they grant a beta key.
Out of Steam you can download and play the Linux version.

Soldak Entertainment formally announce Drox Operative 2, a starship action RPG
8 May 2020 at 1:51 pm UTC

Drox is my favorite Soldak, i’m quite hyped for Drox 2.
Well, i’m never really hyped but still, in my range of non-hyping, i’m high.

I played them a long time ago.

From a 2020 point of view, which one is the "better one", more advanced gameplay ?
Are they just "the same" with different thematics ?

I’ve just lost a game in Dune2000 and it was actually fun.

Monster-catching, dungeon-crawling RPG 'Siralim Ultimate' hits Kickstarter - funded in 1 hour
2 May 2020 at 10:04 am UTC

Really liked Siralim 1, and 2, and 3...
Also liked the card game Trial of the Gods.

I guess the game will land on Linux only several months after Windows, like the previous games, but well, at least they did land. Also, all were fully playable via WINE/Proton.
