W40K DoW 2
Wyrmsum
Company of Heroes 2
Nightside
Planetary Annihilation Titan (i boycott them)
Star Ruler 2 (more like a 4X but still a gem)
... and others i can't think about right now

I will believe them when it's done, not one single second before that. Too many dark corners in there development statements over the last... what ? 8 months already ?

I tried several times, and i can't find myself enjoying the game so far. It feels at the same time too... busy ? and not deep enough. Anyone played it for real and have some advice to get into it ?

I don't like to have a "surprise game", and maybe worst, one not for Linux. I prefer to hand-pick my games, so i can (more or less) manage my time and money. From 2017, only Total War: Warhammer would get my intention, but i already bought it before, so...

Hi,

I played it a little, it's very unstable, i got lots of crash, mouse becomes unreactive ingame (but not in menu), terrible clipping, some GUI horror... but at same time, it feels attractive, so i will keep an eye on it and try more.

I found the controls and the pace quite bad, i quite after about 20 minutes, but still it's nice to see some Linux love.

Remnants of the Precursors, originally coined “Java MOO” and started in March 2015, is intended to be a strict feature clone of the original Master of Orion game from 1993. Bugs and exploits will be fixed, the AI will be improved, and all artwork, music and user interfaces will be modernized.

I bought my computer on 24th of june 2015 for 823,00 € and it was already a "mid-level" setup. Since then i only added one hard drive, no upgrade at all. As i mostly play indies with low spec requirments, it's still enough. When i play more AAA games like Warhammer Total War, i need to go Low-Meduim, but i guess i get used to it.
