Good name, bookmarked, registered. Anyway i feel it was not a good move to split from GoL, i would have prefered a find of "portal" all in one, as i said in comment here and on Patreon survey.

I played it a lot when it was just pre-cooked in Early Access (about 60+ hours), and then i never managed to like it again despite many returns. Maybe the next update will bring my pleasure back ?

BRAIN / OUT, a free to play side-scrolling 2D shooter that isn't actually terrible

I tested it last and previous week, and i didn't like it. I feel the moves are very lacking, and the targeting and line of sight systems not so suitable for this kind of game. Could be good after some patching however.

First-person puzzler 'Quern - Undying Thoughts' now available on GOG with a Linux build, some thoughts
10 Apr 2017 at 2:47 pm UTC

Are they real puzzles, or try and repeat puzzles ? I mean, a quick example i have in mind : a piano with 20 keys, find the correct 8 keys and in order, to open the door, is try and repeat. If there are clues to find the keys immediately if you think well, then it's real puzzles. In my opinion.

From the game quoted on this thread, i think i actually want Warframe. I played it a little when i was dual booting a few years ago, and stopped when i throw Windows away. I still have friends playing it, and they say it's great(er).

Again, this generic cartoonish design... Whatever it's nice they are testing it on Linux with the help of real players.

Shroud of the Avatar major update, also free to try for a few days

Quoting: wintermute...
Thanks for your detailed answer. I've spend some time today in the free trial, and i feel the same as before : my main concern is the claustrophobic feeling. Way too much loading screens, and way too long. I had a similar feeling with Age of Conan in a way, but in SOTA it feels worst.

I hope it's not a Total War. I hope it's not of the games quoted here, as none get my interest ! Beside this, i have no idea.

I will try it again, but from my reading over the past few years, it seems they wasted potential here.

Are these correct :

- map is cut is several little pieces with loading screen and no real sense of openworld
- you have to pay for the game, and the cash shop is a huge trap with ingame house costing 200+€ up to 1000+€, rent, deed, and many other things that you "must have" to have a real MMOG experience
- whatever more than a basic gameplay experience, you have to pay with real money
- even for being part of the forum, you need to pay 5€
- Little activity around the game beside the official voices
