I was sent a key to Darkest Dungeon by the developer as I was itching to give it a go. I've been playing quite a bit of it and found out just how brutal it is.
Duskers is the rather unique strategy and survival game in procedurally generated worlds. You pilot drones into spaceships and figure out what's going on.
A user requested after the second part to my overall thoughts on the Steam Controller that I check out Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, so I did. I captured it on video, and you can now watch my failure.
A while ago I did a write-up of the Steam Controller on Linux, and now I’ve had a few more months with it, I’ve tested out the gyroscope some more, and some games not really meant for a gamepad.
It’s no secret that Paradox Interactive has been on the forefront of Linux gaming as both a publisher and developer of games. However, it’s still exciting to see screenshots of Linux on official development posts, especially when the contents of the posts themselves are pretty interesting.
Well, not long after someone reported the issue to Valve from my benchmarks, the performance penalty of using Vulkan with the Steam Overlay seems to be mostly fixed.
I decided to take a look at this Vulkan nonsense with The Talos Principle, since I hadn't actually tried it yet myself. Here are some benchmarks done on my 980ti. I will look to do some on my 970 if people want to see them too.

Featuring a distinctively maritime theme, the latest EU IV expansion has come ashore. The plunder it brings includes a comprehensive free patch that should shake up things for all players.
It seems The Witness may one day see a Linux release, although the developer expects to make a loss on it, it may come to Linux "for fun or for ideological purposes".
Topware are certainly delivering on their promise of supporting old games with Wine. This time Gorky 17 gets the treatment, and a beta has been opened for testing on Steam.
Just a heads up, you might want to avoid Nvidia driver 364.12 is you play Shadow of Mordor (or want to play it soon). Nvidia have stated it's an issue Feral Interactive need to fix.
