Oh and Warlock2 is really much more like Civ5 and barely resembles a game like HOMM :p
omer666 Nov 27, 2014
Allow me to disagree. I didn't see any building tree, any spell book, any blacksmith to equip your troops in Civ5, gameplay elements which I consider are very akin to HoMM. There is definitely some resemblance, but I think that the core gameplay doesn't rely on the same elements as Civ5.

However, you are right concerning bugs in the game, but I have yet to encounter a quest breaking bug (still, they sure exist).

Defense Grid 2 is also 50% off and the first part (no Linux port) was great. Will check it out later once the download has finished.

Quoting: JuliusDefense Grid 2 is also 50% off and the first part (no Linux port) was great. Will check it out later once the download has finished.

I bought it this morning. Played it the first 3 single player levels. No issues to report on a 780 Ghz with a 4930K CPU @1440P. Fun game so far.

Still trying to survive more then 1 day in 7 days to die.

Quoting: kevieI went for Tropico 5 (half price).
Happy Steam sale shopping everyone :D

Good choice :) I have played Tropico 5 for 75 hours now. So far the game runs really good on GNU/Linux and it's really fun - definitely recommend it ^_^

Ok DG2 has a bit of an odd control scheme and it doesn't seem better than part one, but not really worse either. I guess a solid 70% title to rate it from the hour or so I have played so far. Runs on my Nvidia Optimus system with Kubuntu 14.04 really well also, so get it if you like tower defence games (at least at the discounted price).
