I'm glad to see that Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition was well worth the wait by delivering an incredible true linux native game that works really well.
Any chance for a benchmark video between the windows and linux versions? :D

Ah divinity!
Still I was disappointed that I could not chose 3 games per category, I felt a bit ruthless at times...
Congrats to the winners. If you did not make it does not mean your game was not appreciated, I actually enjoyed some great games here that I did not vote for.
EDIT - noticed that dwarf fortres did not make it...Oh well....Still, worthy win for 0AD.

Dwarf Fortress, while one of the most amazingly complex and fun games going, is very much an acquired taste with a steep learning curve that puts off a lot of people. I'm disappointed that it didn't get the recognition it deserves, but I'm not too surprised.
I am surprised that OpenXCOM didn't even get 10 votes in the FOSS category. The amount of work that's gone into that project this year is phenomenal. I suppose it has been a year and a half since the last stable release though, so maybe it's fallen off a lot of people's radars. When the next version lands with TFTD support, maybe it'll catch a few people's eyes.

I agree that Dwarf Fortress is an acquired taste, if a proper skin came out for the game I am sure it would wipe the floor....
I was not aware of the OpenXCOM project, I will give it a go. I have played quite a lot of UFO Alien Invasion, but I suppose that that version is not as challenging as the original Xcom.

> Best … performance
> Pillars of Eternity 3rd place
I dunno… It's soooooo slow on location transitions (including houses).

great job I thought, although the most anticipated for 2016 is not surprising. I'm looking forward to xcom2 and street fighter V myself :)
