The Humble Devolver Bundle has a few decent Linux games for cheap

i bought it mainly for Shadow Warrior, the other stuff look too pixelated for my taste but i'm ready to give them a try :)

hope they will add Broforce or Hotline Miami or Serious Sam 3 the next week..

Shadow Warrior was already in a Humble Bundle long ago. Is that Special Edition the same one?

EDIT: from what I see on the Steam store page, it seems to be a different one. The SE includes new weapons, an artbook and the soundtrack, right?

Real shame that the most interesting looking game (Titan Souls) has no Linux version.

The only Linux games from that bundle that I don't already own are Ronin and Talos. I didn't enjoy the demo to Ronin and Talos is not DRM free so i'll be passing on this bundle.

I've been interested in Not a Hero, and Dropsy for a while. $4 (the above-average for now) is a pretty good deal for both; considering that their regular prices add up to $22.

Picked the "beat the average" tier. I heard good things about Gods Will Be Watching (Dark Souls of Adventure games) and Dropsy. Not a Hero also looks like a funny game.

Not really interesting, as I already have everything but NOT A HERO. which boils this down to that, plus "more games coming soon" for roughly $4.20. Still an ok deal, but not impressive.

According to Steam, I bought Shadow Warrior ~1 year ago and I am pretty sure it was from Humble. My Steam copy has the artbook, soundtrack, and weapons, so it would seem that it is the exact same version they sold us last time, just with creative marketing :P
I will be holding out to see what games are added next week before I pull the trigger on this one.

Well, I already have Shadow Warrior and Talos Principle and the others don't interest me.
Shadow Warrior is an absolutely incredible game. Anyone who hasn't played it, needs to. For a violent, ridiculous, and over the top throwback to the classics, the story and characters are some of the best I've seen in a game. Not as well executed as, say, Half Life 2, but just as compelling as the Metro games, in my opinion. The ending gives you the same feeling of having done a great deal, and yet accomplished nothing. The sequel is the only new game that I've been looking forward to. I'm so tired of seeing articles with the strategy tag.

As I own nothing of this bundle, and I still have leftover paypal funds from a recent refund, I threw in 5€ for the average bundle . That's pretty awesome for 5+ Linux games so to speak. And the pile of shame grows :D
