It's Sunday and a rare occasion of it not raining where I am so I am away for most of the day (I also really should make Sunday mostly a day off so I don't burn-out). So, what have you been playing this week?

I am still hooked on Stellaris myself and my time played is reaching silly levels already. On my second play through now as my first ended in my destruction.

I declared war on someone who was being a nuisance, but it turned out their fleet was far bigger than mine. We decided to call a truce, but then my closest neighbour decided I was too aggressive so they declared war on me and made short work of my tiny ships.

Anyone else already excited for expansions to it? I sure am. I would like to see more random events and more neutral aliens floating around to discover.

After last night I am keen to play some more OpenRA, as the tournament we did was great fun. Open source game engines always surprise me and it has been years since I tried it. Everything went smoothly and I lost of course.

I will leave you with a bit of wisdom from Linux & Mac game porter Ethan Lee:

If you're on Linux/OSX and a program seems buggy, run it through Valgrind. Be reminded that you allowed that program to run on your computer

Good question

Because native alternative is complex* (steam version or gog could be acceptable), especially for new users

*same case occur with castle wolfenstein but in this can use nglide 1.05

However if installation process become more frendly for new users maybe can try native

^_^

My weekend died for the glory of Star ruler 2: Wake of the heralds. I'm not good at those games, but… (^  ^)'

Stellaris @ 17 hours. Picked fight I couldn't win, surrendering terms were the emancipation of all my systems except home base. Tried re-conquering my lost systems only to get b****-slapped. Crawled back like a beat dog claiming systems none of the other empires would touch. Game is way too addictive for me : )

DOOM on the PS4! Considering the mountain of expectations of this game, they really did well. The gameplay is really refreshing, it's downright furious. Constant homage to the originals with state of the art graphics and a metal soundtrack. Hell yeah.

2 - Victor Vran
3 - Saints Row the third and IV ( 2 crashes often)

:)

Sounds similar to my first game, strangely similar :D

I don't have much time to play at the moment, but I've been playing Armello natively, Stardew Valley and Clannad in wine. Also found some time for Final Fantasy X on the PS4.

It's been all 7 Days to Die here since the Linux client is working well. Have had quite a few "white knuckle" moments already...like having my house / base collapse for the day 14 horde and escaping by jumping from the roof and being fortunate, out of sheer luck, to land on a porch rail and that allowed me to land on the ground unscathed. My house? Not so much. Total loss.
