Today GOL asks: what have you been playing on Linux, and what do you think about it?
I've personally been playing a lot of OpenRA, which I think I may have an addiction to. Really love the classic Westwood RTS games, I just wish the AI was a little better.
We had some fun playing Left 4 Dead 2 last night as well, such a good solid game. Great fun to play with friends, even if we did utterly fail at putting fuel in the car at the end of a certain level. Stupid Tank.
Now that the XCOM 2 patch and DLC is out I am also very much looking forward to getting back to kicking alien ass.
This coming week I am hoping to polish up our statistics page some more and include a resolution picker too. Along with general bug fixing of the website I am also planning to continue rolling out more features and new sections, but more on that later.
So many games, so little time!

Well over 800 hours of Borderlands 2 (some of that in Wine due to crashes for the native version on some missions).
Recently put 26hrs into Pharaonic, some of that grinding for fun (the gameplay itself is engaging, so I don't mind just going around easier areas and wrecking house).
Ziggurat, Eldritch, Heavy Bullets, Barony (see a pattern forming there?).
Most of the way through a 4th or 5th run at Victor Vran. I can hardly contain myself waiting for the Motorhead (insert umlauts where they should be, I can't be bothered right now :P ).
I've tested all the available Saints Row games. They're all playable, and I plan to put time into all 3.
I've been meaning to put more time into 5089.
ALL of this is on hold because I got a PS4 and I've been neck-deep in Bloodborne.

I made the mistake to dig up Civ 5.
Apart from that, a lot of dwarf fortress, and of course KSP.

The last weeks I played X Rebirth and Stellaris since the last patch. A little bit of War For The Overworld, Grim Legends 3 and Zenge. And, even if nobody will ever talk to me again, I emit I played some Adventure Capitalist 
Usually while I'm listen to a pod cast.
Every was working very stable and I don't have any trouble with performance. Only X Rebirth got damaged graphics after a while playing but it does not crash.

I'm playing X Rebirth (but I've been playing X series games for years), some Pionneer Scout Plus (it's a mod for Pionneer - Frontier Elite remake), Stellaris of course, some Shadow Warrior and a LOT of Rimworld (ok ok, I'm a space person...)!. I also always have a platform/puzzle game installed for when I haven't much time for serious gaming ; I recently finished Steam Dig and Escape Goat, I've installed Teslagrad but haven't start it yet...

Grid: Autosport which I like playing with less assists and because of that this week I look forward to play F1 2015, I also played Crusader Kings 2 and I must say that keeping the vassals happy some times is hard but the game is very enjoyable even without any dlc.

I started up Sword Coast Legends: Rage of Demons. It's okay, I guess.

I wish I have more time and more friends to play PULSAR: Lost Colony. Cause I don't have, I play Saints Row: The Third and love it. Starbound, CS:GO and PAYDAY 2 sometimes.

I am more of a fighter/PVP/Action gamer but I dont like fps games .
I like competitive games that last 5-30mins or 1h Max like speed runners or hearthstone for example.
Well actually Dark Souls or Street Fighter or Rocket League I can say are the kind of games I would prefer to play but unfortunately I cant. :(
So I played Wand Wars a bit. Not that much of a fight but is a nice game to pass your time.

Also since I had nothing to play I have beta test on Linux the NADI Project.
It is free so give it a try if you like exploration games and a nice creepy story :P
Well you have 2 options , either fast save yourself in 1 hour or complete the whole story :P

Transistor, Age of Wonders 3, Minecraft, Ark (runs great on the ZOTAC Steam Machine).
I remember comments to such stories from a few years ago. A handful of titles recycled in all posts. Now it seems like every post mentions a different set of games. Sure, some recurring great titles, but the variety is impressive.

War Thunder. Just can't get enough of the grind. Seriously. Even after nearly two years I still enjoy it. The constant updates of vehicles and modes and the really pretty graphics help a lot.
