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!
Also, again, thanks for all the support on Patreon!

Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
Quoting: PlutonMasterI'm having some trouble with these games (native + Wine)
- DragonBall: Xenoverse(wine, works but no sound)
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim(wine, works but no sound)
- other games what I want to run wine, is impossible (dark souls, gta v, just cause 2, battlefield 4 etc...)
Curiously in my case have sound in both dragon ball xenoverse and skyrim
However i compile wine (i386 only) in each release (around wine 1.9.8 all dependencies are satisfied: gstreamer-base-plugins-dev are solved)
In before versions (1.7.55 and before) various games have problems with sound
Dark Souls in regular wine have serious flickering problem, however staging solve this issue in various titles

Most often played in the last month: Close between League of Legends (WINE) and Ark: Survival of the Fittest. I enjoy competitive games. It would be nice if Riot Games would support Linux, but until then: no tux, no bux.
Other games I have played in the last month: Agar.io, Ark: Survival Evolved, Bastion, Civilization V, Dota 2, Factorio, Hotline Miami, Seven Kingdoms: Ancient Adversaries (Thanks for open-sourcing), Slither.io, Torchlight II, Unepic, Unturned

I've played Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth + Rising Tide DLC. The game is very good and challenging. Combat is much simpler than Civ 5 and makes wars more balanced. Love how you can build cities on the water!
I've also played Pillars of Eternity, havn't finished that one. And Hand of Fate, stuck on last story level. It's a bit hard. ^^

I've just been playing Tomb Raider 2013 lately, but after I have completed that I will go onto yes it is an old game, but it is full of atmosphere and the game is Fahrenheit, Originally out on the PS2 but got a Windows and Linux HD remake. Then after I have finished that I will go on to conquer the massively fun ODDWORLD New N Tasty remake, which is 3D and 2D combined. Then will have to try my hand at Dying Light, once I have some spare cash, but before that Left For Dead 2 will have to be completed, shame we can't have the first one, but hey ho. Then just to calm down from all the zombie killing we'll go onto Grim Fandango Remastered.
These games above, apart from Dying Light are all the Linux games I own at the moment, real life gets in the way unfortunately.
My dream would be stranded on an Island with just me my future wife, Totally unlimited free broadband, my Linux Computer but upgraded to a super computer with around 80,000 Quad Core processors that all run as one massive processor the latest in Graphic Card technologies 100,000GB of gaming Ram, 68 trillion TB and a nice Cinema screen sized monitor, to play my games on through Linux of course, I can but dream.
