Valve as expected have put up the Steam Autumn Sale for 2018 and it comes rammed full of some epic Linux gaming deals.
As always, I aim to give you a couple of interesting titles with good deals to get you started:
- The Talos Principle - 85% off (Remains one of the best first-person puzzle games around)
- Rise of the Tomb Raider - 80% off (According to SteamDB that's the lowest price ever for Steam)
- Total War: WARHAMMER - 75% off
- Mad Max - 75% off (Easily one of my favourite Feral Interactive ports, also has a Vulkan beta)
- Planetary Annihilation: TITANS - 75% off (One of the biggest RTS games on Linux, with a renewed life recently)
- EVERSPACE - 70% off
- Black Mesa - 60% off (Good price to get it at while waiting for the Xen levels)
- Rocket League - 50% off (I'm personally nearing 200 hours in this…)
- Total War: WARHAMMER II (only just released for Linux!) - 50% off
- For The King - 50% off
As always, there's plenty more on sale. Plenty of games both big and small of sale, some of the discounts are a little ridiculous! See more on Steam, here's a handy link to show all Linux titles on sale - filtered for only games and DLC.
Also, their artwork for it is absolutely lovely, wouldn't mind an expanded version of this as a background:
Do come back and let us know what you're getting, we would love to know.

Added Rise since it really is quite a deal. Won't be adding more though, have to stop somewhere.

There are sales everywhere, not only on Steam. I bought Starcraft Remastered (works fine so far in Wine) and Starcraft 2 (is still downloading) on Battle.net.

Oxygen Not Included is only 25% off. You get an additional 20% off if you already own one of Klei's other titles.
https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/klei
But some are really cheap and worth buying even if you only want to get the 20% discount. However, you can bundle ONI with the Don't Starve collection for only $26(US) including the latest Don't Starve DLC: Hamlet. (and credit for any title you may have.)
Edit: I chose Klei for the best developer category.

I did! I was struggling to think of a dev that deserved it but then I remembered Feral's launcher. You get to choose which screen to play on. This is the best launcher feature ever.
I bought Talos Principle finally, because that price is just too good now.

To Mesa users: beware that Black Mesa it's not working right now. Looks like they have some kind of memory leak (probably related with shaders) that ends up depleting the process available memory in little to no time of playing (it's 32bit process, so whenever it tries to use more than 3GB of ram, the game crashes). For Nvidia users it should work fine though.

I can not recommend Planetary Annihilation: TITANS at the moment. Its UI is absolutely broken with Open Source radeon drivers for a very long time now.

In totally unrelated news, I've just realized that Exapunks is now on GOG too. No discount though (there's a 'black friday' sale over there as well).
