Game launcher Lutris has another release out, adding a little spit and polish

Never needed to use it, 99% of my games are accessible through Steam, and I could add the others as shortcuts if I was so inclined.

Still, it's good to see it's so actively developed!

EDIT: I see it's a GTK3 application, which is disappointing. :(

I use chroots rather than VMs, but my 32GB RAM is usually mostly used for compiling software too (mostly because I run the chroots on tmpfs).

Fingers crossed there's no GTK3 dependency.

If it boosts interest in Linux with developers, then that's great. I hope the games come to Steam though, as I won't be using this product.

Dwarf Fortress is coming to Steam and itch.io with enhancements, some info about Linux support

Quoting: BotonoskiI never really expected Dwarf Fortress to ever officially use anything besides ASCII art.

It's supported tilesets for years. There's hundreds of different sets available if you don't like ascii.

See http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Tilesets

I've already wishlisted it, although I can't see myself moving away from the traditional version even if the new version does come to Linux. I'll still buy it once it comes over, just to support the dev.

A reminder about Steam's platform-specific wishlist feature you should be using

I generally only wishlist games that have a Linux version. I don't want to explain to everyone who may buy me games not to buy any games off my wishlist that don't have a Linux version yet. They'll just forget or get confused.

That's awesome news!

I look forward to the day I can play all these games without wine/proton, and without all the bugs of the original engines. \o/

What have you been playing recently and what do you think of it?

I'm continuing on with my Proton-enabled play through of Fallout: New Vegas, that's going well, not so many crashes these days. \o/ (water still acts weird though)

I grabbed Civ VI in the sale, but I've only played an hour or so in the Alexander the Great campaign, haven't played a traditional game of Civ in it yet.

I also grabbed Rise of the Tomb Raider, which is looking pretty good (only played about an hour again); War for the Overworld which is a great "sequel" to the Dungeon Keeper series, very fun; Door Kickers, which isn't as good as I thought it'd be; and Melody's Escape, I am really not very good at, but it'd be pretty fun if I had hand-eye co-ordination.
