Seems that the DE question causes some confusion. I don't use a DE, so I answer None/Custom. I use a standalone WM (openbox) instead.
In the results though, I see that openbox has two (!!) bars, presumably because some people are confusing it with a DE and entering it under "other" (either with a capital O, or a lowercase), and i3 has a bar too (presumably for the same reason).
Perhaps a new option would help. i.e.
[ ] Standalone WM (e.g. openbox, i3, dwm)

I got the steam survey today too.
Not sure if that was an April fools, or if I'm the 1% for this month.

The joke is that the image for this months poll says "Survey results for March March March", instead of "Survey input for April"? :P

I found the AAA question difficult to answer.. I don't know what half of those AAA games are about, so I only ticked the ones that I know I'll be getting. If the others looks good to me when they release, then I'll probably get them too.
Prepare A New Set Of Pants, Outlast Releases For Linux On Tuesday
31 March 2015 at 8:45 pm UTC
It installs and runs really well. The performance is great (pretty much constant 60FPS) on my Nvidia GTX970, but there's an occasional graphical glitch that spoils it for me. Looks like this. It's particularly glitchy around the security room about 10 minutes in. Looks like this.
I'm enjoying the game so far. But if these graphical issues persist, I can't see myself getting too immersed.

How is it running?!?

Prepare A New Set Of Pants, Outlast Releases For Linux On Tuesday

Mmm the Amnesia games have the same sort of gameplay, and I didn't find them scary (I've only played Dark Decent and Machine for Pigs, I think there's others?). There were a few "jump scares", but other than that, they were basically just exploration games with occasional distractions.
I'm hoping this will deliver what I hoped Amnesia would.

Quoting: FeistThis game was pretty good, the whole run/hide aspect added a good deal to the "horror-feel", compared to the "normal" horror-games where you shoot/blast/whack/slice/pummel and generally abuse anything that looks even remotely scary.

New Nvidia 349.12 Beta Driver Released

Ah, but surely Windows users are crying out for this feature too. After all, feature parity is something that the nvidia devs are very determined to maintain...

Quoting: BeamboomCome on Nvidia, add Nvidia 3d Vision support to your Linux drivers please. I got this sweet little set of glasses collecting dust here. :(

Steam's 2K 10th Anniversary Sale Has Linux Goodies Going Cheap

It's there, but I can't vouch for it's usability.
Incidentally, you can enable mods in CivV with a little config file tomfoolery, but again, I can't vouch for it's usability.

Quoting: FredOI would be interested in Beyond Earth for that price, but does anybody know if they included Steam Workshop support in the Linux version. Civ 5 never got it so far.
