I didn't even see FM 2014 for Linux - is this due to me living in Germany, or wasn't it available on Steam?

The Witcher 3 Is Reportedly Really Coming To Linux

I'd already start singin', with the Tune of Bob Marley...
No native - no buy.
;o)

No, to be honest: Witcher 2 has improved a bit with the new beta, but not enough to play it on reasonable settings. For really demanding games, wrappers will give less performance, and you haven't got performance to waste there.

GOL Asks: What Have You Been Playing Recently?
13 July 2014 at 11:16 am UTC

Due to new releases and the summer sale, I've got new
* Limbo
* Papers, Please
* Civilization V
* XCom EU & EW
* Deponia

... and while I'm pretty sure that all of these are great games, I didn't play anything but XCom, although I already had played EU for over 60 hours on Windows. It's _very_ addictive.

... and now going back to kick some alien's butts.
Or let mine be kicked, whichever comes first. ;o)

Just A Friendly Reminder: Don't Buy A Game Until It Is Officially On Linux

Quoting: DeformalBut if these ports were made by the same team, it doesn`t matter where you bought this game (Interstellar Marines was ported on Mac and Linux by the same developers, that made it for Windows - Zero Point Software). Sorry for bad english, I hope, You understood this.

I'm quite sure it matters anyway. There is still a manager counting the Windows and the Linux copies sold and comparing the revenue of the (non-Windows) platforms with the money spent for the ports. And he is going to decide if there will be more ports in the future or not.

Quoting: pbI have both Trine and Trine 2, but I haven't played either of them so far - should I play them in chronological order (i.e. keep waiting for #1 to get to Steam) or it doesn't matter?

I'd play the first one first, because the second one is a bit better, but both are worth playing, and that way, you get an even improving experience.
