This is awesome news. I was going to get the DRM free version from desura until their financial troubles. If the Steam version gets Linux support i'd buy tit.

I still have to try the first game. My worry is that is more of a stealth game which isn't my cup of tea.

Dreamfall Chapters review

I have had my eye on this game for a while. I am actually playing through Dreamfall: Longest Journey at the moment. I was considering picking this up on sale at GOG for $14 CAD but would rather wait until I am finished Dreamfall: Longest Journey and give them full price for it.

$33 for the early bird price of the game ? I don't go over $20 for a crowdfunder. Not a chance unless your name is Star Citizen.

Bound By Flame, an impressive looking action RPG now on SteamOS & Linux

I picked it up for the sale price. I played Mars: War Logs and while it wasn't spetacular it was worth the sale price and this is worth it to show the support for the Linux version.

This article got posted just after I posted a comment to the original article. I'm going to go ahead and take credit for these improvements. My words are all powerful.

A Four Way Comparison For Alien: Isolation Shows Off The Performance Difference

While it's lower on the Linux side it is still respectable framerates on the Nvidia side. Hopefully AMD can get some more money to spend on their driver teams.

Unlike many I understand why they are behind on the driver side of things. AMD had a profit in 2014 of $51 million while Nvidia had a profit of $147 million in just the fourth quarter of last year. When you make more than 7 or 8 times the money of the competition it is easier to outspend them in R&D. I'm not taking sides, just pointing out a fact.

I prefer AMD's more open type of innovations such as tressFX so I will continue to choose them when they can deliver a competitive product. I wouldn't take a Fury X over a GTX 980 Ti, i'm not blind, but I would take a 390X over a GTX 980 and a 390 over a GTX 970.
