Did you buy the latest Humble Bundle? Keep an eye on your emails for a new Sunless Sea key

I activated the old key, then when I received the new one I activated also that believing that the old game will be updated, but Steam told me "you already have the game". I hope I haven't lost the new key...

Tomb Raider really does look like it's coming to Linux & SteamOS

I already downloaded the Windows version to do comparisons and blame AMD or Feral or both.
That said, those damn QTE are capable of ruining a very good game.

Tomb Raider, the awesome 2013 version looks like it's heading to SteamOS & Linux

Quoting: TheBossDeus Ex: Human Revolution would be fucking brilliant if it was on Linux, completed it on the non-DC version. I would wholly welcome it on Linux to play it through how it was meant to be played. That's a dream though, no hints on that one atm.

That would be fantastic, it's a very good game!

Feral did the Mac version of Tomb Rider.

Here in Italy I get 1820 released games and 1913 sorting by "relevance".

[SARCASM] ...the moment you realize that you have 418 Steam games working under Linux because you can run 140 of them under WINE and decide to send an article to phoronix about that... [/SARCASM]

Review: Bound By Flame on Linux
5 January 2016 at 8:57 am UTC

As I stated elsewhere, this game doesn't run well on AMD graphics cards: radeonsi or catalyst driver isn't different on my PC, we are in the range 12-20 FPS here, whatever graphics setting you are using.
What is incredible is that the game, on the same HW and graphics drivers, works very well under Wine-staging with CSMT enabled with high details and FullHD.

The systems requirements aren't listed into the store page. Do you known if this works with the latest radeonsi open source driver?

Saints Row IV now available on SteamOS and Linux
21 December 2015 at 8:23 pm UTC

My specs:
CPU AMD A10-7850K
GPU ATI Radeon 7850 1GB
8 GB RAM 2133 Mhz
Manjaro Linux x86_64, latest update available,
Kernel 4.3.3,
Mesa 11.0.7, Radeonsi driver
Xorg 1.17, xorg-video-ati 7.6.1
Gnome 3.18

How it works:
At first launch the game automatically selected 720p with medium detail graphics. After the intro (the one done with the in game engine), the game presented a black screen: you can move, but everything was black. Tried to change resolution or graphics detail, nothing changed.
I restarted the game and set resolution to FullHD and High graphics details: everything worked flawlessy, I played the tutorial and the first mission without problems. The framerate wasn't constant, the experience was worse than on Windows on the same machine, but the game was playable.

EDIT
I collected some info on the FPS: goes from 50-60 on videos, to 120 on menus, in game from 9 to 25 on the fourth mission (the first one into a city where you are asked to steal a car) that at 720p, high details.
