West of Loathing, a comedy stick-figure wild west adventure RPG is coming to Linux soon
4 August 2017 at 12:30 pm UTC

I'll wait for some in depth reviews, but this has my attention. I love a good RPG, I find the art style charming, and it's been a long time since I have played a good western.

ICY: Frostbite Edition, a narrative-driven post-apocalyptic survival RPG will release with Linux support

I hate survival games, but I love narrative choice games. The closer this is to, say, Sunless Sea, and the farther it is from any of the myriad "hit thing to gain a different thing to craft another thing, oops some meter dropped too low so you're dead" games, the more likely I am to buy it.

Call me a sucker, but I would buy even a game full of nothing but escort quests in ice levels if it looked as beautiful as this.

Apology accepted.

And, to be fair, I don't think either of those games fit the Action RPG mold very well either. I do understand your frustration - I am first and foremost a fan of Strategy games but I have loathed every single real-time strategy I have ever played so to see even classic turn-based series like Master of Orion jump to real-time combat disheartens me.

Your perception is biased. My perception, which is also biased, is that the only two RPGs I have played in the past few years are PoE and Tyranny, neither of which are turn-based.

Quoting: BeamboomYou gotta be f'ing kidding me, or just insanely egoistic.

Wow. How you jump straight from having never interacted with me in your entire life to personal attacks says a lot about you.

Thank god. Adding it to the wishlist.

HITMAN will have the first location available completely free later today

This has been on my wishlist since day one, so I went ahead and took the plunge and bought it. I won't have a chance to play until I get back from my weeklong math conference though so hopefully they have the "can't play" issue sorted by then.

I've read that the single player is awful and the level of toxicity that I have encountered in every single multiplayer game I have ever tried has guaranteed that I only play single player games anymore. I think this is a cool offer but I will be passing for that reason.

Steam Direct, the self-publishing system on Steam will cost developers $100, Curators getting an update too

I've been on Steam for, I think, 8 years now. I still don't know what a "Curator" is or what it does.
