Good old Gothic! I finished the first and the second game using Wine. Great series!

Classic Team17. Don't expect much.

When should i386 support for Ubuntu end? Help Canonical decide

Quoting: hardpenguinIf they drop 32 bit repos, it will be a disaster. The gaming industry still ships 32 bit-only applications. Wine is 32 bit only for 32 bit Windows software (because it's not an emulator).

If you want to run games on Linux, you cannot drop 32 bit software.

And no, it is not possible to ship the 64 bit version in every possible case.

Not to mention, that Windows and macOS are going to support 32 bit applications for years to come!
I think you're misunderstanding what is actually being discussed. Go to the survey page itself, and you'll find this disclaimer: "Running i386 (multiarch) software on amd64 will continue to work and is not part of the current survey."

So they're not contemplating dropping support for 32-bit software, only support for 32-bit operating systems.
Alright! I couldn't find this information in a hurry. Thanks a lot!

They resell keys from bundles, sales or giveaways.

Quoting: TeodosioLook forward to the day when Mac ports are just not released any longer.
Why would you say that?

Linux is all about choice. Why do you want to take the choice away from the people who game on Macs?

And so it begins, the Steam Summer Sale is here

On the other hand, Dungeons of Dredmor is a roguelike but by default it doesn't punish the death :)

I kinda agree with your review, I expected more from this game than I've got from it. I think that the game is a poetic story about lonely exploring the space. And you kinda have to feel it. If you don't, then you don't. Definitely not a game for everyone, but it was okay+.

LIMBO is free on Steam for 24 hours, grab it while you can

Fully native port by our friend icculus :) I recommend the game as well, it's a little spooky, but very fun!
