Bungie are incredibly anti Linux and hand out perma-bans to anyone trying. This is abhorrent and geos against user's freedom. It's a shame, because there's a lot to enjoy in Destiny 2.

I LOVE THIS GAME. Just got back into it last week after a long break.

But Amazon just canned it, so boycott Amazon people. Cancel your Prime subscriptions.

I grew up playing Populous and both the Black & White series games. I still play these games 20 years on, trust me when I say I've been waiting for someone like this to come along for over half of my life.

Fata Deum is definitely takes inspiration from these older games, from city building to casting miracles (wonders) to benefit or terrorise the world. There is a concept of alignment (Morality) and the world does change to reflect this, but no where near to to the extent that the BW series did. The game does offer some interesting ways to guide and shape your towns through dreams and I would like to see this fleshed out some more. The game has some unique mechanics and some interesting game-play for the genre but it's no Black & White 3 and we just have to accept that and enjoy Fata Deum for what it is, and not what it isn't.

Currently the game only exists as a single player skirmish sandbox. There is no campaign currently, however the developers seem very open to player feedback and I am confident that the game will grow.

It's early still days yet, but I am excited for Fata Deum and I am looking to watching it develop.

A lot of fun, if you're into that kind of thing. I enjoy ETS2, but it's fairly 1 dimensional; with this I can trade goods, haul trailers, smuggle contraband all whilst staying alive and keeping my space truck operational. Having story elements and voice acted missions to do is what sets this apart for me.

Only a few hours in and there have been so many improvements since the first.

One of the few games I've 100%

This game and Black & White are my all-time favourite games, I've each for countless hours over the last 25 years. Come on Peter/EA, let's get some remakes please!

I am new to the series, but no stranger to X4 games especially titles like Stellaris and Endless Space 2 which are two of my favourite and most played games. I was unaware about this series until this game popped up as a recommendation, I picked it up over Christmas and I think I have fallen in love with it.

This game feels like a breath of fresh air, it feels a lot like Stellaris in many ways, there are many shared ideas but they are executed differently. In particular its nice to have a big open map to freely roam and explore. The Core World and Colony planet mechanics are great and its fun to see how the logistics of resources and production can move between your planets. The leader system is simple yet impactful. No game is perfect but there is a lot to love about this game and it may just scratch that itch like it did mine.

Fallout/Skyrim in space, what's not to like?
