    Haha wow
    I am so glad wiped it entirely and stuffed into a virtualbox on my work laptop
    Could not afford to have it not work when I needed it to

    :( I wish more AAA games would be available for linux
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    Yeah for sure, more the better
    I'm back to Total War Warhammer though so that's another AAA title!

    @keneanung
    That and my tax program are the only reasons to have windows at all
    I'm still gnawing away at Assassins Creed: Syndicate when I have time and need a graphics game
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    Ohh I wanted to play the AC version that has ship battles
    keneanung
    @keneanung
    Black Flag and 3 have ships.
    I actually liked all of them
    Sometimes I also play stronghold crusader (works through wine, yay!) or Shadow Warriors: Blades of the Shogun, which runs natively on Linux, yay!
    erm... Shadow tactics

    @vadi2
    I have 100+ linux games in my library...
    Though I poured most of the time into Dota 2 for the last few years. That's native too!
    I used to run Crossover before but with so many native games I don't have it anymore
    I was thinking I'd get Windows again just to play with VR. I've got the money to buy a Vive. Time - not so much
    keneanung
    @keneanung
    I only have 15 linux games :(
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    I just bought Shadow of Mordor yesterday too. Heard it's a great game, and it's native. Pretty much only ever bought native since humble bundles came out

    That's just my downloaded ones atm!

    @keneanung
    But I don't have the time to play much lately, anyways

    Slack insisting on single ` instead of two `` like everyone else just annoys me
    That's my contribution for the day

    Did you know IRE is coming out with a new MUD
    http://www.starmourn.com/
    It'll be interesting to see how Mudlet does there. IRE has very capable Javascript-powered clients now and Starmourn will be a brand new MUD
    Ahmed Charles
    @ahmedcharles
    Interesting.
    They probably have an advantage.
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    I think I'll help out Mudlet users there by porting their UI to Mudlet again just like I did with Nexus
    That'll help get Mudlet get started there
    Ahmed Charles
    @ahmedcharles
    They can just write a client that reads out-of-band data and produce a custom graphical client.
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    They do, thankfully it's all GMCP based
    Just have to decode the undocumented features they add to it
    Ahmed Charles
    @ahmedcharles
    yeah
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    I've been thinking a lot about the project and I think there's a lot we can do from the external-facing stuff as well to make Mudlet nicer
    One thing I'd like to do is to have in-client tutorials on how to do stuff: https://github.com/Mudlet/newbie-tuts
    All of these things that games make it easier for a new player to get started - we could do it to get the player started in the world of MUDs
    There's still so many ideas I want to add to Mudlet! New website, those tutorials, a bunch of API functionality. It's fun

    @ahmedcharles
    I'm not sure what I think about starmourn specifically. Their last scifi mud failed to launch and Midkemia closed. I'm not sure if there's a market for a scifi mud or well, any mud that requires funding anyways.
    There will always be free muds
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    Well it's their CEOs baby, I think the CEO was away for Midkemia
    Ahmed Charles
    @ahmedcharles
    But it's not really a brilliant market for text muds right now or probably ever again. :P
    Matt tried to do Earth Eternal and failed.
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    That was yeah.
    Ahmed Charles
    @ahmedcharles
    I think he has a better chance with starmourn.
    As long as he doesn't write the room descriptions at 2 am while sleep deprived, like he did with Azdun :P
    Vadim Peretokin
    @vadi2
    Haha really

    I started playing Achaea 16 years ago. I can be nostalgic about that time I was nostalgic about being nostalgic :P
    I'm also realizing that I've played the game using windows telnet.exe, zmud, cmud (both of which I actually bought), mudlet, muccl, tintin++, linux telnet and 3 different mobile clients across windows mobile, windows phone and iOS.
