  Yes, let’s port an N64 FPS to Linux. Because if there’s one thing Linux needs are more retrograde first person shooters.

Game: Shadowurn Returns: Dragonfall <- we do this unless a thing drops

Webzone: http://harebrained-schemes.com/shadowrun/

Devel: Harebrained Schemes

Engine: Unity

Price: $19.99 (base game) + $14.99 (Dragonfall)

Wazzat: In 2012, magic returned to our world, awakening powerful creatures of myth and legend. Among them was the Great Dragon Feuerschwinge, who emerged without warning from the mountains of Germany unleashing fire, death, and untold destruction across the countryside. It took German forces nearly four months to finally shoot her down – and when they finally did, the event became known as the Dragonfall.

  Combat feels so very shallow. Even Fallout 1 & 2 in 97/98 had a much more visceral combat experience. Spells might as well be spitballs shot out of a straw.
