Title: New Linux Game SIte
Post by: XOIE on August 22, 2008, 10:37:42 am
Hello people!

I'm the maintainer of a very new site for native linux games:
The Linux Game Database http://www.lgdb.org
The aim of the site is to create an easy and feature rich tool to find games fast and provide a quick jet comprehensive impression.

I added Planeshift to the database.
http://www.lgdb.org/node/24

The sites relies heavily on game attributes like genre and features to form extensive filter possibilities for the user. It would be great if someone would check the information i provided and see if all is correct, please let me know if you like to have anything changed.

Ciao,
XOIE

Welcome XOIE!

That's a promising website, you've already got quite a few games there. It's handy to browse by attributes/OS, and the review/score system is good to have too. Being able to sort a selection by rank or something else would be great, but I guess you already have a to-do list ;)

Your Planeshift description seems alright to me, you could add the supported platforms (Windows/Linux/MacOS).

Incidentally, I've seen that NeverwinterNights was MMORPG? It's true that some mods make it a permanent world, but saying it's massively multiplayer is probably stretching it very far. Debatable though, maybe I should take a look at the latest worlds out there.

If you're looking for other links to MMORPG games, you could ask here or do a search, it's a recurrent topic.

Keep up the good work!  :)

Thanks,
Of course you are right about neverwinter nights, changed that, and changed the platforms for planeshift ;)
is there some sort of an official video for planeshift?

I would recommend you pick a few more recent screenshots from http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=26613.0 and use them. We have had changes to the lighting system in the maps that makes the screenshots you have very outdated.

i took some time to look through the suggested thread for pictures and although they might display an advanced stage of the game i had a hard time finding something that even had looked nice, if you have something particular in mind can you please post a link?

Please kill the Linux Game Tome.  Also, make sure PlaneShift is spelled with a capital S (http://www.lgdb.org/game/planeshift).
