The only issue I have encountered is the audio seems to be a little buggy. I haven’t had a single crash in multiple hours of testing, so it seems to be very stable. The amount of games that utterly fall over themselves at trying to accomplish that one task is amazing, but Overlord gets it right first time without any messing about. It also appears on the correct monitor with my dual-monitor setup. So I started off impressed right away, great start. I always like being able to do this before a game ends up giving me some wonky resolution: ![]() First of all it has a decent launcher to pick resolution and game options before loading. Somehow being the bad guy in games just seems more exciting. I’m pretty damn happy that Overlord is now on Linux, as I’m pretty sure a good 90% of games see you being some sort of hero and rarely the bad guy. While I do have issues with previous ports from VP, I always take each game with a fresh mind as some are really are fantastic (like Bioshock and DiRT Showdown) and some not so (Saints Row series ports). I was only sent it late yesterday, so you will forgive me if this isn’t as in-depth as I would have hoped it would be. It's using MojoSetup, so you can install it wherever you please. This is a DRM free release from their own store. Note: The Linux release is not yet on Steam. I was able to get advanced access yesterday and here are some thoughts. Overlord and the Overlord: Raising Hell expansion have been ported to Linux thanks to Virtual Programming.
