personally i find first person games great fun, but rune is a bit of an exception in many ways. speaking as a sword fighter from the SCA, http://www.sca.org
there's alot more to manuvering in melee combat than strafeing and attempting to duck behind a shield. for this reason i, personally, think that first person games with a melee base will not take off until another sort of interface is developed (or a revolutionary control set). anyway my two bits.
this is the only time anyone will ever hear me say this, but this is a good thing for distros to take care of for their users. i mean this is actually something to advertise, i mean really how can you really listen to a linux distro advertising about software you can download for free? anyway if distrobutions bought licenses in bulk and put a license in with a box distro, then you have the licensed software, and the linux company is supported by charging some overhead, because through buying in bulk, the price should drop.
