Sony gives up on forcing PlayStation Network for Helldivers 2

The phrasing is weird. This update won't roll out? So will they publish it at a later date? Or are they abandoning their plans?
HELLDIVERS 2 will soon actually require a PlayStation Network account

Just when I was considering hopping on that bandwagon. I think I'll give it more thought if it requires yet another account.
And Sony doesn't exactly have a stellar security record, they keep getting hacked :|

I can't wait to ply this, but I have so many other titles to play first, including the first one. Oh well, at least I'll get to play it *after* it gets optimized :)
Anyone knows how well the busier sections perform?

Steam Families announced with parental controls, no more library locking

I don't think it's against Steam TOS, their support also invited me to create a new account when I got a VAC ban ~15 years ago.

Quoting: CatKillerQuoting: poiuzI'm pretty sure that having an alt is against the TOS, so they're unlikely to recommend it in their FAQ.Quoting: CatKillerNot unless you Family Share with yourself as an alt account.Did you or someone test this with the beta client? I don't think I saw this scenario mentioned in the FAQ.

Valve fixes up Steam Remote Play - again
13 March 2024 at 5:00 pm UTC
You can try to launch steam with -pipewire or -pipewire-dma-buf (IIRC - I hope I didn't make a typo, more perf, more likely to be broken though usually fine).
They disabled it a while back as it creates a pop up to ask what to share on some desktops, there was no mechanism to remember a choice back then.

Quoting: TurkeysteaksHmm, was hoping this would fix the issue I'm having. After upgrading to Plasma 6, I can no longer remote play to my Steam Link on Wayland (input streams back to PC, but no visual to Link except for alt tabbing causing a green rave).
It's a shame, I use it an awful lot to play local coop games - pretty much every day. X11 has its own issues.
Slightly regretting the Plasma 6 upgrade already honestly, my lock screen is now also broken and there's been a little instability.

Remote Play broken on Steam Deck with the February stable update

Oh no, I just used it (remote play together) two days ago in order to use a second Steam Deck as a controller (while the first one was connected to a projector, and used by another person).
The lag on the screen was a bit much (for a platformer, ultimate chicken horse in this case), but it worked decently when looking at the big screen.

There's a new Godot Engine addon to simplify testing on Steam Deck

Good idea! There are a few more simple things on my wishlist, such as reversing the SD orientation in its case, to allow charging it while enclosed (could also do that with a secondary port at the bottom). And of course, moonshots such as a second unsoldered M.2 slot to repurpose the motherboard outside of the SD 😁

Quoting: CatKillerQuoting: grigiI can totally see the Steam Deck being a fantastic tool for games developers.
It's affordable, powerful, and easy to deploy software to.
It has many input schemes you can try, is a nice portable size, etc...
The trick they missed, that I hope they correct with the Deck 2, is having a Kensington slot. Load up your game/demo on some Decks and let people play.

Out of curiosity, what emulators do you use? RetroArch?

Quoting: PenglingQuoteWhat have you been playing mostly over the last month?Checking my 2024 list so far, 40 out of the 54 games I've played so far this year have been emulated titles, so aside from regular stuff like Stardew Valley (Native Linux) and Super Bomberman R 2 (Proton), I mostly haven't been playing anything recent, or really many PC games at all!
That said, highlights have been kicking off the New Year with Bomberman (NES), getting nostalgic about Darkwing Duck (NES), finally completing Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (Nintendo 64) (a game which I constantly had problems getting through over the course of many many years, because every time I've tried to play through it, random nonsense would come up and prevent me from finishing it), re-playing the charming and weird Star Parodier (PC Engine Super CD-ROM²), reclaiming all my base in Zero Wing (Mega Drive), getting hooked on Dr. Mario (NES) all over again, and revisiting the original boomer-shooter, Space Invaders (Arcade). title

They really did it - Valve added Dwarf as an official Steam tag

Steam makes the distinction between free and free to play. See for instance:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/570/Dota_2/ (genre is also listed as free to play on this one)
https://store.steampowered.com/app/380840/Teeworlds/
The wording above the "play" button is different.

Quoting: EikeQuoting: pbOff-topic but it would be really cool if all f2p games had the "free to play" tag automatically applied. I have a dynamic F2P category wherein I have all the games with "free to play" tag, but half of the f2p games are outside of it... Alternatively maybe Valve could add it directly to the filters...
In my humble opinion, there's two totally different kinds of games costing 0 bucks: "Free to play" (we'll charge you in-game) and "Gratis" games. How would they automatically tell one from the other?

Godot Engine 4.3 will have official Wayland support
1 February 2024 at 10:19 am UTC
I imagine. In theory that means the engine should also be able to survive a Wayland compositor restart, or in theory dynamically selecting the Wayland display (Wayland socket). That would be awesome :)

Quoting: elmapul" allows dynamically selecting the backend too"
that means switch between openGL and vulkan without rebooting godot and the godot game/app ?
