Quoting: tpauThey don't have to release galaxy for Linux at all to be viable for Linux gaming. There is already plenty of tools handling that.🥰

Yeah but they have their cloud saving and multiplayer all hooked up into GoG Galaxy 2+, plus its not a bad launcher. It's always good to offer a native option from the horses mouth rather then depending on 3rd party apps that MOST people will likely not know about coming from Windows.

"We've made a search engine that is 10,000x more inefficient, and lies to you!" Basically the AI world atm.

I've just been using Waterfox, seems ok so far.

I'm just holding out until the NVIDIA driver fix because this is one of the WORST affected by the NVIDIA DX12 performance issues. We talking %37 performance drop compared to windows. So if you got 100fps in windows you get 63fps under Linux, its pretty bad!

Finally checked mine and found that you don't even get a platform breakdown if you only ever played on one platform. Understandable, I guess.

I've got the first one on GOG. I got it for free at some point and then I bought all the DLC. Hopefully this gets a GOG release to go with it.

Yep this was a shareware title I played many happy hours of as a wee kid in the golden 90s.

"That's why I am now looking to get rid of DgVoodoo if possible."

Did you try DXWrapper? Main dev Elisha is Wine friendly.

Not quite that long, but I did apparently put 193.7 hours in and didn't actually complete my first campaign…

71% of my playtime this year was RimWorld (36%), Team Fortress 2 (23%), and Stellaris (12%), all of which are over a decade old*. 7% of my playtime was games released this year, which I think might all be from Ark Nova (the digital version).

*RimWorld only released on Steam in 2018 so Steam apparently counts it as "recent" (1–7 years old) rather than "classic" (8+ years old) in the breakdown, but I had pre-alpha access from the original Kickstarter in 2013 and was playing it years before it officially released.

Quoting: Cyba.CowboyThe ability to only update under Windows is a deal-breaker for me, and has convinced me to never buy another XBOX controller... The last time it happened, I was lucky to have a work laptop that ran Windows that I take home - but I'm about to leave that job, and I probably won't have access to a Windows laptop outside of the workplace next time (most places in my industry use fixed computers that are locked-down). Absolutely ludicrous.

I mean, what do expect buying a Microsoft product? They have zero incentive to make it easily compatible with anything but Windows. I suppose you could always try running the firmware update via Wine or Proton, but I suspect that's not possible, assuming Microsoft offers a standalone update package.

Quoting: 1xokMaybe on some visit? I don't have Windows either, but I played at a relative's.

Almost no one in the family has a Windows PC. There is an old, half-broken laptop. I wouldn't enter my data there either.

In my case I think it's more likely that Steam detects Proton as Windows in some cases.

No one ever does.

You saying the Spanish Inquisition use him as their sound track?

Absolutely like no other game, except you have a charmander with horns, a squirtle in the shape of a bird, and a mini dinosaur like pikachu right in the video thumbnail.

That said I wouldn't mind a legal pokemon clone even if its a mobile adaptation, I still play pokemon games on my advance sp.

only 14% of gaming was "spent by all Steam users in new releases (games released in 2025)

Personally I enjoyed Split fiction and DRG survivor from this year. Tried and refunded a few games, most of them were some combination of buggy, overpriced, uninteresting, unoptimised and so on.

If your time and wallet are finite, you're simply better off buying games a couple years after release.

I've been using LibreWolf for the past year or so and have absolutely no complaints - definitely a strong recommend!

I mostly played CK III (89%) and then 4 other games share the rest. Also, 4 months where I didn't play a single game (on Steam).

I don't see any breakdown by OS, but I assure you it's 100% Linux :-).

Though if GOG had similar stats, I think they'd be quite a bit different ... (for one, 89% KC:D2)

Awesome to see them support the game like this, especially after the rocky launch. I'll keep holding off until all key A-Life features are implemented.

Quoting: ArtenAnd Mozilla Corporation is owned by Mozilla Foundation,. So, where are shareholders? Corporation has been established for practical reason. All profits go to Foundation. Corporation is completely under controll of foundation. So in practical sense, there is only foundation, no other shareholder trying to make profit.

I can't comment on Firefox, but I know even Debian does something along these lines.

If not for Clair Obscur, my personal figure would be zero percent. I have almost no interest in new releases at this point. I guess since I am predominately a MMO player, that's kinda natural - these games are meant to be played for years, even decades. And yes, there hasn't been a decent new MMO on over a decade, too.

But usually I had this handful of newly released games I played at least for a little. They seem to be far and between these days. Other than Clair Obscur, the only other recent games I can remember having played in their respective release years were Baldur's Gate 3 and Hogwarts Legacies.

Not even sure why I still have a Humble Choice subscription. :D

Heck yeah, EU4 still grabbing a third of my time! \o/

Except that one time in May/June where I was gone from the world playing Rogue Trader. 😆

100% of my Steam games played in 2025 were... New World. Until they announced the sunset.

Everything else was games with GOG offline installers or Warframe, GW2 and PoE1/2 with their respective standalone launchers.

I wish I had known sooner that there is an open source project of this game. Jools & Jops forever.

Also, the Cannon Fodder recruiting music (starting at 2:40min https://youtu.be/Qc2fulUF64w?si=kVAiz77PpbopUulP&t=160) is a melody that I regularly hum for no reason, even though I haven't played this game in over 30 years.
