Hey that's neat!

It is one feature of Gnome I really like.

It would be nice if Epic would allow UT2k4 to get this treatment at some point.

Loved this game as a kid!
The installer runs pretty well but unfortunately I can't the game started itself. It shows the error

Failed to enter Entry: Can't find file Entry.

History: UGameEngine::Init <- InitEngine <- main

I have no clue how to solve it

The huge variety of games here is amazing. This is a group of consumers that just can't be pinned down or put in a box, I love it! I own Arc Raiders and have about 10 hours in, but every time I think about playing it, I get stressed. So I have mostly been playing Breakout Recharged

I have felt this way about Megabonk. Players are not the one placing the attacks or landing the hits. Players are just in charge of positioning, navigating the map and selecting upgrades. It's perfect. Automate the grunt work. Hand-off the rest to the player who can now focus more deeply on what really matters.

Seems like they may have a serious audio problem on Deck right now. I'd fully expect at least one more hotfix release soon.

D-pad in the wrong location. Pass.

That's the XBOX360 location, which I was quite used to... about 20 years ago. It's got the XBOX markings though, so it makes sense.

See, for me, this is the perfect spot for the d-pad... Megadrive habits, I guess

Completed Half-life 2, HL2-episode 1 and half way through episode 2. All in VR, it works incredibly well and is a fantastic experience.

Me and my brother had a run through all the HL games in coop a while back, was good fun! (Not the VR versions though.)

Just finished [My Time at Sandrock](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1084600/My_Time_at_Sandrock/) after about 200 hours - excellent game with solid mechanics, lots of humour, and even some touching moments. As an evolution of My Time at Portia it was pretty much what I had hoped for!

I also finished [American Arcadia](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1249040/American_Arcadia/) in a few hours - I was expecting a point & click adventure but instead it's an interesting mix of platforming and puzzle game. Impressive presentation, great voice acting, decent story with some twists - the only annoying aspect was the opaque checkpoint system, but overall it's a game worth your time!

Now intermittently playing [Road 96](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1466640/Road_96/) on the Deck and [The Multi-Medium](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2077380/The_MultiMedium/) on the PC while trying to decide what to play next. I was going to finally start [Baldur's Gate 3](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1086940/Baldurs_Gate_3/), but I'll give it some more time for the native Deck/Linux version to bake (hey, I've waited this long...)

I think I will play [Outer Wilds](https://store.steampowered.com/app/753640/Outer_Wilds/) instead, a game that I've owned for years and started a few times but inexplicably never progressed past the starting area. I guess it's finally time to see if it's really the masterpiece that everyone says it is...

Mostly No Man's Sky. I also just relaunched Skyrim. There are so, SO many games I want to try, but I have very limited time to play these days, with work and very young kids.

Question: I already did a redux version of the Beachhead expedition. Should I do it again, would I get a second Normandy?

Ah, Sentry. One of the best crash-handling systems in existence. Also one of the worst self-host applications I've ever had the misfortune to have to run..

Reading about what's currently being played among the (Gaming On) Linux community and the experiences is really nice, gives even some ideas on what to play next.

So, what have you been playing lately (and why isn't it ARC Raiders?).

Hm, so this sounds like it's safe to get it? Unlikely to be suprised in the near future with a non working game for gamers using Linux? Because so far that's my reason (and my pile of games and thus monetary considerations )

Yet, I have been playing games:

• Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop
  I've been to a few LAN parties recently, and this has become our go to coop game. It's free, it's good, it's fun... it's hard What turned out as a tech demo from Valve has turned into a nice community project. And I love Alien themed games.


• Arizona Sunshine Remake
  VR on Linux... yeah, that's its own topic. But when it works, it's sooo good! And as Steam Link VR now works on Linux, I got a Quest 3, after testing wireless VR on Linux with the Quest 3S from my little son. And as Steam Link VR does sometimes have issues, I tried WiVRn, and Steam Link VR vs WiVRn is like Steam VR vs Monado. When working, it's better than Steam's version. Especially when using nVidia, as async reprojection is still an issue with wired HMDs. Not so with wireless HMDs. So now I'm playing wireless VR on Linux cooperatively with my son


• Escape Simulator
  Same as with Arizona Sunshine Remake, works with WiVRn and we play it coop. Unfortunately (well, it's not that much of an issue) I have to switch from the native Linux version to Proton, as the native Linux versions doesn't support VR.


• Returnal
  Hard, rogue lite, good. Still haven't finsihed it, but it plays so good with the MoveMaster, it's a game I can dive in for an hour or two, trying to get back into the flow... but also then end again. Hopefully I improved a bit, as I still want to have a complete run at some point.


• No Man's Sky
  Expedtion 20: Breach. Played this, started in VR, finished on Steam Deck. Labor of love game. NMS is so good and that it's still updated after almost 10 years with such dedication is such a joy. One of my all time favorites.


• Fall Guys
  Speaking of all time favorites, this is also one of them. Playing it almost daily, completing the dailies, though after finishing the Fame Pass it's not really daily anymore. The rewards in shards for completing the dailies is ridiculous. Yet a fun game, easy to learn... sometimes hard to master. The only "competetive" game I play online :D
  And I'm better at it on Deck than I am on Desktop PC with Stadia Controller

Game On!

Haven't been playing that much recently. A bit of Sea of Thieves last month.

My only game at the moment is Oldschool Runescape.
But I'm positively surprised, that Cookie Cutter will get a re-release on many platforms, I sure would continue playing it.

I struggle to find some game to truly grab me. I recently finished Detroit: Become Human which was awesome, but I don't have something to follow it up with. Civilization 6 is good, but it is rare to get a good starting setup to keep it interesting, often you win or lose by the turn 50, plus it gobbles us unholy amounts of time. I found Control boring, I'm going to try Talos Principle next.

Forza Horizon 5 and Jurassic World Evolution 3, but recently I got the urge to play some more classic PC games from the 2000s. I'm ordering some (used CDs) for my birthday and see if I can get them to run. Ahh, the nostalgia! Those were the good old days when ownership was still a thing

I hope they fix the long loading time for Split Fiction.

With my SO, we have been playing a lot of Heroes III of Might & Magic (through [VCMI](https://vcmi.eu/) ), with [Horn of the Abyss](https://heroes.thelazy.net/index.php/Horn_of_the_Abyss) and [In the Wake of Gods](https://heroes.thelazy.net//index.php/In_the_Wake_of_Gods) extensions, and it's a blast

Also been playing Half-Life at lunch time with my colleague...

Nostalgia...

[EDIT] I actually forgot to mention the game that has currrently hooked me up, [Tainted Grail: Conquest](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1199030/Tainted_Grail_Conquest/?curator_clanid=42629110) !

Lately I've been playing some modded Terraria with the Archipelago randomiser, it's been quite fun. I have been also meaning to continue my Cyberpunk 2077 playthrough, but I keep getting distracted by real-life things..

Warframe for the most part, 1000h in on Nobara Linux. 40k:Darktide, 40k:Rogue Trader, Path of Exile 1 & 2, Last Epoch. That's pretty much my year of gaming covered :D
Latest ones being Ball x Pit, Megabonk and started Sworn just now.
Forza Horizon 5 is the only one I'd like to play, but it just doesn't start properly every time and requires a re-install at times...Also sucks that moving my profile from Gamepass is nearly impossible. In my case, moving the profile broke my controls for some reason.

I looked at new The Boglands DLC for my favorite action-roguelike survivor-like game, Halls of Torment. I was surprised when I saw that the user reviews were "Mixed" with 101 reviews (70 positive, 31 negative). Some of the English reviews talked about bugs, game crashes and balancing issues. There is also a couple that mentioned problems with "growth traits." Since I did not own the DLC, I could not confirm or deny any of these claims.

Not sure what are those reviews talking about, I already spent few hours in the Boglands and didn't saw any bug or game crash. With balancing I'm not sure, the Boglands is really hard even when you have all the 500 original quests already completed and maxed out almost everything. It's still easier than The Vault, which could make even the easiest enemies a health sponges after 30 minutes. The growth traits are not bad, it just took me two games to figure out how to best use them (maxing out the related trait first and then picking it up).

The new classes are really fun, each of them with their own specific mechanic (especially bard, which has it's own abilities).

You mean something like The Vault?

The main difference between The Vault and Boglands is that in The Vault trigger for boss was to destroy the crystals, here you need to kill 20 000 enemies, but both of them are very hard to survive and you need to have been prepared.

I'm playing King is watching (it really hook me up), returned to Halls of Torment with Boglands DLC and in the meantime playing Enotria: Last Song (not a bad soulslike).

I've been having to stop myself from playing more Stellar Blade I love the game too much and was playing it for like half the summer so I've been playing Clair Obscur and a bit of Final Fantasy VII Remake on my PS5 Pro. Over this year I've found out that I play my games more on my PS5 Pro, I think I just like to play games on my TV more then my Computer monitor.

On my computer I've been playing Borderlands 4 with my friends. I really like the movement in the game, but the game likes to not register bullet hits so you can wasted an entire magazine into someone and nothing happens, and some gun manufactures just feel awful now mainly Maliwan. I've been trying to get my friends to play Monster Hunter Wilds again since the Final Fantasy cross over is here and everyone wants to do it but they just keep pushing back when we play. Started playing Smite 2 with my one friend some more after like 1 month or 2 of not playing do to lack of god variety for me but Eset being added to the game makes me want to play again having something new since the last new/ported god I play came out 8 months ago.

Back to the PS5 Clair Obscur is really fun I love the combat every fight feels like you always have a shot no matter how hard it is as long as you can keep up. Tho that does make me play the game a bit less then I like because of how much I have to focus to win fights. The music is really good. My friend hates that (Story Spoiler)

Spoiler, click me

Gustave Died and is just like I don't care about this story anymore I want Gustave.

One fight took me 2 hours because I had to keep up perfect parries for 10 or more minutes for each attempt. According to PlayStation I'm about 57% done so still have a bit to go, looking forward to see what will happen. I've only played 2 hours of Final Fantasy VII Remake but I'm liking. It being an Unreal Engine 4 Game feel similar to Stellar Blade to me in terms of how the character looks makes the game feel familiar/safe to me. Don't really have anything else to say about it yet, just that I guess it show my addiction to Stellar Blade.

I just want to talk about Stellar Blade now. I don't exactly know why I'm so addicted to it. Its the first game I've done a new game+, I've almost 100% the game something I haven't done since I was like 12, I have over 150 Hours in it and I want to keep playing more even tho its pretty linear. I love all the characters, Eve gaining confidence though out the story, D1G-g2r is so cute love how he wants to find out why he has sentience. The Sound track is so good I would just sit and listen to it at camp or running around the desert and wastelands. The space elevator section has such a grand feel climbing all the way into space with the music backing up that feeling perfectly. Hyper tubes are really fun to surf down wish there were more of them. The Nikke DLC stages are really fun wish there was more then 5, makes me want to play Nikke just to get more like it but then I remember its a mobile game and don't want to deal with mobile game mechanics. Uh I wish I was good at writing I'm missing so much stuff but can't figure out how to write it down.
