Guess I will still be stuck with my GTX 1070... Gotta love those pixel art games :grin:

Newly playable as of this update are GreedFall,[...]
I am also confused, I already played the game (I think it was one of the first non-native game I played when I switched to Linux), and I didn't face any issue ?

I can only agree with RTheren, the game is good (I need to play it again, making different story choices this time :smile:)

BattlEye confirms Linux support for Steam Deck, will be opt-in like Easy Anti-Cheat

Quoting: Mal[...]Sad as it may be the quicker way to make "those few clicks" happen would be for them to find the nuts to ask gamers a commission with a DLC (e.g.: 10$ - Game on linux DLC: adds support for playing on proton).
That would be incredible, let's go ! :grin:

Happy Birthday to Linux, 30 years strong

Quoting: AussieEevee
Quoting: furaxhornyxWhile I agree that DaVinci Resolve is a great software (I am not a video editor though), I guess it is not enough to make a lot of people make the switch.
The problem I see is tunnel vision. When something becomes big and popular, many people can't understand that there are viable alternatives.

I have seen people on YouTube talking about Adobe Premier as if it is the only way to edit videos professionally... and they can't see anything else.
Maybe, maybe not...

I use Excel at work, and I have tried several alternatives that "just do the same things", which may be true for most basic features, but far from it when it comes to advanced use.

So maybe it is the same for other software, such as video editing, photo editing... I am not in their professional shoes (far from it) to be able to tell wether they are viable replacements or not.

Quoting: AussieEeveeHeck, I know people that think Windows is a must have for gaming. They refuse to acknowledge that Linux even exists, let alone is a viable alternative. Had an argument not long ago with someone that thought only Windows could be used in high end gaming.
As for video games, of course, it is a different story, since it is the same software running on the same machine (but with different level of support: drivers, etc) :smile:

Steam Client Beta updated with PipeWire desktop capture for Remote Play

Quoting: ElectricPrism[...]
My ex-linux audio recording buddies biggest complaint used to be PulseAudio was terrible & JACK was very difficult to configure and maintain (2016?). They are more hopeful that pipewire is better but yet to try it. [...]
Same here ; I looked into installing Pipewire a few months ago, but from a few forums posts, it still seemed to be not mature enough yet... And with my little Linux knowledge, I am afraid I cannot fix anything if it goes wrong, so I'll be waiting a bit more :smile:

The Humble Be the Bad Guy Bundle has Dungeons 3, Postal and more
16 Sep 2021 at 3:59 am UTC

Quoting: CFWhitmanI have no interest in being the bad guy. I never really understood the appeal.
Because it is fun, to be able to play the "other side".
Besides, games where you don't kill/smash anything are rare, beside maybe sport and pure "puzzles".

Out of curiosity, which games do you play ?

Legend of Keepers: Return of the Goddess expansion is out now

Purchased as well, this is a nice game to chill :smile:

Steam has turned 18 years old and PC gaming has never been the same since
14 Sep 2021 at 4:35 am UTC

According to Steam, my first purchase was Zeno Clash, in 2009.

I am pretty sure I had some Steam games before that though, such as Dark Messiah of Might & Magic...
