There is no hope to draw the attention of HOMM fans from anything other than HOMM3. They already have the game they want, just make peace with that.

I actually find the new name funny, so I don't mind it, but yeah, it won't get the stated goal.

It's just that the headline is somewhat misleading. There is a fix for Linux sound, and FSR 4 for AMD GPUs. i.e. video cards in PCs. FSR 4 requires dedicated AI acceleration chips to work, and the Steam Deck doesn't have that.

Well... I may or may not have in my hands one of those RDNA4 cards that suport FSR4, and may or may not have this particular game, but of course, who would be so crazy to try an unofficial unsupported workaround to get FSR4 on Linux. I am absolutely not rebuilding Mesa as we speak, that would be crazy.

Looking at my wishlist, the problem is that I see no release date in most of it... by the way Liam, I have "At Fate's end", but release date is 2026...?

- "Terminator 2D: No fate" (05/09/2025). This one is looking real, and real good.

- And honestly, to me, most everything else just falls under the category of "waiting for Mechanicus II", or "keeping busy until Mechanicus II comes out".

If you really want to try it out, there are guides out there that show you how to use FSR4 on Linux but official support is still ongoing and making some progress. Here's one video that shows how to get FSR4 on Linux: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajHRwWvem1M [External Link]

That's excellent. Looking much sooner than I thought.

... but... FSR4 doesn't work on Linux and it won't for quite a while .... ?

I just want to double-down on Liam's recommendation, the campaigns of this game are really lots of fun like we haven't seen in a while.

Also to bring up Moduwar, which released yesterday in Early Access, Linux native build, very interesting idea and fun so far.

I think it is worth mentioning that most games have worked on Windows ARM either day one or after a couple of Snapdragon driver patches, anyway, without need of support from the developer. It's just the usual suspects, Fortnite and Valorant and League of Legends and perhaps PUBG and their shenanigans, that give trouble as they give trouble also in Linux.

Wait a second... Ubisoft is "Triple iii" indie now?

Not a comment on EAC specifically, but I don't understand as Fromsoft as a developer, how can you look at their experience with AC6, and go "hey, let's try that multiplayer thing again!".

Oh man... good work, but BNet doesn't deserve Eggy.
