Cyberpunk 2077 2.3 is out with new vehicles, auto drive, AMD FSR 4, Intel XeSS 2 and more

Thanks @toor !
Liam we don't have time to finish Cyberpunk, it's years after release, we must accept it at this point.

Impressive free and open source RTS 0 A.D. gets an essential patch update
18 Jul 2025 at 1:28 pm UTC

Quoting: TcheyPlaying it since forever, but... For me, the worst part of this game is to not have BAR (Beyond All Reason) formation tools, and the lack of proper collision between troops, bodies, etc... I HATE seeing my troops in melee all mixed together.
Can't believe that in 2025, the problem of an RTS is that it isn't more like BAR.

Good place to be in!

Silence of the Siren renames to Heroes of Science and Fiction to pull in more HoMM fans
16 Jul 2025 at 4:08 pm UTC

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.

The Last of Us Part I gets AMD FSR 4 and an audio fix for Steam Deck
9 Jul 2025 at 4:54 pm UTC

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.

A selection of upcoming games I'm excited to see release
9 Jul 2025 at 4:49 pm UTC

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 .... ?

Tempest Rising is truly an RTS worth your time for C&C fans

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.

As Epic Games continue ignoring Linux / Steam Deck for Fortnite they're putting it on Windows Arm
15 Mar 2025 at 4:48 pm UTC

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?
