Men of War II releases May 15th with Linux support
4 May 2024 at 4:30 pm UTC

We are really spoiled for choice. Broken Arrow should be releasing also relatively soon-ish TM.

Quoting: LungDragoThe previous games (Men of War, Men of War Asasult Squad) have been stellar games superior in many ways to Company of Heroes (the more popular WWII RTS). So I have high expectactions for this one.
Came to say this, more or less. Can any of the critics present us with that great alternative, recent or upcoming game that is even better than MoW2? (Spoiler alert: we have already seen and played demos of MoW2 and Broken Arrow)

I talk about Riot and why they're a no for me, and why their software is a no for my PC.

Quoting: ElamanOpiskelijaI just wanted to play games... why are you guys forcing me to think?
What's forcing me to think is the blatant conflict between your avatar image and the distro icon next to your name. :huh:

(Just kidding. I'm pretty sure liking more than one distro is allowed.)
Garuda for the desktop, and Mint for the really old laptop, which had rolling distros for many years but I don't feel like abusing that poor old Intel anymore.

Garuda, to be honest, starting to give issues after a few years, but it was a good run... almost 3 years with Garuda now.

Command & Conquer The Ultimate Collection launched on Steam (and other classics)

Quoting: tpauA proper Remake for C&C Generals would be great.
Or Red Alert 2. I am thinking the same. With C&C remastered already out, and OpenRA, it's hard to go back to these.

NVIDIA 550.54.14 driver released as stable

Quoting: Linux_RocksI think that screen flicker bug that got fixed was the same one that I was seeing in GZDoom while in the Doom menu. I was wondering WTF was up, cause I hadn't seen it like that before. lol

Yes, I play Doom and Chex Quest on a 4090. 👀
Perfectly good game choices, I am more curious about the heavy investment of a 4090, and yet running it on Linux.

Hey! I had already figured out my workaround for Tekken. Now it comes already fixed. What am I supposed to do? Actually play now?

So... The Riftbreaker?

Has anyone tried out Moduwar? also Linux native, very interesting idea.

Age of Empires IV gets a fix for Steam Deck / Linux online play desyncs
31 Jan 2024 at 5:33 pm UTC

I had to read this article several times.
- Microsoft... has fixed...
- Wait, Valve?
- NONONONONO... MICROSOFT... has fixed... they have fixed... their game to run on Linux.

This is a very long standing, very prolific issue. These are the same binaries needed to fix the online desyncs for Age of Empires 2, Mortal Kombat 11... very recently Tekken 8.

Proton normally doesn't address this (think AoE2-old) so I never expected this to be fixed by Valve, so I recently recommended someone just to never play Age of Empires 4 on Linux.

So in summary, Microsoft just shut my mouth big time.

Anyway I will still maintain, this is not a game to play with gamepad controllers!

The Pokémon Company confirm investigation into Palworld

I see the similarities and to me Palworld clearly looks like a parody. But, is it such a problem that all these people are having fun?
