Quoting: KristianThat is true enough. But if all the games leave Steam for Epic's store, Steam won't continue to have "the most users".Steam users have game libraries built over years, they aren't going to drop steam just because there's a better deal or a cool exclusive game in the other store. Steam can lose some player-hours but certainly not users.

I love Valve and Steam as much as the next guy, but I'm increasingly annoyed by all the crap games flooding the store, to the point I'm considering stopping browsing it altogether. For people that don't have time for shovelling through trash, a curated store could be a great place to move to, let's see if Epic realises this opportunity.

I recommend trying out LEGO City Undercover. It worked since the initial release of proton but the sound was glitched (background effects were at full volume without the way to change it). Since proton 3.16-5 the sound is fixed and the game is perfectly playable, my kids are 65h in, with 95% completion. It crashes occasionally but judging by the reviews, it's typical to Windows as well, maybe even more so.

> This isn't the kind of moto trials game you would expect
Having played lots of XMoto, this is *exactly* the kind of moto trials game I would expect. ;-)

I wanted to get Puzzle Puppers, but then I remembered that itch.io prices are fake, they add VAT on checkout. So I'll wait and get it on a steam sale instead.

Nice, I hate teamwork. :P
Although I think it would be better if they released the new mode as a standalone spinoff.

Cosmic horror metroidvania 'Lore Finder' has comfortably passed the Linux day-1 release goal

2. I learnt not to trust any (Linux release) promises, I just take things as they come, and with a grain of salt on top.
3. I have nothing against this particular dev (just sort of commenting on the general trend), sorry if anyone felt offended by the insinuation, but of course I'll be more happy to be proved wrong. :-)

Quoting: scaineYou keep putting smilies, but it's clear you're actually serious, which is a shame. (...) this stretch goal wasn't for Linux support - they committed to that anyway. The stretch goal was for simultaneous launch.1. Note that my comment was also about the day-1 promise, not about the Linux version in general.

"Since Valve are seemingly discontinuing their own Steam Link device, along with Steam Link applications for mobile devices"
