Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI wonder the purpose of the Track prefix files [External Link] feature.

I guess Proton will have several versions of WINe and will run the more appropriate for each game...

Hopefully, because once a game works perfect for me with (for example) 3.7-3 I don't see a point in updating it risking breakage.

Quoting: j3kylI noticed that all my "Windows" games had a minor update of 300MB. Obviously unrelated to the game itself as most of those were released years ago! :D

I almost dropped a tear when I saw a update on Stalker SOC! haha

For me, only Codename Gordon got a 343M update, but it still doesn't work. :-(

Quoting: buenaventuraWow, yeah Kentucky Route Zero is worth every penny, it's a fantastic, amazing game! Buy it! I am a patron of Cardboard Computers (who make KRZ) and they are such awesome devs. Act V is on the way! (perhaps late 2018/early 2019).

Wait, so it's still not complete? I've been hovering my mouse over that game lately, good thing I haven't started it...

Finally playing through Rise of the Tomb Raider, after installing that additional 8GB I bought because of this game's recommended specs. ;-)

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI wonder WHY this project is not backed by Valve...
I mean, A LOT of the legacy steam games are DX9 and this will improve performance.

I would guess getting *new* games to work on SteamOS has a priority over the backlog. But I agree they should care more about it, people switching to Linux will definitely look at what percentage of their whole library is supported, and that includes older titles.

Hopefully they add it to the Dungeons bundle, for an extra -20%.

Quoting: PhlebiacTell Tale Games (...) tend to run well in Wine.

I tried The Walking Dead on SteamOS and the controller didn't work, also the mouse cursor disappeared right after the menu loaded. So I wouldn't say it's playable, let alone running well. But it did work for me some years ago on the steam client installed with wine (I completed the first chapter).

I hope it's not Feral announcing they will only be making Mac ports from now on, because Linux has got Proton. :P But seriously, I think it will be some kind of announcement in relation to the recent developments, maybe they got a proposal from Valve to do SteamPlay certification / fixes and they will handle entire catalogues of big AAA studios? On the other hand, they wouldn't mention Mac if it was about SteamPlay, would they. Hm...

Quoting: muntdefemsAs for the Electioneering DLC, they must've forgotten to add the icon to the store page, as it is indeed available for Linux since earlier this month:
https://steamdb.info/app/245470/history/?changeid=5035624 [External Link]

That's good to know, thanks. Though I checked steamdb before posting and there's no tux icon there either: https://steamdb.info/app/483450/ [External Link] but I suppose it may be like with Payday 2 dlcs - no tux icon but still work.
