Fall Guys to become Epic Exclusive for new owners, so no Steam Deck support then

I claim the free games on Epic and played a few of them, but every time I get tempted to buy something on Epic I can't bring myself to follow through. As someone here once said, 'Steam treats Linux users like kings.'

Songs of Conquest looks good on Linux, works quite well on Steam Deck too

although currently the cut-scenes are upside down.

this is a hilarious bug, I hope it's never fixed.

In all seriousness, I've seen a bit of this played and have to agree with Liam, the game is so fantastic looking it's hard to even judge the rest yet. I have very high hopes for it.

I've been playing the 3rd one with an HD patch, but every time I see news on this cool project I regret my choice

strong hotline miami vibes here. I will say that one of the things that is missing in this footage and made hotline miami so fantastic (and that they botched in the sequel) were doors. Doors split up each level into a processions of miniature tactical puzzles and prevented you from getting blasted by offscreen enemies. Doors were great environmental weapons, and also allowed for varying levels of stealth. Let us all take a moment to appreciate all the things doors do.

Controller support for Path of Exile leaving Beta, should work great on Steam Deck

PoE is a great game. Zen flow-state gaming, criminally generous f2p model, 10 years of content, and fantastic linux performance.

If you have any love for aRPGs, you should definitely give it a go.

there's something so disrespectful about that pistol whip. I like these peeks into dead projects; this, fallout 3, etc.

That's amazing, they just chucked a 10$+ DLC into the base game? Time to (literally) dive back into Harran.

Star Labs add an AMD Ryzen option to the StarBook Mk V

isn't this a little expensive? I tried to fit up an XPS 13 with the same specs and got to about the same price, except that the XPS13 has a 4k screen, smaller bezels, and is much, much thinner (and a copy of everyone's favourite operating system, Windows 10 :grin:)

It always did feel like two very different games, this makes sense to me.
