Quoting: EhvisNice. Last night I went through my library to remove a bunch of "windows" tags from games. Looks like I need to do it again. Not complaining though. :grin:

I wanted to do the opposite lately, for ports given up. :-/

Dreams are coming true.
I've heard this considered to be among the best point and click adventures.
Let's find out why.

We actually are doing this with our build servers when something goes wrong. And it does help more often than not. :-D

I played the first three some years ago (and will have to replay now, as I don't remember much of the story :-D ). If you're into point and click, do play them.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI wonder why Sony are porting their games to the competitor's operating system instead of doing it for an own Linux distro.

I guess the PS5 operative system is technically more close to Linux than to Windows

Because they want to sell games?

I wonder if I need to change my view on phone gaming in times Feral Interactive brought Alien Isolation to phones. It's not all Candy Crush anymore...

unified save names for PC - MAC/Linux

Yes please!

I mostly play on my Linux box, but sometimes also on my wife's Windows :sad: PC and my father-in-law's gaming box, so that's very handy.

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualI still don't really get what the audience for the Steam Deck is. I kind of want to buy one, but then I remember I have no use for it. I can play games in bed with my laptop. I have 4 GNU/Linux computers already. If I'm outside, I don't want to play games, otherwise I wouldn't have gone outside.

I guess I don't really understand the portable gaming idea to begin with. I did play Pokemon a lot as a kid, but those days are long gone. I played a lot of mobile games when I was younger, too, but that was mostly the novelty of it rather than them being any good. I don't think that phase lasted very long.

I guess it doesn't help that a lot of the games I play involve using Textractor, copying text to the clipboard, looking it up in a J-J dictionary, and creating an Anki card. Not really the type of gaming suited for a small, portable device without a keyboard.

I just have no idea what to think, because I am clearly not the target audience for this.

Well, there's obviously a target audience for mobile gaming. The target audience for Steam Deck is mainly the intersection of these with the Steam users. They already own (often lots of) games running on Steam Deck, and they can play games bought for mobile on their PC as well.

The appeal of mobile gaming? Well, I'm not into it either, but I can understand that a laptop is too big for bed for many. And back in the days, before Covid, I was using public transports for a 3/4 hour to work and a 3/4 hour back. Time for gaming, maybe?

Quoting: damarrinDVDs in Poland had this.

Ahhh, like, "you wouldn't steal a car, so don't copy what's on the disc"?
