What file system format does the microSD card use on Steam Deck?

Steam Deck microSD cards use ext4 with casefolding - Steam Deck formats SD cards to the proper format.

There's a compatibility problem lurking here for all who are running case sensitive filesystems - which should be about everybody.

Probably better for Windows games though?

If you got the feature enabled, yay, if you don't: Developers testing for Steam Deck will not have/find the problem.

Quoting: NanobangJust wanna give a shout out to Italian author Italo Calvino whose BRILLIANT and FUN novel If on a Winter's Night a Traveler (IOAWNAT) was clearly the near namesake of this game. I'm going to have to play it just to see if the similarities end there. The content as described sounds like it's original to the game, but I'd love to see if any of IOAWNAT's clever structural playfulness was brought over.

I heard there's no connection beyond the name. But if you keep your expectations accordingly, something interesting awaits.

The DLC features a nice art book and the good, melancholic sound track. The game is totally worth some bucks, but you can decide after playing yourself...

Quoting: FrawoYes, Steam Machines failed, but I'm still somewhat disappointed that a "pro consumer" company like CDPR/GOG needs financial incentives to do native Linux ports. I always thought they where striving for ideals, but now it looks like they are all about money these days.

Aren't you dissapointed in them, too? I've seen comments from you in their community wishlist.

They didn't stop for financial reasons. They stopoed because people were insulting them after Witcher II wasn't good at Linux release. Which is totally what I expect from a human and humane company: Protect their people from such behaviours. To me, it was the darkest hour of Linux gaming: We're not all nice people, like I'd like to think.

Procession to Calvary wasn't only interestingly looking and funny (in the Monty Python way), but also a surprisingly decent point and click adventure! Wish listed.

Quoting: GuestMakes me wonder if the fast play data could also be used to pre cache data to ram for faster game loading in general since they both would need to know which data is used at what points during gameplay. I know nothing on the subject though...

Absolutely:

...discarding of unused blocks of game data to free up local memory resources, and/or local prefetching of game data for reducing latency during gameplay.

Quoting: AciDSometimes Steam downloads 60+ updates the same day.
I indeed want to see the update notes, since the "News" banner in the library is very, very limited (and algorithmically curated, which is wrong imho).

Displaying the downloads with the same tiled view than in the library would be better in my opinion.

On a screen like yours, they might even try to fit (parts of the) update news themselves on the screen...

Quoting: elmapul"- Add ARM support"
wth '-', serious? there is any wine-arm?

I guess having something included is easier if it tastes less like "our special solution to run proprietary software, on amd64 only".
