Quoting: subI'm standing. Always.
Tbh, so far I have not crossed a game that supports seated playing.
Which ones are you using?

I think the trick is that the game assumes you're standing...

They've now announced that Community Recommendations has officially shipped as part of Steam, giving you ideas to play based on recent reviews. I was told by Valve press on this, that it should be getting patched to respect your Platform Preferences (bottom here) to only show games from operating systems ticked.

I just tried it and I had only recommendations that actually are available for Linux.

Quoting: Patola[If you were convinced by this example, I would say that: never use the limits of your own imagination as an argument or a point.

He didn't though, he actually literally asked: "how much would Stellaris or Civilization or whatnot get from going VR?"

Quoting: TheRiddickI always manage to loose my previous game save files, and to top it off completely forget what the hell I did in that playthrough. DA Inquisition had a way of solving this by letting you pick the backstory and import it in the new games to keep continuity.

On the other hand, if you forgot most of it (like me), continuity is not that important, right?

Quoting: randylTTheir PR contacts didn't seem aware of Proton at all until I mentioned that is how I got the game working.

:huh:

Quoting: ShmerlYou should think beyond koolaid logic here.

(I don't know what that means, seems to be a US thing.)

Quoting: ShmerlIt's about technology progress.

I don'T care too much about the technology. I prefer my renderings in real fullscreen, too. It's just that I don't see how the technology would affect me. neither negatively nor positively.

Quoting: herbertAs he said you just missing the point. It does increase quality if you set lower settings.

I explained my point. It decreases quality in comparison with using high settings.

Yeah, obviously.
And calculating only for the real resolution decreases quality in comparison with supersampling.
By the way, usual rendering decreases quality compared to raytracing.
So everything below raytracing is to be avoided.

Sure, the feature is a compromise, but every computer rendering is compromise.

Quoting: EhvisHow about letting the community finish this one [External Link] first! Open source projects do tend to take their time.

The FAQ is missing an entry about Linux...

"not afraid of Half-Life no more"

I understand that fear. HL3 couldn't ever have lived up to the enormous expectations.

Quoting: ShmerlThere is no magic replacement for compute power. If you increase resolution, reconstructed image can only be an approximation, no matter how much machine learning you'll throw at it. That's just how it works by definition.

Yes, obviously. Every computer graphic trying to mimic reality is an approximation, by the way.

The technology is better at creating a higher resolution image then current technologies by what I've seen. If you want to buy a card that can compute a 8K 240Hz resolution with supersampling anti-aliasing, nobody is keeping you from doing so.

I don't understand you negativity. What are you fearing?
