Quoting: ageresAnother day, another broken quest… It cannot be completed with any multiplayer game, only with Remote Play. Find a local coop game.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is gorgeous.

Quoting: tmtvlOh well, it's the dawn of a new decade, who knows what the 2020's will bring.
On the short run, stagnating Linux gamer percentage, declining growth of games supported by proton (because low and medium hanging fruits have been harvested already), less new native games (You do have Proton alright!?).

On the long run, the last console generation, cloud gaming. So you could say we're first class citizens finally... in a gaming world most of us don't fancy.

I wonder how often people actually adapt their answers to the "When was the last time you used ..." questions...

Quoting: 95ych0I've never played any of Half Life. I hear such acclaim about it. Can I get into the series by playing Black Mesa without playing the original?
I'm in the same boat and wonder about the same.

Quoting: GuestCool for the makers to have gotten this. Can't help having the feeling Epic is trying to buy goodwill of the gamers.
The game itself...kinda looks outdated already to me. But it does ooze atmosphere.
In my humble opinion, they're not exaggerating about Scratches. It wasn't technically the best, but a very memorable experience. So I'm looking forward!

They will be making good use of Epic's money! ;-)

The grant is money with no strings attached and is happening at the best possible time for us. We're going to use this cash on booze and drugs because we really need them to complete the project...

Quoting: denyasisOn a side note, how is slime rancher for young kids? In particular, ones that can't read yet. I'd like to introduce them to the world of Linux gaming, but finding games for kids that young (and not so stupidly annoying to an adult) is a lot harder than I thought.

Happy holidays.

My own kid was able to enjoy it quite a lot, thankfully there's not a big amount of reading needed to get the basic idea down.
I guess in that age, you should accompany your kids anyway when they are playing computer games (at least when the game is new). It's still theory for me, though. :)
