Quoting: kaimanThe only bug I remember was audio not working 50% of the time. Restarting once or twice and it would be fine for the remainder of the session. But when it came up silent on the intro screen, silent it remained.
This should be fixed (according to the developers an my experience).

Quoting: kaimanit has the ugly face of existing socialism lurking right beneath a very, very shallow surface.
But this not, obviously.

Though I did always want Linux users to get to play the game if I had the opportunity to do so, and fortunately it worked out.
That's what we've discussed lately. Artists want to enable as many people as possible to play their games.

I've got nothing to add to that. It's just what I've been playing recently.
Do add Portal Stories: MEL in hard mode.

Quoting: AcrophobicI've been playing Terraria lately. I've never played sandbox game before but I've heard many good thing about it. Since it was dirt cheap on last sale, I bought it. Unfortunately, I don't really like it, but somehow I can't stop playing it.
That does sound strange.
Like some drug...

I played through Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love. Still not totally sure what to think of it. It is a good point and click adventure, but it's strange to have a funny adventure about "real socialism"...

BTW, anybody had crashes on saving with this adventure as well?

Often is extremely unprecise when you could be extremely precise. It's like drawing a heart... from an open deck.

We should be doing this all the time: Documenting easy stuff. It seems Linux users tend to document what's complicated but not what's easy, which sometimes leads me to outdated complicated hints when in reality the stuff I'm looking for has already become very easy to do. Which in turn makes people think Linux is even more complicated than it actually is.

Quoting: chancho_zombieI never know where the official Valve Proton Compatible is. Luckily I found this Steam Curator that what he does is tag the games that are officially Proton compatible

OT: Anybody knows a curator warning against loot boxes in all those games that have them?
