Quoting: JajcusFree puzzle game for Linux? Sure, take my $2!Try adding "-force-glcore42" to your launch options. That fixes the performance (mostly) and stability problems for me.
But then I tried to play it. Performance is terrible, somewhat playable on 'low' graphics, but it looks bad then. Ok, I have just a laptop (even if called 'gaming'), but for such a simple game it should be enough.
And then it crashed, just after solving the first puzzle… :-(

Quoting: PatolaWhat about real-time raytracing of shadows? Does it have them like the Windows version?No raytracing. Personally I don't care. But I do care about the price. I'll wait for a slightly better sale.
NVIDIA have released the stable 440.31 driver update for Linux, plus a new Vulkan beta driver

AMD does still seem to have trouble supporting their new hardware properly at launch with their open source drivers, as evidenced by the RX 5700. That leads to people jumping through all kinds of hoops to install bleeding edge stuff to get things running properly. Doesn't mean all AMD users have to do it though. I'd have gone back to Nvidia already if that was the case.

Quoting: PangaeaI like that this process is so easy. It's even part of Driver Manager, so no need to do anything. Just a (very rare) restart, and that's that. Everything works. Wish it was the same with AMD, but it is what it is :(What do you mean? Adding a PPA isn't that hard. :)

Quoting: TcheyI much prefer turn based if grid based system, like in Heroes of Broken Lands, StarCrawlers, The Quest, and some others. Or at the very least, static combats. I do hate square dancing.I guess I might prefer those as well then. I was never a big fan of the real-time variant, even if it didn't manage to put me off these games completely.

Quoting: TcheyCould be an amazing game, and i will probably...Isn't that how all of these first person dungeon crawlers have always worked, starting with Dungeon Master? Why did you expect this one to be any different.
real-time combatpass.
Arhg, whyyyyyy !

Quoting: namikoIt's an issue of responsibility: How much should the average citizen be responsible for their own foolish mistakes? Some think government should take more responsibility for these mistakes, others, less responsibility.The average citizen is fine. It's the most vulnerable of us who need a hand. Survival of the fittest is not a sound social policy.

Quoting: fagnerlnI have to say I enjoyed Rise just as much as the first one. Reviews aren't bad either, so I must not be the only one. But I'd suggest you get Tomb Raider (2013) first simply because it's the cheapest and the first in the reboot series.Quoting: JanneIf you'd buy one Tomb Raider, which one do you recommend?Tomb Raider = Very Good
Rise of the Tomb Raider = Very Bad
Shadow of the Tomb Raider = Good

Quoting: EhvisMaybe it took so long because they ported off the DX12 version and couldn't fully leverage their existing tooling and code? Wishful thinking, I know, even if it would technically make sense. Especially in the long run.Quoting: PatolaWill it have RTX and DLSS like the Windows version [External Link]? I would very much like to test my RTX 2070 SUPER with it...I would too. But since they likely ported off the DX11 version, I don't expect it will.
