Quoting: Phlebiacoh wow, I can see that now. But that's beyond hidden. So much so I've been using steam for like 2 decades and I didn't even know that was there! Oh well, good to know for now thank you!Quoting: Jarmer^ what's also frustrating about that, is even when you have steam itself set to use whatever version of proton as the default (so for me it's proton-cachyos-11) - if there's a native linux build, you often won't even know it's running on that instead of proton.It's a little hidden, but in the Steam library, if you click on the (i) to "Show game details" there is a "Runs on this computer" section that indicates what runtime is used. That could be Steam Linux Runtime, Proton, etc.

I'll be waiting for full release + reading up on community thoughts since this title has had such a cursed development cycle. No idea what to expect.

Sometimes I only even know it's happening because of what you said: weird issues / glitches / crashing. Then I go into the game properties, and go to the "force the use" and select whatever version of proton and it'll work so much better.

Ahhhhhh yes this is what I have always wanted. For the longest time, I have told my wife "you know, with my limited game time, what I REALLY REALLY REALLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY want is a flood of extremely low quality garbage that I have to sift through to get to anything worth playing. That's what I dream of"
And now it's coming true! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 🤬

This is pretty much the only factory game I have ever been able to get into past a tutorial. I love it. It's the fact that there's no enemies, no timers, no resources, just building and figuring stuff out while I jam to some good music.

I absolutely love Town to City and think it's a wonderful game (from the demo) ... BUT ... this whole thing gives me pause. This is a very small dev studio who has a current game (town to city) in early access, and is making announcements and starting work (I guess not "starting" but rather way into) into a completely different separate game? I know they say this is a separate group of devs but still. I don't think it's good. Time will tell.

Quoting: spacemonkeyToo expensive for a controller I want, but don't needThis is exactly me. I only ever use controller gaming on the couch with my buddy, and we have two 8bitdo controllers that work perfectly fine and combined cost LESS than this single valve controller. Wow that price.

Are Canonical and Mozilla the same place? LOL it seems like they are doing the exact same things step by step. And by "same exact things" I mean "stupid dumb bullshit nobody asked for but is being forced down our throats".
