Yes, the simplicity of that switch is REALLY nice. I'm with @HxE though, I honestly don't mind a slowly rolling release. I'll look forward to it when it comes. Won't be long.

Quoting: nullzeroNice video Liam, I have to try it then. Combat does indeed look sloppy, and all those attempts to climb a box to destroy a camera... Is the VR mode combat more satisfying?I wouldn't count on it. If the remaster of SS1 is any indication, SS2 would release around 2035. And they burned a LOT of kickstarter/indiegogo bridges by delaying this game like 6 years. So they don't even have that to start with.
That is a bit worrying since they also intend to remaster System Shock 2.
Mesa 23.0 out now improving open source graphics drivers

The current stable release of Mesa as listed on their site (https://mesa3d.org/) is 22.3.6 which is in unstable branch on Manjaro ... so it needs to get into testing, then stable. THEN Mesa 23 can enter into unstable and start testing.
I'm moreso waiting on plasma 5.27!

Does this compare at all with Naev? I've been wanting to try something like these, but not sure which one is a good starting point.
EVERSPACE 2 gets a Steam Deck and Linux release update

Quoting: KohlyKohlI suppose you're right ... oh how nice it'd be for linux native to be the default, then "windows support" later on lol.Quoting: Jarmerdoesn't ue4 work very well on proton? Sometimes I wonder, if that is the case, is it even worth it for them to do a native release? Or is that blasphemy to say? I'm just thinking dev time to upkeep two independent platforms maybe could be better spent on the game itself if it works exactly the same in proton vs native.The more games that support Linux the better the developer ecosystem becomes.
KDE Plasma 5.27 released with multi-monitor & Wayland upgrades, Steam Deck updater

Yes!!!!!! Ok ... I do love me some multi monitor improvements (although I don't really have much to complain about currently) but this has got me super happy!!
"Save power with one keystroke: While on the lock screen, hit the Esc key to turn off the screen and save some power."
WOOOO!!! Biggest thing I missed when I changed distros from popos with its custom gnome to manjaro with kde. I know, might seem trivial, but I hated waiting for my monitors to time out, especially at night.

I loved this game so much when it came out. Unfortunately I just suck SO BAD at it, and the repetitive nature of the rouge-like design killed all interest in it for me very quickly. I really just wish there was a "I suck" mode for difficulty setting that would let me progress to some of the more fun enemies / maps without replaying the same beginning 100 times.
