Quoting: BumadarI soooooo want this to be good, be like the original, please please please.

But I guess it can probably never compete with that first time experience no matter how hard they try, so i should try to remain neutral and open minded:)

Look at you hacker.....
The original System Shock is fantastic! I still vividly recall the first time I played it.

Granted, it was only a couple of weeks ago.... :whistle:

Epic Games are killing off a bunch of classics like Unreal Tournament

Yeah, ironically there's actually less DRM on the Epic store then there is on Steam.

I haven't actually bought anything on Epic yet, but most of the giveaway games I have been interested in runs fine in Wine/Proton without the store client running.

What I want to see in 2023 for Linux, Gaming, Steam Deck and more

Wishes are boring. I'm a bit psychic, so here are some predictions instead:
  • Elon Musk tires of the slow development pace of Proton and tries to buy Valve
  • A game is released that uses nothing but emojis as a title causing several storefronts to crash
  • GOG changes name to OGO - Old Games Outlet

Quoting: Arcadius-8606This trend in the Linux gaming space is extremely off putting. Makes me stay further away for things like Steam since it seems to be causing mental disorders. Any store that sell linux games without a client can get my coin.
I don't think it's the subject matter. We're always going to have discussions like these. Do you know what the collective noun for a group of Linux users is? It is an argument of Linux users.

Steam Replay gives you an overview of your 2022 gaming habits

Fallout: New Vegas: You picked up this game for the first time and were immediately hooked.

Yep. Largest amount of hours in a single game and it pretty much dethroned Fallout 2 as my favorite Fallout. Still got the DLC to look forward to!

I play a lot of games outside of Steam so I keep track and do my own end of the year report. So far I have wasted about 17 days or 4.6% of the year playing games...

Quoting: JRayLambI've got a couple of other games on my wishlist and maybe once I get to it, I'll pick this one up *if* I don't need the amdgpu-pro drivers for it.
They used to require the proprietary drivers for the older version of the game. It looks like the Steam page haven't been updated.

Their own webpage [External Link] have the correct information:
"We require the Mesa drivers, version 22.0 or newer, for AMD to run X-Plane."
