Quoting: scaineI discovered this game by accident just before Christmas, a couple of days into the co-op beta, and me and my three mates played it for over 50 hours over the Christmas period.

It's absolutely stunning. My Steam review goes into detail, but basically, even in early access, this game has launched itself into my (ever-changing) Top Ten Games of All Time.

I'm a sucker for fantasy RPGs, but the way they mix meaty combat, progression, and puzzles is sublime. The graphics and animations are simply five-star too. Incredible game.

I was so inspired by your post that I bought it and convinced my friend to buy it. Turns out the co-op beta has ended 😆 We just have to wait until release on 22/1 😀

Oof, haha! I mean, it's literally the first line of this article, but I can see how you overlooked it!! I wasn't aware it was a time-limited beta either, and my mate was like "the co-op is gone!" in early January! At least it's only a week away now! Still a great game single-player, but definitely lends itself to a multi-player playthrough, it's so much more fun, especially when you're building out your townhouse (whichever one you end up buying) in Sacrament!

I had seen a YT talking about playing it together with friends. For some reason I just assumed the co-op beta would run up until release. When I saw you talking warm about the game I was like - "OK this guy likes Poe2, he get's it. Time to pull the trigger!" 😆 I mean it's totally my fault but it's only a few days. I just have to live with my friends making fun over me for hyping this up 😊

Quoting: DwayneA great game indeed. I hope they can get a big 1.0 launch soon, this game is special and I hope they succeed massively.

1 M sales in Early Access is a good sign :)

Quoting: eevWhatever the price may be, I'm hoping Valve can at least make the new Machine a very stable experience with all the lessons learned through the Deck and with these updates. We should all care a bit more about the easy on boarding for people unfamiliar with Linux and PCs perhaps, especially in keeping performance up.

I agree. Even if the Steam Machine turns out a failure, the software improvements will hopefully be a huge boon for Linux distros.

Quoting: benjamimgoisThanks for the post Liam ! GamingonLinux recognition makes a lot of difference.

Goverlay started as a GUI for overlay (mangohud), but the scope got broader. I'm thinking about rebrand the project. Maybe some community feedback / suggestions would be cool.

I always thought the 'G' stood for Gaming. TIL :) Now that it's more of a collection or gathering of tools maybe a name change is prudent? I would probably keep the G to keep it a little recognizable.

- GCore
- GAssembly
- GCentral
- GCentre
- GMachina

Good luck and thanks for all you work :)

Quoting: dpanterSnap? Uh, no. No thanks.

Cannonical is just annoying… What's more - it's not like they created something exceptionally new, they just want to ride the hype wave on something that mostly other created…

That's a weird argument. Building on the work of others is like the whole stick of open-source.

Quoting: BrokattFor once I actually played most of the games on the list. It's very positive that almost all games are indie and not AAA.

Silksong was an experience to play. Looking forward to the DLC unless that one also develop into it's own game just because Team Cheery can't stop themselves ;) Both Peak and RV there yet have been a blast with friends. Baldurs Gate 3 have gotten classes, cut scenes and even a Linux port since release. I haven't finished Dispatch yet but the story is interesting. I will get around to Clair Obscur, Arc Raiders, Hades II and Silent Hill f at some point. If I can only stop playing Path of Exile 2...

One does not simply stop playing Path of Exile 2...

You said it. Although I have promised myself to stop when No Rest for the Wicked releases their co-op update. Maybe I will manage to get to Arbiter by then? :) I love Poe2 but as it stands it's simply not a good multiplayer experience.

Quoting: BrokattGreat! Looking forward to february.

Anyone knows if they removed the annoying window that popus up every time you start a controller, requiring you to give permission to the controller to actually control things?

The what now?? Is that a Plasma window, or a Steam one? Got a screenshot?

It may be something unique for Steam Controller? I will post a pic when I get home. It's similar to the one @mr-victory linked to.
