Quoting: Liam DaweBut this feels like it’s going to descend into another silly Proton argument.

Not from me at least. I'm glad that people enjoy playing games with Proton.

Quoting: Phlebiac

Quoting: Linux_RocksMore choices and customization is always a good thing for the end user.

I was going to say: "just use the little penguin icon to filter" to "Show only games that run on Linux" as the tooltip says. But... it looks like they broke that? Perhaps related to what you are complaining about.

That's the main part of it, yes. Before when you switched Steam Play off in the settings, it only showed native Linux games with the filter.

Quoting: Liam DaweSteam Play is more than Proton, it's also the containerized Linux Runtimes.

This is good to know, as I was only going off of the naming in the Steam client settings. My bad, I thought it was just a general term for their compatibility stuff.

If I came off as a jerk, then my bad again. I just wanna be able to know what's what in my Steam library. I've got a huge library on Steam. So being able to filter and sort things properly is important to me.

Basically I'd turn it off, then sort what needs to be sorted by OS, and then I'd turn it back on just for Boxtron. Linux native games going into my Linux category, other games going into my Windows category, and any 64-bit (now Apple Silicon too) macOS games also going into my Mac category. Along with a Software category for any regular software on Steam.

Quoting: Linux_RocksYes, but can you disable Steam Play yet? Is the button fixed? If you enable all titles for Steam Play and then disable that part, does Steam still list all games? My PC is in storage and I can't check. I doubt either are fixed despite these crumbs to native Linux games.

Why would you want to disable it? Can't see why that would make sense for Valve to even let you nowadays.

Why should we be forced to use it? More choices and customization is always a good thing for the end user. If I decide to not use it, then I should be able to turn it off like the settings should (and used to) allow. I don't wanna use Proton. I wanna know what is and isn't Linux native in my Steam library.

It's great that Proton is a thing and that it works as well as it does. It's not something that interests me, cause I dual-boot. I only use Windows for gaming at this point, but I paid for a license. So I'm gonna use said license.

Rivals of Aether II is gonna be awesome. I can't wait to see what the community makes when the Steam Workshop support drops in a year or so. The cool indie characters brought to the first game on the workshop are why I double dipped and also bought it on Steam (had it on the Switch). There's a development roadmap video [External Link] that the devs posted on YouTube.

Also, and just because, here's the song Lesbian Seagull [External Link], and a story about it too [External Link].

The best TRON game intro was on TRON: Solar Sailor [External Link] on the Intellivision [External Link] from 1982. It used the voice module. While the best TRON game to me is TRON 2.0 [External Link]. Which is available on Steam [External Link] and GOG [External Link].
