Quoting: CatKillerOLEDs would benefit from screensavers for the same reasons as CRTs did.
I was about to post exactly that. I've seen flatscreens with horrible burn in. Also, CRTs still exist and are still being used. Sure, it's a niche – but if I'd go through the trouble and the costs of using one, I am pretty sure I wouldn't want to ruin it.

I am currently playing through Zombie Army Trilogy with a friend - calmly doing one or two levels every weekend while hanging out in discord. It is no L4D, but if you like sniping zombies (and don't mind the occasional unfair bit where you need to know in advance what's going to happen) it is good fun.
I recon it is more fun with more friends and pretty boring alone though.

Does this also work with the original SiN? I am asking because the SiN Gold versions are not sold by GOG or Steam here in Germany, but I think I still have the original game on CD somewhere...

I am going to play Crimson Skies again! On the Steam Deck - woohoo! :woot:

Add mpegvideo codec to ffmpeg
I wonder what else this might fix. One of the problems I have with the original Gothic is that none of the videos play properly. And that game is from 2001...

And if played on a Steam Deck, they'd be portable portals whilst playing Portal on a portable! :shock:
