Vintage Story is fantastic! I'm going to start a new world with this new version ASAP!

There's these tons of games needing 32 bit anyway?!?

Is there though? 32 bit Windows games can be run on 64 bit Wine / Proton without the need for 32 bit libraries. In my experience, the vast majority of native games are already 64 bit.

I've been running 64 bit only for two years now, and have yet to come across a game I can't play.

Valve needs to join the 2010's, and move the Steam client to 64 bit.

Though, there isn't a Linux version there yet.

I thoroughly enjoyed the parts of The Long Dark I played, but it will be cold day in hell before I give Hinterland anymore of my money.

I had somehow missed that EU-IV was on GOG! 90% off for the base game, and several selected expansions is a pretty good deal...

I'd just like to see Valve move into the 2010's and make the Steam client 64-bit.

Quoting: WMan22I wish there was an auto swap utility akin to prime-run/Nvidia Optimus where I could use the proprietary driver for games that run better with it, and NVK for games that run better with that, like A Hat In Time.

Even if I could use it by just swapping to it like a desktop environment in SDDM, where it'd be like Plasma (NVK Wayland) or (NVK X11)

This way I could like, check on the progress periodically without compromising my core experience, cause hot damn NVK is moving impressively fast in terms of updates and new features.

You can do it at the boot-level. On my old Maxwell based laptop I had grub setup with two entries for the same kernel, one that blacklisted nouveau, and one that blacklisted nvidia. It was a pretty manual process - I had to edit the grub config after every kernel update. Someone smarter than me could probably automate that though.

My current laptop is Pascal based, and nouveau sucks on it. I'm stuck with the proprietary driver. Anything Turing and newer should work fine though.

SiN [External Link] is 75% off ($3.40 for us Canucks). Works well on Linux with this [External Link].

I'm pretty excited about this. I have a Maxwell GPU that supports manual re-clocking, so the clock speed isn't an issue. Nouveau performance is ... reasonable, except running Vulkan, where it's terrible. With more and more games running Vulkan, whether natively, or via DXVK, it was getting pretty limiting running Nouveau. I'm back to the proprietary driver for now.
