Thank you for the accuracy, hope your well deserved holiday was relaxing!
I don't know what they did with Ubisoft Connect, but it's definitely faster and more responsive. I've been out on XDefiant since the launch of season 2 broke everything for me. I tried to get back in to show a little support after it's implosion and it might actually be running better than it used to.

And I JUST uninstalled Marvel Rivals.... ok, now i gotta redownload it and keep them close cuz they are at least TRYING to be Linux friendly.

I'll play squirrel girl terribly for a couple matches once a week or so just to help keep the numbers up.

I feel like I'm the only Nobara user that couldnt figure out all the OBS "fixes" they implemented. I went back to the original OBS Studio, added plugins from the discovery store, and it all works better than it did when I was fumbling around on windows. I am glad OBS is adding Linux fixes much more regularly!

Now if only they had a co-op mode where one player drives and the other shoots like Lucky & Wild.

Quoting: MaelraneLooks fun, but Singleplayer only so not interested

Same.
They've been around for 10 years and we've never heard of them.
Maybe because they're the other, OTHER, Zoom.
I'm very interested; it is great to have another Linux-friendly platform!

....that will probably be the successor to GOG.

Quoting: blindcoderI have never heard of this platform before. Sounds like GOG, when it was still "Good Old Games".
I'll have a look, thanks!

I love Batocera! I took it off of my old steam machine to give chimera, bazzite, and nobara a try. They all offered more features and flexibility but NVIDIA drivers were a major hangup. I started to miss how streamlined Batocera was for everything retro-gaming outside of steam too. I was able to get steam up and running on Batocera before so maybe now most of the Team Green issues have been ironed out? i'm interested to try it again. The way Batocera handles wifi and multiple different game controllers is magical... no kde nonsense, wallet encryption bs, or glitchy driver dropouts. Select wifi, put in password, done. Select controller, map the essentials, done. Select 2nd, 3rd, 7th, and 8th controllers, map them, done. Dead simple. After that's done you'll spend hours customizing emulation station themes, settings, and options.... but don't we all??

I'm a huge fan of the jackbox team and was very excited to hear them giving it the full linux treatment. And then.... the worst self own. At least it's a lesson learned on both ends.
I did try it out with a variety of games and had little issue with it running on desktop with Nobara. JBPPs have gotten A LOT better on linux for me in the last year or so. Hopefully this leads to smoother releases in the future.

I've been running Bazzite on the OG Steam Machine (trying to bring everything full circle). It's old, slow, takes forever to update, but it totally works. X11 for nvidia is a blessing.
...now if only Steam Big Picture Mode would open in full screen and not leave the taskbar at the bottom of the screen it would be perfect. it had one job.

I am bad at the game as it is... so my viewership will only have themselves to blame.
