QuoteNoway near the level on the likes of DOOM of course but perhaps you'll have some fun with it.

Doom is good, but IMO, the Marathon trilogy is a one-of-a-kind experience. Hell, out of all the boomer shooters that released in the last decade, I haven't seen a lot of them take after Marathon, which is a damn shame.

The fix for Fedora should theoretically also fix an issue I've been experiencing on Arch, though I still have to try it.

Still no support for AZERTY and other layouts where the number row has the numbers in the "shifted" layer...

If they had kept using Unity instead of switching to UE4, I'd be able to play that game and I wouldn't have refunded it on release day.

Honestly, I really hope there will be legislation forcing devs to not make single-player components always-online.

What Ubisoft did with The Crew or IOI with the Hitman reboot trilogy should be illegal.

QuoteSo you'll want to ensure any XZ packages are not at version 5.6.0 or 5.6.1, and check the news directly from your chosen distribution for updates on it.

Arch has repackaged 5.6.1, using a repo clone instead of the compromised tarballs: https://security.archlinux.org/ASA-202403-1

Quoting: 14

QuoteLarian also confirmed that no DLC expansion is coming for Baldur's Gate 3, it's a complete game and they will be moving onto their next game although Baldur's Gate 3 will still get patches to fix issues.

All I need from BG3 at this point is a photo mode, to be honest. There are too few opportunities to take good close up shots of a character without the UI getting in the way.

Hit F10 to remove UI?

I already know about that, but cutscenes/dialogues don't always have good camera angles, normal gameplay doesn't allow for good close-ups, and screens like chargen/level-up are locked to a basic pose and idle animations.

Now if only Konami could give the same kind of love to some of their other games...

For example, they literally abandoned GetsuFumaDen Undying Moon even though it clearly has missing content (the game has various placeholders for multiple weapon types, characters, and stages), disappeared from the official Discord server, released a physical Switch edition of the game a year after abandoning it, then went radio silent again after that.

Quoting: bisbyxThere's a whole other suite of things Steam provides (forums, guides, mod support, screenshot storage, cross-device save syncing) on top of "Im able to play games on linux AT ALL because of Valve". 30% might be a bit much for a store. But it isn't necessarily too much for a store + community platform combo.

And don't forget all of the hardware R&D and production, which is also funded by that cut.

Quoting: bisbyxEGS didn't even have a shopping cart for a year.

It's worse than that. It took Epic three years to implement it.

Quoteyou don't need to feel guilty about hopping from game to game.

Well, I'll keep feeling guilty especially when it prevents me from completing games I put on hold months/years ago.

*glances at games like Boneworks, Monster Hunter World, or WH40K Mechanicus, to name just three out of maybe hundreds*
