Steam gets a new Steam Deck-like Performance Monitor now in Beta replacing the FPS counter
18 Jun 2025 at 11:09 am UTC Likes: 1

Ahh is this why the FPS counter quadrupled in size the past few days?

They thankfully fixed that too, and made it closer to the old style.

I wonder if those specs are with pixel and frame hallucination algorithms enabled or disabled.

Yeah, I discovered it a few days ago, and it's definitely one to keep an eye on.

Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store

That move reeks of desperation.

Problem is, the EGS will bleed even more money because of it, because 99.99...% of its users only care about Fortnite and the weekly free games, so no games will hit the threshold.

I tried the demo during the last Next Fest (it's still up, too, which is good). Good stuff.

DXVK 2.6 brings expanded Nvidia Reflex support and lots of game fixes for Linux / Steam Deck

> `std::regex`

C++'s standard regex support is universally considered to be *bad*, so I don't understand why it's still used in this day and age.

Amazon GameLift Streams allows devs to run their own streaming platform - supports Linux and Proton runtimes
12 Mar 2025 at 7:51 pm UTC

i wonder how much data manipulation they needed to reach this number.

Probably not much. IIRC, Epic's infrastructure, including Epic Online Services which third-party devs can use, is hosted on AWS, so that's already a big number of players right there.

Proton Experimental adds initial speech synthesis support, lots of game fixes for Steam Deck / Linux and easier modding

Quoting: poke86Hopefully it fixes voice recognition in Phasmophobia!

No, this is only for speech synthesis. Voice recognition is still not supported in my experience.

Photo mode is definitely what I'm the most excited about.

Steam Controller 2 is apparently a thing and being 'tooled for a mass production' plus a new VR controller
20 Nov 2024 at 11:47 am UTC Likes: 6

Honestly, if Valve does make a Steam Controller 2 or similar, I hope they'll bring back the dual-stage triggers from the original. I really loved those, as I used the click at the end to enable gyro aiming.

Meanwhile, the Steam Deck's triggers don't have that, and it saddens me.
