Once again, Publishers are going against their customers. What is even the point of changing the DRM years later when the game has already been pirated and later updates won't matter much?
This move (Capcom changing/adding DRM for Enigma) feels shady like friends giving each other a favor. Capcom gives business to Enigma, and in return, Capcom gets a """good""" deal on a DRM.
I was going to get back into MH, but seems like Capcom doesn't want my money; oh well, I can give it to GOG and better publishers instead :whistle:

Quoting: LachuBad Windows. People are using Windows and get sad. On normal systems, secretary/accountant do not has sufficient rights, but on Windows (with unskilled, cheap admin?). Additionally, Windows is not resist to malware, there was many bad design decision during Windows creating, like opening programs downloaded from internet by double-click, etc.I don't like Windows, however it has nothing to do with that story. Social Engineering doesn't care about the OS.

Quoting: damarrin"Previously in Proton Hotfix: Fixed Baldur's Gate 3 not starting after a recent game update."If I remember correctly the bug was not present on the Steamdeck as it was related to the launcher that is skipped on it. So they probably tested it on the SD but not on a regular desktop, that would explain why it made it into the update
Now this worries me. It's been almost 2 years now and I don't see devs start caring about Steam Deck enough to even do a quick check to see whether an update breaks on it or not. A handful do, for sure, but generally they don't. They just ignore a bunch of their customers and leave it up to Valve to fix their mess.

One tip if you have multiple screens : You can use CTRL+ALT+SHIFT and F1 to F12 to change the display used, very nice when a window don't go on the main display :grin:

Have you been using Moonlight / Sunshine? What are your thoughts on it? Any good tips to share?I have been using both for some time (But not often as I don't have much time to play anyway), and it's quite nice being able to have access to my computer anywhere.

Only for the Steamdeck uh ? Really making the bare minimum, well no money from me then. (I know you can just make it looks like you are on the SD, but fuck that, it's just nasty from them to do it that way)

Quoting: BalkanSpyThey should rather focus on making a new Unreal Tournament.Or, you know, make the store actually worth using, because right now, it's not :sick:

Also this seems very dumb, because they loose money when the game is an exclusive title, and only start making money once the deal is over, when developers and publisher with common sense will put the game on another store, making the Epic Game Store not the first choice for most people... Having lot of games is not going to make people come to their store if the experience is still bad

Quoting: Liam DaweI know, because they were losing a lot of money. Yet they continue to use exclusivity deals (That cost them money) to get games on their store, so if they continue at the same rate, it will be back in the news at some point...Quoting: ThibugNext news, Epic laid off 50% of their staff because they are losing money ?They just recently got rid of over 800 people...

So instead of making the store better (Still no proper review system), they are using money to get developers onboard and hope that customers will follow... Next news, Epic laid off 50% of their staff because they are losing money ?
Halo: The Master Chief Collection multiplayer seems broken on Steam Deck

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualA short in the dark but, do you by any chance played Star Citizen at some point ? To make it work you have to add a line to your /etc/hosts to block an EAC server, doing so break any other games using EAC as it can't update, you might want to check that.Quoting: MayeulCI installed it from scratch, tried various Proton versions including GE, but EAC just doesn't work for me, I guess. I have similar issues with other EAC games like Back 4 Blood. The last time I tried was right after GOL announced MCC's EAC was finally working on GNU/Linux, but...Quoting: pleasereadthemanualI've never managed to get multiplayer to work on the desktop, despite many attempts.I had to completely uninstall it last week to finally make it work. Also, I think I had an old Proton version selected, prior to that.

I hope that developers will keep moving to Godot or other open source engines. F*CK Unity, I lost trust in them years ago and they just showed again that they can't be trusted
