If the opensource driver supports Wayland and SteamOS Game mode, I might be tempted to test it with my old GTX 1660 Super.
Nintendo goes after Switch emulator yuzu in new lawsuit

Worst thing is to think that, before this nonsense, I was willing to pay Nintendo if they ever decided to provide roms of their older consoles, so that I may legally run them on my emulators.
I personnally hacked my Wii console and installed USBLoader because the disk drive was starting to fail. I ripped and mounted all my legally bought games on an external drive, for preservation. It gave a second life to the console and it's even more enjoyable, now.
Oh well...
Edit: Even if I totally dislike Nintendo's behavior, the problem I see with Yuzu it's the fact that they emulate the current gen console... This is not about preservation, in this case. The Switch doesn't yet need preservation... When the Switch 2 is out, maybe then. Yuzu is too early for it's pretended purpose. Just saying. Don't hate me, please. :wink:

Oh! I like the new iso selection window. I had a hard time selecting the version I wanted, last time and ended up with the wrong one.
Trying it on my couch PC, at this moment.
Edit: I really like it. Just found a great alternative to Holoiso. On top of that, colors seem more vibrant on Bazzite.

Lies of P recently removed Denuvo and it's on sale - good time for soulslike fans

Thanks!

Quoting: theailerEasier than Jedi Fallen Order, at least that's my experience.Because even if I like Dark Souls world, exploration and storytelling, I can't "gitgud" enough for that kind of games. I finished Jedi Fallen order on lower difficulty, though.
Thanks!

This game always picked my curiosity, but being a Soulslike gets me cautious... Darksouls like or Jedi Fallen Order like, difficulty wise?

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualIn my case, it's because I own a Steam Deck. So, Steam is convenient and I think I'm getting too old and lazy, nothing more. :wink:Quoting: GuestI find it weird that people find it weird that a company supports our platform of choice. I wish more devs had an option to bypass the bullshit stores. Why is it so necessary to put the game on these stores?Because Proton, which is only usable by most people on Steam, provides a better experience in most cases than a native Linux version.
That's not necessarily my experience, although I recently had to install old libraries to get Loop Hero from GOG to work again, but a lot of Linux users do say as much. I also had to manually patch a library for another native Linux game from Itch. And delete some old bundled libraries for a Ren'Py game from Itch...
But I do support devs releasing their games wherever they want. It's just, supporting Linux natively long-term, even with open source engines, seems far more challenging than other platforms.

As I did with every other Epic exclusives, I'll wait for the Steam release and then decide.
This strategy saved me from buying bad games, a couple of times. :smile:

Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 adding EA AntiCheat, breaking it on Steam Deck / Linux

Quoting: PhlebiacYup! Because they are doing it, they assume everybody is doing the same. Kind of a way to normalize their behaviour?Quoting: PenglingSony/BMG then unironically went on to infringe on the copyrights of various GPL'ed projects [External Link] and then used pirated software within the company [External Link], with as much as 47% of what they were using at the time believed to have been pirated.Ever notice how those who fuss the loudest usually end up being guilty of what they are fussing about?

Forgot about that... I should have held back from buying Jedi Survivor.
Will it suffer the same fate?

Orange Pi Neo gaming handheld to come with Manjaro Linux

Quoting: gaboverstaIf I was a decision maker I would not ship manjaro. A distro that $equires enduse$s to read the release notes will not go down well with people jslust buying a handheld.You are right, but OrangePi, like RaspberryPi, are not targeting the masses. Those are thinkerers oriented companies. Manjaro is a good fit with this mindset, but is a handheld a good hardware platform for thinkerers? I'm not sure, but we will see...
But having trackpads is an excellent choice. This device looks like it solves th$ee of the reasons why I have not bought any steam deck competitors: No windows, yes Trackpads.
Should they now arrange for me suddenly not having a steam deck there will be questions.
