Quoting: scaineAbsolutely love the look of this, but was a bit gutted that there's no Grim Dawn style multiplayer. Looks like it's going for roguelite rather than GD's RPG progression, but still. Ravenswatch pulls this off brilliantly, but they've gone all-in on single-player here and while I'm still interested, it's very much less so.I guess I'm the opposite, where I actually prefer single player games more so than multiplayer games and No Rest for the Wicked seemed to be up my ally. However, the price is a bit much for me right now and will be waiting for a discount before I jump in to playing this game on the Steam Deck.

Quoting: melkemindThank you for posting the link :smile:Quoting: ToddLThis is it:Quoting: melkemindI'm the same way with not finishing Inquisition back then but where can I get this DAI proton version? I'm thinking of revisiting this game soon and would like to have controller support when playing on my Steam Deck.Quoting: TarosYay, no more special Proton build like for Inquisition.That's funny because I'm playing it right now (never finished it back when it came out), and I was surprised I had to use that special DAI proton just to get my controller working. I'm excited for this.

Quoting: missingnoRemember when Humble used to directly ports tons of great games to Linux themselves? How the mighty have fallen.I remember they used to give DRM free games, especially ones that had native Linux version available, when you bought their bundles in the early days and I miss seeing that today since everything is now Steam/GOG/<insert keyshop> keys.

This is why it sucks when big corporations acquire companies and end up letting lots of talented people go because of their agendas.

Quoting: PenglingI do love it when Fanatical does this stuff; For me, they've been an absolute godsend with their bundles and (on the one occasion I made an exception [External Link] :wink:) pre-order prices as well. Very good way of catching up on some PC classics for peanuts after I ditched the console scene. :smile:This is why Fanatical is my go to when I want to add more games to my Steam library through their bundles and you can't beat the prices on those bundles.

I played the demo on the Steam Deck during Summer Steam Fest and the controls were weird because they used the KB+M button layout and I had to make changes to get it to work with controller. Other than that, the game was fun to play and ran pretty good.

Quoting: numasanI love the Steam Deck and everything about it. Got one from the first batch and it's become my primary gaming device ever since. I wish I could play all my Switch games on it, also for the much better ergonomics.As long as your Switch games aren't from Nintendo or exclusive to the console, a majority of the releases that the Switch gets also show up on Steam with discounts. My approach is that if the Nintendo Direct shows any games of my interest, I check to see if they appears on Steam and if so, I'd rather go buy it from there once they become available so that I know I can play them on the Steam Deck or PC. This is one of many reasons that I don't support Nintendo anymore and I'm glad to be a Steam Deck owner.

From looking at the breakdown of Linux distros, the only thing I can't figure out is why did SteamOS lose 4.17% in popularity.
