This looks pretty cool and reminds me of the times at the arcade playing those awesome beat'em ups like The Punisher and Captain America and the Avengers.

Mixing retro Resident Evil vibes with a mystery dungeon, House of Necrosis arrives in October

If this were reminiscent of a Nintendo property rather than Capcom they'd be sued already. Not saying Capcom isn't going to do anything, but at least it isn't a complete certainty.

From watching the video, I don't see Capcom really doing anything to the developer that made this game because it's not like they made a one to one copy of Resident Evil 1. Also, the game mechanics isn't the same at all because this is turned based and not in third person mode.

The closest game that Capcom could do something about is The Mute House but again, it's not an exact copy of Resident Evil and the developer hasn't been sued by the company.

DRAGON QUEST VII Reimagined announced for February 2026, already rated Steam Deck Playable
13 Sep 2025 at 1:41 pm UTC

I still remember to this day that Dragon Quest VII was the first game to be released outside of a Nintendo console and own a copy of the game, which is part of my collection. Despite not having the time to play the game back then, it was something I wanted to get back into and now, this announcement just reminded me about revisiting it again.

I'm interested in purchasing this game down the line since the game play looks cool and I like horror games, which checks out here.

7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux

Happy 7 years to Proton!

I remember trying out Proton early on with a laptop and was kind of impressed with the games I was playing but it was far from perfect since it either crashed or showed a black screen. Eventually, those same games now work perfectly on the later version of it.

Got to hand it to Valve, CodeWeavers and everyone else involved in getting Proton working as well as it does today and the amount of effort continues to pay off. Now, let's see if Proton can finally get to a point where it can handle those kernel anti-cheats and video codecs that don't play nice on it.

Steam Survey for July 2025 shows Linux approaching 3%
2 Aug 2025 at 5:37 pm UTC

Always great to see progress towards 3% for Linux as more and more people are starting to ditch Windows. It would be nice to have a CachyOS avatar since I've been using it more and more on my systems.

Here's the most played games on Steam Deck for July 2025

It's not surprising that the usual suspects are listed in the most played games on Steam Deck, with some new titles that'll come and go.

Battlefield 6 will be a unplayable on Linux systems due to the anti-cheat
1 Aug 2025 at 5:23 pm UTC

This shouldn't be too surprising given that they added their kernel anti-cheat to Battlefield 4 and 5 last year and this is just a continuation of that for Battlefield 6. If this game is on Geforce Now, assuming that they do it like the other Battlefield titles, that's one option for those that want to play the game.

Good thing I got most of my gaming done on the Steam Deck for both Battlefield 4 and 5 before they implemented the kernel anti-cheat. As of now, I'm not going to give EA money for this one since this series doesn't hold my interest.

Hellraiser game announced with Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival
22 Jul 2025 at 7:34 pm UTC

We need a Phantasm game.
@thewho
If only they done this a long time ago while the Tall Man was still alive because he could've been the voice for the game. I guess they'll have to use AI to generate his voice unless they can find someone to play his role.

felix86 emulator for Linux for x86 and x86-64 apps on RISC-V can now run Steam and major games

This is great to hear about an emulator that can run x86 and x86_64 apps on RISC-V. Now, if only we can get more RISC-V hardware available to everyone to use.
