Quoting: MohandevirAnti-cheat should be supported on the Steam Deck, but on the other hand, most of these games are unfit for the handheld form factor and as proof of that, it doesn't seem to impact the Steam Deck sales. It is sad for Linux desktops, though.

Anti-cheat is supported on the Steam Deck but many game companies want to use their tools that are kernel based, which doesn't work on Linux. Steam Deck support EAC and BattlEye anti-cheat software but not every game company uses it though.

Quoting: DrakkerAnimal Well is absolutely fantastic, its a lot of fun. Provided you like puzzles and are a completionist at heart... If so, grab it, it's worth it.

I was thinking about picking it up but will wait for better sales on the game.

I only heard about this game from some Reddit page and from watching the video, it looks pretty awesome to play. For now, I'll wishlist as a reminder to get this game when it goes on sale.

After reading this article, it's enough to tell me to tell MS to shove it with their AI crap and I'm glad I stopped using their OS for over a decade and a half. I really wished the Year of the Linux was a reality back in the 2000s and beyond, but yet here we are still stuck with Windows and it's their invasive AI crap :sad:

Quoting: GuestThis is not based on the usual D&D ruleset, but on Warhammer (modified) ruleset, which is refreshing (and a lot simpler than the previous games imo.) It is also turn based, which is a nice change (I hated the RTWP system).

I also prefer turn-based; seeing it with that turn-based look was one of the things that made me think it was interesting.
I played a campaign of the Warhammer (not 40k) roleplaying game once. It had some interesting concepts but was a bit bare-bones, at least at the time. But that was many many years ago so any present day Warhammer RPG is probably completely different.

Good thing that both Pathfinder games and Rogue Trader are available on GOG if you want to go the DRM-free route and decide to give it a try.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyHuh. Never heard of it. Looks interesting.

It's from the same company that made the Pathfinder series and it's based off of one of the D&D rule set of books. The Pathfinder series of games are usually on sale often if you're ever interested.

Thanks for the heads up, Liam! I'm on the fence of buying the game because of the cost and since I already own the Pathfinder series, I'm going to wait it out for awhile before I grab it at a price I'm willing to purchase it.

Blow has GamingOnLinux blocked on X, so I missed it until it was pointed out.

Any particular reason..?

We disagreed many many years ago on something around Linux users "not buying games", and he blocked me as a result of it.

Man, Jonathan Blows :wink:

Good thing I was digging around my old Humble Bundle purchases before IGN got to them and to my surprise, I forgot to register my Steam key for the old version of the game. Now, I finally own it before it got delisted.

This trailer looks good and FromSoftware continues to be the kings of the Souls genre. I can already tell this DLC is going to be a winner and success on many levels for them.

I'm glad sites like GamingOnLinux exist because IGN is one of the worse when it comes to reporting gaming news but the crazy thing is that they also own Humble Bundle, which is hit or miss and many still miss the days prior to their acquisition.
