I don't know if this this is something new that came up as of late. But it now has a message that says you need Decky Loader. You don't need it though it works just fine with out it. Just missing some stuff like the back buttons and gyro. But yeah me and my friend are make good use of this guide :grin:

I really hope this still works with Steam Deck. Elden Ring really was the launch title for the console, it would be a shame if we lost it due to cheating.

Tango Gameworks (Hi-Fi RUSH) lives again with KRAFTON

Quoting: ToddLGreat to see Tango Gameworks being acquired by KRAFTON and hopefully, we can see a future The Evil Within 3 game from them if MS decides to let them do it. Now, will Shinkji Mikami ever come back to Tango Gameworks after leaving them last year?
I'm positive they will have to start all over from scratch. MS still owns the IPs. I think a fresh start is a good thing anyways.

Closed source? No thanks.
Also I think they will brake it, Roblox seems to really hate Linux.

Quoting: ShmerlIs GOG version coming? Looks like a perfect game for it.
It appears GOG is totally ignoring them? They have submitted multiple times with no response. This and many other threads are full of similar stories about GOG's mismanagement. Really sad. But of course this is the outfit that has a client that officially supports Mac but not Linux. Just total incompetence over there.

They say they'll try to release the 1.0 on gog, but at this point I can't support them so Steam it is for me.

Yeah GOG has made so many bone headed moves over the years that's hard for me to support them. The big one that always comes to mind is when they tried to sell Hitman. Like uhh guys, the game that requires a constant internet connection is DEFIANTLY not DRM free.

While I think the writing and lore is incredible. I don't think the gameplay hasn't aged quite as well. Still it free so go ahead and give it a try.

VR game streaming tool ALVR adds PipeWire support on Linux

Quoting: ticktokNow if only any of my games ran half decently on linux. Only reason I still have a windows partition is for VR. Even with all the right parts, an AMD graphics card and an HTC vive, the experience is glitchy and inconsistent everytime.
It's still a big hurdle for Linux gaming. A big problem is that VR seems rather dormant now. I feel like after Alex people stopped caring about VR (I me that's kinda how I felt)

Selaco is now in Early Access - one of the best shooters I've played in forever

I usually try not to buy early access games. But this one is right up my ally. not only is the the Linux support excellent. They put in setting just for the Steam Deck. Even my little mini living room pc runs it like a champ!
