Embracer Group splitting into three companies

Quoting: CatKillerEmbracer was particularly relying on a $2 billion deal that fell through. They've been restructuring to try to cover that.

If I remember correctly then the rumour-mill said that this was a planned investment by the Saudi government, so that was probably a good thing that it fell through.

Orange Pi Neo Linux gaming handheld starts at $499 with Ryzen 7840U, Ryzen 8840U at $599

I don't get what the point of the Ryzen 8840U version is. Seems to be the same specs as the 7840U just with a faster NPU, which is AFAIK completely useless in a handheld like this.

CoreCtrl adds AMD RX 7000 series fan curve controls, Intel CPU temperature sensors

That should help to figure out why my system sometimes turns off on high load ever since I added a 7600 GPU. Although I suspect it is a shitty PSU that is causing that and not actual over-heating.

Wayland and Steam in general seems to be a mess right now. SteamVR used to work on KDE with wayland, but ever since the SteamVR 2.x update I can't get it to work anymore :(

Will be hard to choose between this and the upcoming Homeworld 3.

Steam shop alternative for Indie games? Would explain why there are sooo many of them involved.

Lots of exciting updates coming to the free & open source RPG Veloren

Time for a new release I guess, even though with Airshipper updating to weekly builds it doesn't really matter that much for existing players.

Metro Exodus hits 10 million sales - and there's more to come

QuoteI still haven't actually gone through and finished Metro Exodus yet. Really enjoyed the gameplay and story in the first two though, so I really should do Exodus at some point.

It's a significant departure especially in gameplay from the first two, and IMHO much worse because Exodus is mostly an open-world game with loads of half-assed fetch quests that do not further the story in any way.

I really hope the upcoming VR title will go back to the roots of the first two, and given how badly suited VR is for open-world games I have some hopes that it will not totally suck.

Odd screen resolution choice. Probably not the best for overall performance.

But still... depending on the price this might be an interesting Steam Deck competitor.
