It really sucks that it isn't available for non RasberryPI ARM sbcs :(

So what internal resolution is this running then? I assume it up-scales to 720p?

Thoughts on the official Steam Deck Docking Station

Really a missed opportunity for Valve to not include a stand-alone Steam Link in the docking station. Price-wise it would have probably not made a big difference either.

A genre is born: Horde games

Quoting: furaxhornyxOf all these games, I think that Grim Horde is, for now, the only one with a native version, but is in early state...
I know Vampire Survivors is supposed to have a native Linux version "some day", I will be waiting then :wink:
It has a native version already if you switch to the beta branch in Steam.

I think this genre as a lot in common with bullet hell shooters as it is not so important where and how you shoot, but rather where you move the character.

Tempest Rising looks like the RTS I've been waiting for

I really hope they take a lesson from Iron Harvest and do not make the mistake of not releasing a map editor. Without custom maps RTS multiplayer is severly limited and locking new maps behind DLCs is just a greedy cash grab ☹️

Free and open source multiplayer voxel RPG 'Veloren' version 0.13 is out

Quoting: PublicNuisanceI am not usually an MMO fan but I have enjoyed what I have played of Veloren.
I think that is because commercial MMOs are especially bad with grinding and other player hostile stuff that is only good for the bottom line of the publisher and nothing else.

Quoting: TcheyI’m following and sometimes testing Veloren since 2018 i think, and i believe it will be greatly fun !

Later ?

Currently, it’s a bit too clunky and empty : lots of nice places to explore, but nothing much to really "do".

Still, happy to jump in, from time to time.
Its more fun with friends.

GPD talk about 'cooperating' with Valve for SteamOS on their devices

I think the controversy is mostly a language and culture barrier. They make nice hardware and are probably the ones most likely to make a decent SteamDeck competitor.
