Quoting: vipor29considering this runs very well in proton.i mean if it runs better native then cool.

Yeah, too bad the game itself is kind of meh. Why did they have to cramp in all that open-world and crafting nonsense? Really feels like a me-too game now, while the older parts where just a solid (linear) single player experience.

Oh and that entire "girlfriend and her father" thing? Really cringe worthy :(

Anyone knows if this also fixes the multiplayer issues recently introduced by the 64bit port of Company of Heroes 2?

Too bad this is single-player only. A free/libre MMO like that would be cool.

And the back-paddle buttons are probably the most useless part of the Steam controller anyways...

Game play wise it doesn't quite reach Dead Cells, so I was a bit disappointed initially. But it grows a bit on you and looks like a pretty good game overall.

I wish they would now focus on making a 3rd party streaming client for Steam. Really sucks that the Steamlink app is closed source and only works on Android and RasberryPis.

Quoting: rcritSimilar to what Hori said, if I already have a Windows system capable of playing games why would I reboot using a USB stick to play them in Linux? Would this interest existing Linux users at all?

You are not the real target of this.

I think Liam has missed one piece of the puzzle, which is: This usb bootable Linux will allow you to use an existing Steam Windows installation as a Steam library folder. That way a user that has never tried Linux can just plug it in the PC and play around with it, including testing the games he/she has already installed to see if they work (with Proton).

Seeing is believing, and a lot of people shy away from installing a OS just to try it, and this would be a minimal effort way to test the game the person actually plays.

Maybe not official, but there are actually quite a few new and very powerful x86 gaming handhelds out now or coming soon. There is even an upcoming Switch alike from Lenovo/NEC for the Japanese market: https://www.cnx-software.com/2021/01/11/lenovo-lavie-mini-8-inch-mini-laptop-to-come-with-optional-desktop-and-gaming-docks/ [External Link]

With Intel being desperate for a good PR spin these days (to prop their stock-market value), I guess everything needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
That said... the littleBIG architecture, combining Atom cores with faster main cores might be a really good idea (copied from the ARM segment ofc).
