Quoting: Liam DaweMe too. I feel like it could have been really popular if things had broken a bit differently--I dunno, better marketing, or timing that didn't put it out just as fashion was moving to anime style, or something.Quoting: Sil_el_motyeah. Planet Bob rules! A titan a.e.-reference?Maaaaaybe! :D loved that film

Quoting: Luke_NukemSome people aren't really categorizing some games very well though. For example Carmageddon: Max Damage had a few Platinum ratings because it, well, runs. But it runs slower than a snail superglued to a bus stuck in a traffic jam.Nice simile.

Quoting: thewhoFun fact: Most games which don't run on Steam Play don't work because of copy protection/DRM.Fun surmise: In the end, copy protection/DRM won't stop Proton any more effectively than it stops pirates. Here's hoping, at any rate.

This is even better than it looks. I mean, in that top 20 there are no "borked" games and five "needs more reports". So, of the games with a definite status, 11 out of 15 are either native, platinum or gold, 4 are not so good, 0 are borked.
Mind you, this is apparently an unusually good month. But with a bit of luck the trend will be upwards and we'll see other months like this, and if Valve nails those anti-cheat thingies to the wall . . .

Quoting: 14This looks pretty cool to me. I'm a little nervous for them because it looks a little slower-paced. I don't think this is gonna attract the nil attention span of the Fortnite generation. But that doesn't mean it won't be successful. I just think it'll be a bit niche -- like EVE Online for example.Yeah, a bit niche. But I think dino lovers is a pretty solid niche--not huge, but far from tiny, and probably quite loyal.

Quoting: no_information_hereLooks promising. However, the homage to Journey may be a little too close, with the desert, cape/scarf, and meditation points. I hope they don't get sued...Be kind of incongruous to watch two serene meditate-y groups in a lawsuit.

Quoting: grumpytoadDid anyone say that about their music streaming service before they ditched their entire CD collection ?I still mostly play music from my CD collection. I have minority eclectic picky tastes and streaming services just never really did what I wanted. And yes, feeling like it's actually my music that I know I can have whenever I want is a nice bonus.

Quoting: ShmerlSo, Cybperpunk 2077 is confirmed for Stadia. Now CDPR have no excuse not to release for Linux proper :)My understanding is, the excuse is they don't feel like it and some Linux fans were mean to them last time when they screwed it up.
