I think I'm a bit too much of a weirdo for this game. This kind of "put yourself in someone's life where nothing much is happening" doesn't resonate much with me because all my tastes and interests are going to be quite different; the characters are going to be busy caring about stuff I always find a waste of time and not caring about stuff I feel is important, liking music I think is between bland and annoying, and so on.

What have you been playing recently that you think is worth mentioning? Do you have any issues with the Steam Deck Verified rating on something? Let me know in the comments.
I recently played Borderlands 2 on Steam Deck and it crashed constantly with every Proton version I tried, it's supposed to be verified.
Shouldn't Borderlands 2 be running natively?
It does, with even more crashes.
Maybe it just crashes a lot, on whatever OS.

Ugh. There's a lot of that kind of thing . . . everything's a lot more monopolistic out there than we realize because we see all these different names and don't realize they're all owned by the same assholes.

Warhammer 40,000: Gladius free to keep, plus new announcements from Skulls Showcase

I'm pretty lucky the last few days; turn based 4X type games are my thing, and first there's Endless Legend for free (which I'm quite enjoying) and now the Warhammer Gladius thing which is probably fun and I will definitely try. Neither of which I would have heard of without GamingonLinux, so thanks very much.
