[quote]For too long, the Linux gaming ecosystem has been fragmented. Individual distributions have spent countless hours duplicating efforts on kernel patches, input tooling, and essential packages.

i love this game, i just dont like some... creative decisions made on the trailer, like the boring menu before the game, hopefully it boot you into the regular menu...
and the arrange of the game music with real/realistic instruments.

Quoting: Doktor-MandrakeIt's amazing how fast these guys are getting these recomps out

What I particularly like is how they let the user upscale but then downsample back to native res. Far better then just bumping up the internal res!

it goes a lot quicker when you got the instruction set decoded and some open source tools that help reverse enginering stuff =p, but still it must be a lot of work

Quoting: scaineThis kind of innovation is what got me into Linux in a big way in the late-2000's. I'd been pottering about with it since 2005, but when Compiz landed properly - maybe around 2007/2008, with Beryl and Emerald themes, suddenly Linux was just... cool! Wobbly windows, spinning cubes, fires consuming windows, genie effects when minimising. It was awesome.

I'm convinced that Compiz was why Microsoft launched that abomination, Vista, with it's exceedingly Emerald-like "glass theme" and a very familiar looking alt-tab animation!

Anyway, this project gives me the vibe. Obviously, it'll be less impactful, needing a VR headset to work, but it's still just incredibly sci-fi. I love it.

(p.s. I still use wobbly windows today, although the fire effect has been replaced by the "old tv turning off" effect, and I don't need a cube anymore, cos 4K screen mean I only need two surfaces. but it's still cool!)

compiz was the thing that made me feel in love with linux too despite the fact i dont use it anymore.

as for the emerald-like glass theme, well, they had an small advantage, changing the color with an HSL slider was prety easier not to mention the glass was a bit more conmvincing because it defracted light instead of picking what was imediatly behind it.

Compiz was one of the things that made me love linux, now with VR and AR, we finally can make this concept useful instead of just an cool gimick!

looks like their plan to bundle the game with an geforcenow/xcloud deal was frustrated...

or maybe just an sily mistake.

in any case this game is quite ugly and i cant see why it would be that demanding

Quoting: dindonPeople from Cygames' community that complain about the idea of them using AI are such hypocrite. Cygames is a gacha-making company that exploits gambling addicts for profit.

there are some people who see both things are wrong, just one of then or neither, i dont see the issue here.

afaik , japan has an culture of gacha since the days before gaming was a thing (see gachapon), and they also value artists a lot, with their huge culture for anime, manga and stuff like that so i can see why they would reject ai when(if) they know about the plagiarism involved, but im not sure its the same community that despise it.

New GOG owner Michał Kiciński also mentioned in regards to Windows how "It's such poor-quality software and product, and I'm so surprised that it's [spent] so many years on the market. I can't believe it!".

that is HUGE!
