My experience :

Pretty a good look for me, it's really a good evolution... but...
When i launch Fallout 4, there are several steamwebservices which take 100% of CPU, the game is hanging and not playable...

Very Beta state...

Steam Play arrived on Linux one year ago, some thoughts
21 August 2019 at 8:51 am UTC

Stadia could bring more Linux users, creators making games with Linux, maybe, just Windows games ;) A software like Blender is better in Linux than Windows (time of renders particularly). Maybe Stadia could bring some developments on Linux too...

But,
I'm extremely cautious about CDProjekt announcements on Stadia (at least, a memory of a certain Witcher3 on Linux...). I don't trust them with the support of Linux (care about Gog Galaxy ?). I think they do the minimum (who says advertising display ?). Their experience of Witcher 2 port was catastrophic.

However, SteamPlay is a big progression and promotion of Linux Gaming.

Promotion because of Youtube's, Twitch's users who makes videos to compare, tests, comments Linux ports, or gaming with Proton. It's a big progress !

Progression, because more games works, and, in fact, more simply to run (or with the same habits with the windows users).

Happy first birthday, hoping there will be a plenty or others in the futur !

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoC'mon, Valve!

Practically every days Tim Sweeney is kicking Gabe Newell in the balls, and the fat guy doesn't even react because He lies on the floor almost passed out!





If Steam want to survive this war, We (Linux gamers) need more than a new library design: GabeN must reduce the cut to the 10% or less for to attract big titles like EPIC is doing...

Steam already sells movies... :D

Some thoughts on Valve’s new Steam Play feature and what it means for Linux gaming

One day,

Wine ports will runs better on Linux instead of Windows 10-11-(what else fucking numbers) due to incompatibilities on Windows versions... like LibreOffice can open 1990's or early 2000's ms office docs better than MSOffice 2016...

The next Linux patch for Civilization VI will be out soon with cross-platform online play

Quoting: x_wingThe tickets talks about the steam bootstrap libs, which are fixed libs downloaded by steam. I think MayeulC referred to the requirement of installing 32 bit system wide packages, which is mandatory when installing steam from any repo.

"... need some basic 32-bit support from the host distribution ..." sounds different to me?

So they will deploy a 64 bit binary in a 32 bit package? AFAIK you can't set 32 bits dependencies in a 64 bit deb package.

Maybe some other composant of the game needs 32 bit support (like music, videos...)

A fresh DXVK release is out with fixes for NVIDIA, RADV and multiple game improvements

Quoting: LeopardIs there a simple guide for setting this up on Ubuntu based distros?

And also one question too ; is it confilicting or affecting existing Wine Staging setup or is it build upon it but have completely different prefixes , environment etc?
