immediately became one of my most anticipated games, looks incredible. it's a bit shocking that this sort of small scale coop isn't more common!

i'm also excited, haven't done any VR since getting the original oculus rift a lifetime ago, on a different continent. it's quite funny, i remember thinking that the rift controllers were near perfection, and it's clear that valve reached the same conclusion after messing with the wands and then the knuckles.

i am a redux hater (well, hate is a strong word). this is great news, and exactly the kind of thing that you'd honestly expect to be forgotten about in the preservation world. hugely pleased with this, well done gog.

it's a bummer, i enjoyed the last test and i'm actually quite looking forward to it, but i genuinely don't know if it's gonna be worth the rigamarole of booting into windows. seems vanishingly unlikely that it runs on linux though as you point out. 💔

Quoting: helloCLDOn the off chance I actually play through all of this, does anyone have any other recent Quake mods they recommend checking out?
if you've not done the machinegames campaign for the remaster, those are very good. not recent, but arcane dimensions is another classic.

i'm sure the actual quakeheads will have some deeper cuts, but hopefully that gets you started. :)

completely happy with arch.

wouldn't recommend it to anyone i wasn't gonna be able to support myself, but cachy seems in my experience to be a very solid way to get arch with sensible defaults. i do think the various optimised repos and kernel are not really very impactful, but it's very functional and well put together.

Quoting: ElectricPrismI want to see a proper Linux Client or a API upgrade for 3rd Party Game Library Organizers.

They really should team up with WINE and build "GOG Bottles" to aid in their game preservation program.
totally agree. i'm a game developer, have been on linux for most of a year now, have reformatted my boot partition in-place, transitioned my arch install from mkinitcpio to booster, and from systemd-boot to limine -- and i still can barely figure out wine without either steam or heroic doing the heavy lifting.

obviously with heroic it's easy to pull in gog games anyway, but a one click "official" solution from gog itself would go a long way.
