Quoting: RoosterLiam: I had to download a music player to listen to music, since google was down
Me, literally listening to this podcast on Spotify: :huh:

True I could have used Spotify but the point was about relying on internet services ;)

Quoting: GuestSo is this a fork of the original dosbox code, or based on the 'staging' version that was recently advertised here?

According to the GitHub, they simply mention the original DOSBox.

Quoting: RoosterWould this apply to Red Dead Redemption 2? According to ProtonDB, that game is still a hit or miss, when it comes to running it through Proton.

Can't personally say as I don't own it. Only picked up the online standalone to test as it's currently real cheap.

Quoting: ziabicePlayed the first mission and it doesn't seem a good port, there are lots of graphic glitches, keyboard doesn't respond very well... it's definitely in beta quality

Be sure your system is up to date, and report issues because I've seen plenty of others on Linux not seeing those problems. Could be Mesa specific (going by your system details on here).

Quoting: M@GOidI was not so fond on the controls of their previous game, Absolute Drif. The cars lost control too easily, making it very frustrating to control on a gamepad.

I hope this one do better in this regard, like what you get in Sega Rally, for example.

It is made to play with a gamepad, but Sega Rally it's not. It's described as a "simcade" but it feels much further to the sim end of the spectrum.

Demo on itch [External Link] if you want to try it, don't think it's available on GOG/Steam?

I downloaded it from Itch and your description was spot on. It indeed have borderline simulator controls.

Unfortunately this is not my cup of tea. The simulator like controls and the camera angle made it a no-go for me. If I wanted a more simulator inclined game there is Dirt Rally (that I already own), with much better graphics and camera options. If this was a true arcade one with more camera options I would buy it.

Then might I suggest Bloody Rally Sim. Might be perhaps more for you.

Fair, have done a quick edit to make it hopefully better.

No it does not. What you're talking about is completely out of scope for the article and would be an entirely different article.

Quoting: BumadarHow come there is so much attention for stadia, i understand it runs on linux but its not really bringing (native) games to our beloved OS and i personally don't expect any of these aaa publisher to bring their now on stadia working games to linux. So from my point of view its another system like windows or ps4 or xbox.

As I personally answered a few times already: it's a service that works and is supported to play games on Linux. So we will cover most major and a few minor updates for it. In the same way we cover all Proton news, and news about GeForce NOW planning to support us too. Everything.
