That's a good point, I've added "Guide: " to the beginning of articles on the main RSS feed to make it clearer going forward :)

Looking it up properly, GTFO appears to be really nothing like Tarkov. Needing to extract doesn't necessarily mean it's an extraction shooter - they're a lot more of a specific genre.

GTFO would be more like Helldivers 2 or Deep Rock Galactic, they're just co-op shooters.

I've today given the feedback to Fanatical, suggesting they add the game name below each thumbnail on bundle pages. I agree it would make it better.

If Proton is already so much better, why does Steam not reflect that in its auto-selection of compatibility tools?
For Steam Deck, it already does in a way, with Deck Verified picking what version runs best between Native and Proton. Over time I would expect Valve to allow developers to specifically tag they support Proton, but I guess they're just not there yet. Perhaps when we get a new Steam Machine console we may see a bigger push?
