Quoting: Geppeto35Just buy it on Steam?Quoting: Serious_TableI am beyond stoked that they're doing another Minecraft Dungeons. The first one was honestly a sleeper hit for me and became my favorite ARPG, right up there with Diablo 3. The "easy to learn, difficult to master" aspect of their loot and gearing made it so easy to fall into, and a lot of Minecraft mobs were suddenly a lot more terrifying in the context, especially Endermen.How does it work on linux? My kids ask for and I see a lutris entry. Do we have to do tricks, cause it don't work with the Java edition?
Fingers crossed the second has that same sauce!

Quoting: scaineThis sounds absolutely incredible. If they've genuinely created intra-distro consistency, that's a HUGE win for Linux as a gaming platform. Now, Valve, what are you going to do about that shitty kernel-level-anticheat problem?Thinking on this somewhat. Perhaps this could be a way towards it. Have everyone run Steam inside a container, Valve can verify nothing in the container has changed. Perhaps this could help towards ensuring a secure environment?

Personally, I've removed Lutris and won't be using it myself or suggesting it in future.

Quoting: TriciaPearsonLikely something aimed at us for reporting on it. But it goes to show how confusing he's made the situation by hiding it, and his later comments about hiding it. The whole situation is a stupid mess of his own creation.Quoting: dragonherder He did not initially hide it though. He hid it after basically being bullied gor using AI to finish work he hasn't had the motivation to do on his own codebase... he then got bullied for removing the attribution because now he was trying to hide it. As another pointed out and I responded to it is basically coming down to people bullying developers using AI no matter whatThat's also partially untrue. At the very first he didn't hide it, BUT he did hid it BEFORE being bothered. See his own statement :
" No, I removed the Claude attribution way before anyone complained. Looking at the git history, it seems to have happened on Feb 18th. The only thing I did as a result of this thread was putting them back. As a bonus, it fucks over every news source saying I've hidden Claude usage, making their articles wrong and outdated. "
Personally, I've removed Lutris and won't be using it myself or suggesting it in future.
