New Linux Gamer Survey For December

Quoting: BeamboomWould be nice if the survey were tied to your account, so your earlier submitted answers were filled in automatically.
Not possible to do with Google Forms. Although that did give me an interesting idea on making a simple form built by me to do this instead of relying on google.

Quoting: Stupendous Man
Quoting: TheBossSofaPC/ConsolePC is exactly as the name might suggest, a unit under your tv gaming from your sofa.
I asked this last month too, but never got an answer: what do you call a PC with several monitors: 1 or more on the desk, and a TV in front of the sofa?
That's what I use and I'd call it a desktop PC / sofa PC - please add that as an option too! ;-)
I use it roughly 50/50 from both positions, depending on the game I play.
If you're using it as a pc, but you have it connected to a TV as another monitor, it's not a sofa PC/Steam Machine. It's a PC with an additional monitor you happen to have somewhere else.

Quoting: ElectricPrismMaybe add Antergos to Arch-based.
I appreciate everyone wants to see their particular distro listed everywhere, but we want to keep the bracket lists short enough so people get which one to tick and nothing more :)

Quoting: BonsI am getting more and more the feeling that the porting of new games to Linux is getting slower and slower.
and more ports are getting canceled.

In this phase how its now going, i am little concerned that the Steam Machines ever will succeed.
Lets be Honest, the Steam Machine launch date, was not a success, and the Linux platform is still extremely lacking good tripe AAA games for the average consumer. For us Linux enthusiastic people the Linux gaming market is better than ever, but for the average consumer is really not mind blowing, little more underwhelming.
I'm a little concerned about some of the ports as well. I'm pretty sure we were supposed to have GRID Autosport and Payday 2 by now, and I've heard nothing about them for months.

Updated as recently as three days ago, so it looks like it's still coming. No need to worry i hope :)

Quoting: maodzedunOh, come on - that's just click bait. Stupid people might watch and think: "And that's why the Steam Controller sucks".
How the fuck is it clickbait exactly?
