I already have the Valve Index but I wasn't really sure why until Alyx was revealed.

This is also for newer cards than the 9 series, like my 330M. Nice.

Quoting: MaathI suspect there is an age range demographic to which Life is Strange caters. I tried the free first chapter, but it did not resonate with my memory of high school.
IDK what your high school was like, but mine had nothing to make a game about, so that's maybe a good thing.

Google reveal Stadia will only have 12 games available at launch, more later in the year

For games that aren't out for Linux, there's zero reason for their makers/publishers to make them so unfortunately. They'll get minimal additional sales and the whole ballache (real of perceived) of support.

Blender needed more than 20 years to get where it's now, Godot still has a ways to go. ;-)

Still, open source has been doing the rounds recently, so who knows. I certainly wish them the best of luck.

Wouldn’t start until I ran Steam from the terminal. Weird.

I guess they’re trying to drum up interest for their next game? It seems to be working, at least in my case.
