Rise of the Tomb Raider is now officially available on Linux, here’s a look at it with benchmarks

Quoting: Mutant22Hello everybody.
I just registered today to share my experience with the game. For some reason the game is running better on linux than windows version (windows 7 DX11) :D . It is a relatively recent windows install (installed about a month ago) so it shouldn't be bloated much. I am playing at PC in my profile, dual booting with windows to test it. I have recent NVIDIA binary driver 396.18 and i tried to disable new spir-v compiler (if it does something, i don't know). And I set CPU governor to performance mode, too.
It looks as though it doesn't support Windows save data. Is that correct?

Make no mistake, these games that are coming out as "remastered" are carrying that label because of they're being released for Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, which are advertised as 4K consoles. It's probably not worth it to buy it again on PC since you could already set it to whatever resolution you wanted anyway.
Gleaner Heights, a farming sim like Stardew Valley that's a little on the darker side is now on Linux

Quoting: razing32Hmm , steam lists it as Mostly Positive.
Any chance the dev would send in a key ?
Seems getting to the promised "dark" content is a bit of a slog.
Curios to see a playthrough before i consider a purchase.
Interesting. I'm not sure I'd want to grind for hours just to see some darkness. I could just go play Streets of Rogue and get it instantly...or even just play real life. :'( Somebody hold me.
MMO 'Project: Gorgon' released in Early Access with day-1 Linux support

Quoting: TcheyIt is Unity, and the game is ugly not because of technical limitation, but because of complete lack of artistic taste. Even the colours are ugly. It will never change, until they get a proper designer, and some money to pull the assets. Sadly, i don't believe it will ever change. Happily, the game is great anyway.
Right. I think this was deliberate. They chose to make the game look like that, perhaps for whatever nostalgia they were trying tap into with the hardcore MMO crowd. I don't even like MMOs, but I'm glad there's something on Linux for everyone.

No...no, you still wouldn't. :D

I always get excited when I see "RPG" in the headline and then cringe when I see "rogue-like" in the article. :dizzy:
Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun beta patch dramatically improves performance and load times

I really love this game, and some performance dips were really my only concerns about it. I hope they release some expansions. Mod support and level editors would be great too. :D

Are Itch.io alphas like Steam and GOG Early Access where you pay once and get access to all future builds?
