Confessing my continued love of the Steam Controller, a few years after release
8 Jun 2019 at 12:07 pm UTC

I am completely convinced by this gamepad, nice to use, more programmable buttons than a xbox360, a bank of profiles online, great autonomy ... I even buy a second for my guests. I just hope Steam will continue to offer this product to sell.

The streaming games will soon replace all known games format we know: CD, DVD, digital, consoles...
For the dev/publisher it's an evolution: less support, the game just work for everyone the same way, less development: you develop your game for one platform, the server it is installed on, that's all.
For the gamers it's an evolution too: click and play, the console mind, you don't need to tweak during several hours...no update to install...just play instantly, whatever the platform.

A new and quite interesting Steam Client Beta is out, nice Linux fixes and Vulkan shader downloading

they added support for "developers and Valve testing specifying default Proton configuration options for games even if they're not yet white-listed".

They gave developers tools for their games have better Steamplay support, very nice, I hope this will sensitize developers who do not plan to develop their game for Linux to make it more Linux-friendly.

Steam In-Home Streaming is experimentally available outside the home, and is now known as Steam Remote Play.

So If I correctly understood, we don't need Steam Link for remote gaming?
Is this new feature a next step towards a full network gaming solution as Google Strada or Playstation now?

We will now download official Steam Input configurations during game installation for Steam Input users. This should fix the issue where Steam Input games would need to be run once before controllers worked in offline mode

I'm using more and more my Steam Controller instead of my x360: more comfortable, more keys to program, config bank available online for games...I'm thinking to buy a second one when my friend play with me.

Very nice work but my hardware config is not enough strong to play a PS3 game in optimal conditions.

Psyonix, creator of Rocket League is joining Epic Games (updated)

Everyone has his virtual games shop now, Valve was the first to launch the concept and now we have: Epic, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Origins...The war started. I'm not sure Steamplay will be a sufficient answer towards this aggressive concurrents. Valve should return to games development, if only they could develop and publish exclusive games. Imagine Half Life 3 exclusive to Steam platform...And like Sony they need to negociate exclusive AAA games for Steam shop.
Why I have Uplay installed on Linux? Because the game I bought (Far Cry 3 on Steam) needs Uplay to launch. Why I have Battle.Net installed on my Linux install? Because Warcraft III and WOW are not available on Steam.

Steam Play just got two updates with 4.2-3 and 3.16-9, some great stuff included

Strange, L.A.Noire works for Wine 3.14-->4.5, but not with Proton, even with Proton last version 4.2-3.

Steam Play was updated again with Proton 4.2-2
6 Apr 2019 at 10:01 am UTC

Quoting: LaudracThe major problem is still not fixed, just tested today by switching in SteamOS to desktop Modus then the issue does not exist mouse working perfect in the specific proton games. Back to bigpicture mode and the problem is back. I also tried to deactivate steam overlay, but the problem is still there so steam need to fix the bigpicture mode of SteamOS

I'm not sure we are talking about the same issue, I'm talking about this one:

Steam Play was updated again with Proton 4.2-2
5 Apr 2019 at 5:24 pm UTC

Quoting: LaudracDid someone get the major mouse problem solved of SteamOS and proton? Mouse disappears and is only visible when clicking any button even the weel works?

Do you mean in overlay mode? There was an issue with Proton in overlay mode, the cursor was invisble, but it is recently fixed.
