Mystery adventure Kona II: Brume gets a Linux demo ready for Steam Deck
13 Oct 2022 at 7:49 pm UTC

Quoting: F.Ultra
Quoting: morbiusI played the first game and it was so-so. Somewhat interesting premise, but an adventure at its heart. You had to go around looking for things and if you missed something, you couldn't progress until you find it.
Isn't that a "problem" with all games?!
No. Good games guide you towards what they want you to discover. In Kona, there is a magnet that you don't know that you need, hidden behind a house that you have no reason to go around back. That's just bad game design. That's how adventures from the early days of gaming used to work, no wonder that genre all but disappeared.

I knew this one is coming after itch.io did the same, but unfortunately, I've skipped both bundles because I already own everything from the bundles that I cared to play. There are other ways I can donate money for Ukrainian relief efforts, or I could simply pass some money to a refugee.

Merry Christmas you all! I've decided I'm going to be less cheap than usual this year and got myself three games today, Wasteland 3, Outer Wilds and Titanfall 2. As I see that this winter is looking like another lockdown, I've decided to get myself something to keep me entertained.

The Humble Big Brain Bundle has XCOM 2, 5D Chess, Battletech and more

XCOM 2 users complain that recently introduced launcher breaks the game. Although I'm a big fan of turn-based strategy games, I'm not sure how I feel about what's on offer in this bundle. Still, most of the games have Linux versions and the price is most certainly enticing.

NVIDIA announce new security issues, make sure you have updated drivers

Quoting: morbiusUpdated to 470.57.02, seems to be working. It was a solid excuse for me to migrate on a new stable driver branch.
Spoke too soon. Browsers started doing small freezes while scrolling content and their video playback also has small freezes and stutters. Rolling back the old 460 driver to check if 470 was indeed the cause.

I read this, check out the link, turns out Microsoft offers Xbox Game Pass Ultimate 3 month subscription for only $1. Ok, for that kind of money I'm willing to take a chance. So I subscribe and only then it lets me know that Xbox Cloud Gaming is not available in Greece. Oh Microsoft, what a peace of shit you are.
