Quoting: BeamboomBut with "standalone" do they mean simply wireless, or an actual internal computer that makes the set not require external computing power? If so that surely must make the set more expensive, not less?

I guess they want to compete with the Oculus Quest, so an actual self-contained VR headset. They would have to hit the 450-550 $/€ price point to be competitive though.

Quoting: slaapliedjeIs Doom Eternal good? Last Doom I played was the one from 2016 and I still haven't beaten it.

I liked it. More difficult than Doom 2016, stingy with the ammo, you really have to use every gameplay element to beat it even on lower difficulty.

You should at least be able to try out the Windows versions of DOOM Eternal, No Man's Sky and Wolfenstein: Youngblood

FYI the DLSS/RTX upgrade for DOOM Eternal is not up yet, it's announced for June 29th.

Quoting: legluondunetI enjoyed playing the first opus.
Is this second opus as good as first one?

Are you serious? Portal 2 is considered one of the best video games ever.

I'm really tempted... I got the XPS 13 Developer Edition in 2013 and it was really great but it's starting to show its age. I wish it wasn't so damn expensive :cry:

The way I do it (xubuntu):

- Download the driver
- chmod +x on the package
- log into to tty1, run > sudo service lightdm stop
- launch the package, follow the instructions
- sudo service lightdm start

there you go, there's a chance you might have to do it again next time you update you kernel.

I'm getting 120+ FPS @ 1440p Ultra Nightmare settings now :) (RTX 2080)

Quoting: lejimsterI'm a bit confused. Is Doom Eternal working or not on Protom yet? Unless denuvo is supported in proton I'm guessing we will have to wait like we did with Doom?

A lot of Denuvo games work with Proton, they even corrected Denuvo-related bugs recently for Arkham Knight and Just Cause 3

Quoting: subHas somebody already coined a term like greenwashing - just FOSS-related?

Fosswashing?
Openwashing?
Librewashing?
Gnuwashing?
Tuxwashing?

Take your pick! ^^

Quoting: tmtvldoes that mean that there is a Linux version of Xenoverse 2? They should put that on Steam.

I suppose there's nothing preventing Google or the game's devs from using Wine/Proton + DXVK to run Windows games on Stadia. Xenoverse 2 is rated Gold/Platinum on ProtonDB.

Quoting: Avehicle7887it doesn't mean devs are willing to release it for a normal Linux desktop (support costs, the usual distro difference excuse etc).

Let's hope the Steam Linux Runtime will get rid of that issue...

Wasn't Borderlands 3 supposed to be a 6 month Epic exclusive?!
