I'll probably grab it in a year or 2 once the dlc's come out and it goes on sale. I've got way too many other games to play currently.

Just wanted to point out that you can also use protontricks to update it. It's a bit more user friendly, and is useful for other things as well.

I've been playing Once Human pretty much non stop since it released. :) just hit 400 hours on Steam. Performance is pretty solid at 50-60 fps average, albeit with the lowest possible settings. It definitely has memory leak issues though. I typically have to restart the game every hour or so, but it's been such a good game that it's more than worth it. :)

Quoting: ElvanexSomething else new with this update, is the lock screen is now working in desktop mode. :)
Awesome! That was my big complaint, I'd hook it up, but couldn't unlock the deck unless I grabbed it directly.
I was referring to the lock screen of KDE, but in regards to the game mode lock screen, you can use a mouse to click the numbers as well.

I think Valve must be testing only games that work with the built in Deck controls. Some titles, such as Planetside 2, actually work perfectly fine despite being listed as unsupported. Just need to use mouse/keyboard.

Fixed issue in desktop mode that sometimes made it difficult to drag the Friends List
Funnily enough, I just experienced this for the first time the other day. Lol. Guess it had to have a last hurrah before it got patched out.
