Seems like there's no hope for BattlEye support within Steam Play

If EAC successfully includes wine support, opinions may change. Or not. We'll see.
The most important thing is there are alternatives available for anyone and EAC integration alone would bring us very close to that goal :)

Details on how Slay the Spire sold on Linux plus some thoughts
5 Feb 2019 at 10:22 am UTC Likes: 1

I always assumed humble and other key resellers sales heavily distort our sale figures on Steam. I buy almost all games on humble. I feel quite attached to them from the old days, where humble really improved my linux experience tremendously, because they were the first bigger player that cared about it. Plus they are often the cheapest non-dubious option and monthlys can be a really nice gamble.
I bet there are a lot others like me in the linux gaming community.
Now that I think of it, I should probably start to be more attached to Valve instead of Humble, as humble really doesn't care about Linux as much any more, while Valve are the main force behind a lot of improvements.

Regarding Slay the Spire - I couldn't really find this game appealing to me. Maybe it's well polished and fun, but the idea itself did never interest me enough. Maybe the word rouge-like is holding me back.

I'm also wondering if this feature will make it into the kodi addon, though it's probably ok if not.

I remember with my first tries with Lutris, it took me quite some time to finally install the first game with it. This weird "install from browser" setup and missing dependencies on wine were the culprit, as they were not obvious to me in the slightest.
Nice that both issues are fixed now.

TANGLEWOOD, the seriously retro puzzle-platformer is now on GOG

Is the rom included in the download, so I could put it on my retriopi?

EDIT: Just saw it is included as an extra

Paladins, the team-based shooter seems to work well with Steam Play

Quoting: Sojiro84Does anyone know what has changed since last week? A week ago I could not play online. Got kicked instantly and now, after I installed the dotnet4, I can go online.

I assumed it was because of that but that isn't the case? The game recently got a update and the EAC is a different version that now works?
That's what's assumed. It's worth keeping an eye open for other games that come with an updated EAC.

Maybe it's a sign of EAC actually supporting SteamPlay from now on. That would be a step I'd never expected from Epic, though :O
