Quoting: ElectricPrismSo if you are one of those people this is for you:I always found it the other way around, gnome users talking about how fantastic their featureless (most extensions don't work) desktop is and how KDE is bloatware, meanwhile I moved from GNOME to PLASMA5 the other day and noticed things just work allot better and faster (even games work faster somehow).
Haha!

Hopefully AMD's open-source vulkan drivers can pull ahead and make some real impressive wins against NVIDIA's closed drivers in the future, that would really put the pressure on, we have seen what open-source opengl drivers have done for AMD, quite impressive.

ProtonDB is really only a guide, for the most part I might go there to read comments on howto get a specific game running and ignore any ratings I see since they tell me nothing.

You could have 3 Ratings,
1) Game works how well from scale 1 to 10 (10 being as good as or better then windows)
2) Workarounds needed (section provides fields for people to define steps taken)
3) Borked, doesn't work.
That seems good enough to me.

I recently submitted Empyrion as borked on Proton 4.11, however it works fine (minus EAC) on proton 4.2.
Also I'd like to say Risen3 works quite well with PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 %command%, even reshade functions! (bit of cache skipping going on tho)

System76 are prepping a powerful new Linux laptop, the "Adder WS"

Quoting: GuestI will never understand the reason for Gaming Laptops. Either go for a Console or PC. But yeah i guess nice for those who are willing to buy it or so.Some people live a very compact life I guess, no house/home, no possessions, no TV, always on a bus or in a library/study somewhere. Guessing that is the type of person this is aimed at.
Pegasus Frontend, another open source game launcher has Linux support

I prefer launchers that have easy ability to download and plugin WINE versions etc like how lutris does it. Not everything plays nice with default proton configurations provided by steamplay.
The Linux-powered Atari VCS sounds like it's coming along

Hmmm, I thought they upgraded to a vega APU?
Anyway in a few short months we should see Navi APU's, I do hope for 8core models but possibly that is hopeful thinking (even tho Intel have 8core apus....)

So let me get this straight, you pay $50-60usd for a game on Stadia, can play it while having a subscription only, and if they shut the thing down or remove that title from the store you get your save-games so you can then go over to GOG or Steam to buy the game again on your actual PC..... yeah no thanks, how people can't see that scenario as being a complete scam is beyond me!
Live and survive as a dinosaur in "Path of Titans", a new survival game coming to Linux

I would actually be ok if this was a battle royal, but not a exclusively BR game, sick of games that have just one mode and no story or other features, I mean its ok for a f2p game.
ALso this looks similar or identical to another game people were playing allot on windows about a year ago, related with dinosaurs hunting each other etc....
