Some people seem to think by sniffing their own farts and acting all high and mighty by not buying anything that isn't native linux will somehow change the situation for linux gamers...I'm here to tell you, IT WON'T

Until Linux gets a PLAYER BASE of %5-10, the majority of developers will not care. So I say just play what you want, how you want, regardless of native support. If anything that will get us to that %5-10 faster and only THEN will developers start releasing more natives.

Essentially when it comes to Linux, the chicken(player) comes first. Then eventually developers (egg) will come later. No amount of soap box fart sniffing will change that!

Cities: Skylines is another game having a free weekend on Steam right now

I was going to get this until I realised it has like 100 DLC's for $204 or something, if they ever have a COMPLETE pack for sale, like 90% I'd consider it.

Finally a positive move by the Epic storm team...

But I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have announced linux support if google didn't mention they were using it for their gaming platform.. either way its a small win for tux.

Yeah I was hoping for %125 or maybe %150 scaling.

So sad that we will never see Phoenix Point, even after they released a Linux demo.. :(

Quoting: Boldos
Quoting: aristoriasCan the app finally support HiDPI? It is a real pain to use that thing on a 4K monitor ...
Steam client can scale it's GUI on 4K currently.
It actually scales too big on my 4k screen, I only want a %25-50 scaling increase. That is whats missing, atm it seems to do a %100 enlargement and is a bit overboard...

Also what EPIC is doing is called poaching, there not making developers come there way out of goodness of their heart. They are offering up millions to go EPIC store exclusive where there was no plan to before. Poaching.

SteamOS is alive with a new beta and updated drivers, also a new Steam Client Beta is out

Just amazes me how a restrictive as all hell proprietary API can even exist this day and age, clearly Microsoft are tossing money around in order to incentives companies!
