GE-Proton 10-2 brings some essential fixes for Windows games on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck

If you have the vk_hdr_layer package for kwin, it may screw up HDR for some people, especially those using ITM feature in Gamescope, will cause artifacting etc.. So something to be wary of when updating to Proton10.
Denuvo will lock you out of games on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Deck if you keep changing Proton versions

It seems when you reinstall a prefix from scratch, game drm often consider it a brand new PC so denuvo thinks your using it on multiple PC's.

It's all very backwards way of thinking and quite surprising denuvo still has this problem. I've known about it before and have hit it the issue once in the past.
Steam Deck sales still going strong over three years later

It's still the best priced handheld.

I did however pick up a secondhand Ally and installed Bazzite on it, not bad. Has the Z1E APU in it, I did upgrade the battery and cooling.
DOOM: The Dark Ages needs workarounds on Linux with AMD GPUs, a fix has been merged into Mesa

Apparently on NVIDIA frame gen may crash some users and also the frame rate could be locked at your display refresh rate even when turning off vsync etc.

Also Denuvo is banning some linux users, because, yeah why not I guess......
End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending

Well people who are hooked into GamePass or Kernel-AC are always excluded from any transition to Linux.
The nanosecond they realise they loose those things, the drive will be formatted and restored to Windows.

NOW If GamePass and Windows subscriptions get too close, then I think that will certainly sway even more people.
MS will be increasing sub cost of GamePass soon, and Windows may well become a subscription service in the soon future. Pay $20 a year to start with, with that value going up each year.
Valve developers continue to impress, fixing Proton in less than a day for the Starfield Beta

I hope these fixes are not title specific and more about fixing global issues in proton so that we don't have these problems hitting other games that do the same thing.

11 bit studios are remaking the original Frostpunk in Unreal Engine 5 with Frostpunk 1886

If UE5 could fix their terrible default configs and performance issues along with EXCESSIVE requirement to use upscaling and sometimes framegen... then I wouldn't mind so much... but that is where we are today.
