Quoting: GuestHow will this affect Linux gaming in the long run?

No effect as RMS condemned non-free software which most games are.

Don't forget about GOG! :P

Quoting: toorWell... I'll pass. After waiting for years, still no gog galaxy. My money will go to stores where they support linux more seriously

Try out GameHub. Merges GOG and Steam libraries and if you are using a Windows game in Linux, can leverage Proton, DOSBox, and ScummVM for non native games.

Roberta, a new Steam Play compatibility tool to play games with a native ScummVM

I use GameHub for GOG games and like how they integrate native DOSBox and ScummVM. Would like to see Valve take the same approach for Steam Play out of the box. :-)

I got shot in the head in Kindergarten 2 and helped a janitor declare war, it's out now

Considering the recent shootings where Republicans are blaming games for them, this game released at a bad time and is in bad taste. Especially school shootings.

Steam Play Proton 4.11 released, a pretty huge release pulling in D9VK and a replacement for esync

Quoting: jarhead_hI'm not saying you have to re-buy your GOG library over on Steam, but you should really start buying stuff there if you aren't already.

You keep saying that you want to reward developers that support Linux, well I'd say that Valve counts.

If you use GameHub and import your GOG library, it will allow you to use Proton like Steam. It’s pretty neat.

Epic Games' Tim Sweeney talks Linux and gaming some more, says Linux is "great"

99.9% of game playing is on mobile, console, and PC.

For us Linux gamers, PC is a general term and it would have been more accurate if he just said “PCs running Windows”

Ubuntu LTS releases (and so derivatives too) to get updated NVIDIA drivers without PPAs

It would be nice to have something similar for AMD users that we can opt in for. Maybe keep the standard packages but also offer a -latest set of packages that always keep you current.

Insurgency: Sandstorm for Linux not due until next year, with a beta likely first
25 Jun 2019 at 3:21 am UTC

This game was a total flop and they could have capitalized on the less crowded FPS genre on Linux.

Even if I were to play on Windows, it still remains overpriced and I heard the game performs poorly. Oh and the player base is low.
