A peek at how many of the most popular games on Steam support Linux, December 2019 edition
30 Dec 2019 at 2:13 pm UTC

Quoting: GuestThinks are certainly good for gaming on a linux rig. I only need Warframe to be playable (argh, Destiny 2 as well) with proton and I can quit being a filthy dual booter :D
Warframe works https://www.protondb.com/app/230410 [External Link] but Destiny 2 probably won't ever because of EAC (Easy Anti Cheat)..

Steam Play Proton 4.11-10 out, mouse handling improvements and Halo: The Master Chief Collection works

This is, quite literally, a gamechanger. In this case, Fallout 4 finally works without jerking around the mouse it's impossible to hit anything or to walk in a straight line.

Now I'm playing Fallout 4 until January, with some breaks, like for working..

Do you hear an odd buzzing sound? Minecraft 1.15 is out with a new friend

Quoting: Pival81These new bees are an insult to the absolute perfection that are Forestry bees.
Forestry? It made the cut. It's a microcrafting hell. https://seegras.discordia.ch/Blog/bad-minecraft-mods/ [External Link]
Stay away.

Quoting: chancho_zombiedid you try running this command??

export STEAM_RUNTIME_PREFER_HOST_LIBRARIES=1 
Nice. With that I also get a working non-blank Library page.

In the multiplayer action game Foreskin Fury you get to hop around as a big wobbly penis

And this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is the opposite of a "mature" game. Age requirements are probably 16 and below.

Quoting: GuestThe Nvidia driver that is in the non-free repos is two months old.
418.74 in stable, and 430.26 in experimental.

I do have unstable in general, with experimental pinned to a low value, default would be 500. Here's part of my /etc/apt/preferences.d/pinning.pref
Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 700

Package: *
Pin: release o=Debian,a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 20

For those living on the edge, this is a good thing too, because those running Debian sid/unstable now again get loads of new software coming in (due to how Debian development works, the influx of new packages dies down on unstable as well, when the testing distribution goes into feature freeze).

Oh, and for those that want a (mostly) rolling release, sid/unstable is stable enough to run on my workstation. Has been for years. And it's usually even more up-to-date than Ubuntu ;).

Paradox Interactive on Linux support, it's being done on a "case by case basis"
1 Jul 2019 at 4:22 pm UTC

Quoting: PatolaLolwut. Paradox publishes mostly strategy games (Stellaris, Heart of Irons, Crusader Kings, Europa Universalis, Steel Division, Warlock 2, Age of Wonders III, Cities in Motion, Sword of the Stars, Sengoku, etc.), with RPGs in second place. And the Shadowrun series is comprised of RPGs, not strategy games. Aren't you switching genres in what you said? As in, how's it possible that you have all of the ones that came for Linux and don't play strategy games for the most part (considering you play your games, of course)?
Shadowrun is mostly strategy IMHO. Yes, it comes from a Pen & Paper RPG I even used to play, but the computer games are rather strategy-heavy.

All else, see for yourself:
