If Wayland were a pie it would be filling up the house with a delicious aroma right now.
It still needs some more time in the owen but it's smelling good. :D

Baldur's Gate 3 is now Steam Deck Verified

This is beta. It's full of bugs.

Quoting: shibThat was early access. Alpha version.Quoting: devlandReading the comments here makes me all the more happy that I didn't buy it day one.brother they did that 3 years ago already
It's sad that even Larian jumped on the "pay full price for the beta tester privelege" band-wagon.
It's best to just wait a year or so with titles as bis as this. That way you get a smoother experience and maybe even a lower price in the inevitable holiday sale entry.

Total War: WARHAMMER III for Linux updated to v3.1

It really doesn't matter as long as the years old segmentation fault crash is still happening and Feral actively refuses to fix it.
At this point I really do hope all porting companies go bankrupt since their contributions have been marginal at best while open source hobby grade translation layers like DXVK not only work better but are actively maintained and improved with only a fraction of the budget.

To be fair, Feral ports for Toal War games all have the segfault crash that happens randomly. It's been in their games for years.
Proton/Wine + dxvk also works better overall. Sad but true.

I really like GOG and their no DRM policy. :)
I always buy from GOG if the game is available on Steam as well.
Offline installers FTW!

Quoting: ZapporYou have to login to play. There are no "offline characters".Quoting: devlandFYI, characters are stored on their servers. You have to login to play.This is completely wrong, offline characters are stored locally.
Offline play is promised at release. Shady stuff IMO.

Sales must not be going so good.
Better add more tower defense modes and fix less bugs. That'll fix it!

10 years ago Steam released for Linux

Good Linux ports are rare but they do happen. dxvk makes up for the rest.

Quoting: 1xokMy first game was Tropico 5, which I even bought at full price. I can still remember hovering over the buy button for a while, wondering whether I should really do it.Love Tropico 5 on Linux. Great performance too. Tropico 6 is also great especially since the base game has most of what you get in 5 but with dlcs.
