First-person psychological horror \SPEK.TAKL\ - Banned Edition is out now
25 Aug 2021 at 3:19 pm UTC Likes: 1

Quoting: Purple Library GuyMind you, anyone can say Lynch and Cronenberg. Let us know if the reality matches up.
Well, I've obtained two endings so far! The imagery is suitably disturbing and I would say the images lean more towards Cronenberg than Lynch (apart from one obvious reference).

The pixellation is heavy enough that I wonder what Valve actually had an issue with. There are a number of items to interact with and the keyboard controls are responsive and familiar enough. The background sound and tv programmes are effective and well-integrated into the atmosphere, too.

Give it a go. It's a steal at that price :-)

Lynch and Cronenberg you say? I have just purchased this and hope to be suitably entertained :-)

So I started D9VK as a spite project that night in my hotel room.
I love this :-)

Quoting: buckysrevengeI saw on the Steam forums that someone changed the wincfg from Windows 10 to Windows 7 and that fixed it for them, I haven't tested it out myself.
Just done this and it works! Ping is currently way too high through :-)

Oh and to skip the obnoxious 6 intro videos put this as a launch option in Steam: -skipmovies
Thank you for this! They were bugging me :-)

Steam Play tool Luxtorpeda gets some needed upgrades and better KDE Plasma support

For anyone still having trouble with KDE Plasma dialogs, I found that if I changed 'default' to 'zenity' in config.json then my games magically launched! My Plasma setup normally has no issues but with this version of luxtorpeda the kdialog box would not function at all.

Didn't last long: Back 4 Blood no longer working on Linux with Proton

Quoting: m2mg2Got a link to the details on that? It is fixed in a specific wine version or is it fixed outside wine?
See this thread [External Link].

Quoting: m2mg2It appears the fix that made Roblox work in Linux also stopped working on the 12th. My son got a whole month of Roblox on Linux before it broke again.
It's already been fixed and a new Roblox-patched wine version can be sourced from the Grapejuice Discord channels.

Feral Interactive confirms Total War: WARHAMMER III for Linux is in progress

Quoting: deathxxxEnough of Warhammer ports! Is there no other games left?
https://www.feralinteractive.com/en/linux-games/ [External Link]

There's actually quite a mix in there.
I count eight Total War games, so almost a third of the games in that list are TW! Four in the list carry the name Warhammer; you can see how some might think that all Feral port are TW and Warhammer games. Shame Feral couldn't have signed up for some more varied franchises as I might have spent more with them.
