I'll bet Deckard is the codename for Half-Life III ;-)

Now, if it had been Corbyn's Techbase then I'd be there ;-)

I've been playing the hell out of the EA version and I highly recommend this game if you like your post-apocalyptic RPGs. Well written with lots of exploration and action, plus a sense of humour: buy it :-)

At least the original client had 'buttons'. I really am not a fan of flat UIs!

First-person psychological horror \SPEK.TAKL\ - Banned Edition is out now

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 :-)

Quoting: Retrograde_i486Also loaded up with Proton-6.15-GE-2 just fine here if anyone uses that.

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.
