Quoting: MalYou know Sweeney present day stance [External Link] on windows right?

Yeah, but Microsoft loves Linux, so Epic will soon loves Linux too! And as Windows 10 will soon ship a full Linux kernel and is now promoting their new terminal app featuring various Linux distributions: "if you do not want to come to Canada, Canada will come to you!" ^_^

At least it's a great improvement in their communication! :)

Quoting: devnullWould be interesting if someone from Valve could comment on what it means but regarding the survey you can check when your last report was with

grep -i survey ~/.steam/steam/config/config.vdf

I get

"SurveyDateVersion" "-8455477975071795344"
"SurveyDate" "2018-06-10"
"SurveyDateType" "2"

Which looks quite odd not only because of the version but I don't get popups about it. Maybe 2 means opted out? Considering I don't use windows at all that could be at least a year of not being counted.

Aaaaah thx! :)

"SurveyDateVersion"     "-6503779413840319068"
"SurveyDate"            "2018-11-01"
"SurveyDateType"        "2"

My previous one was 2017-11-01, so at least the survey seems to pop up one time a year... :|

Quoting: vskyeI really don't think that's reflective of the use of Linux on Steam. I haven't had a hardware survey pop up in over a year now, and I bet I'm not the only one.

Hardware survey seems to popup once a year at the anniversary date of the previous one from what I can tell from my limited personal experience (but others seems to tell the same story as I once read somewhere - perhaps on GoL - a way to get the date of the last prompt to confirm this "trend"). :)

Tested and reported on Protondb:
* Virginia: platinum (Proton 3.7-8, 4.2-1, 4.2-2 and 4.2-3)
* Mirror's Edge: platinum (Proton 4.2-3, some heavy drops in framerate from time to time which is a bit strange looking at system requirements but it's maybe the same on Windows)
* Marie's Room (f2p short "demo"): "platinum" (Proton 4.2-3, work "out of the box" but some problems with my AZERTY keyboard - perhaps not related to Proton - and blackscreen on credits)

Incoming:
* Remember Me

I wasn't too much hyped by Proton but I have to say that it works well! :)

Quoting: EhvisOn Steam it says "Requires 3rd-Party Account: Last Epoch". Why does a single player game need a 3rd party account?

Online multiplayer seems to be on the roadmap! :)

Quoting: ArehandoroI always wish my heart and courage were strong enough to play horror games. Maybe in another life... although based on my luck probably in another life i would get to be a zombie xD

If you enjoy good SF story and don't mind some psychological horror elements in it you should try SOMA with the "safe mode" (which disable most of the "aggressive" encounters)! I'm not to much in horror too but the story that the game tell is (imho) worth every anguish that you may experienced in it. :)

Worth mentioning that The Glass Staircase should be also available on Steam in a few months! :)

It reminds me the (excellent) comics BLACKSAD, which ironically is coming as a video game soon (on Steam [External Link]. :)

Shadow Tactics Blades of the Shogun has a nice 66% discount on Steam now (until April 26) for those who might be interested (and there is a free demo if you want to try it before)! :)
