I tried the demo of this game way back and it needed a lot of work. It was kind of clunky and performance was atrocious. Sounds like performance is still not great, but since the game sounded kind of interesting I may have a look.

Due to the degrading functionality of SteamVR, I've been running open source solutions for the past month. Monado has been running great for OpenXR games with higher framerates and smoother operation than SteamVR ever has. It's using the proprietary drivers from SteamVR for the lighthouses because libsurvive accuracy is just not there yet. Hopefully this move will help.

Running OpenVR games using OpenComposite (to translate OpenVR into OpenXR) is a bit of a hit or miss. Some games work great, but a lot have issues or fail to run entirely.

Gave it a thumbs down and refund in the beginning of the EA period. It couldn't deal with ultrawide displays and it was impossible to rebind keys making it unplayable. Bought it again this year and everything has been fixed or added, so good on the devs. Weird game. That's not a bad thing, but with my reflexes going to regular factory games it was a little weird and then Satisfactory and Factorio gave us major updates so I left it. I'll give it a proper go sometime soon though!

I guess someone crunched the numbers and found that it was taking away too much of the potential market. A reduction of the number of blacklist titles this time.

Is Ghost of Tsushima losing the PSN requirements too? Or did it sell too well for them to care?

Wasn't that one always optional?

Looks very Day of the Tentacle. That may come with some high expectations though.

I guess this means that drivers 555 and up are not affected. Don't see any word about those.

The "problem" with this game is that there is so much to figure out that it represents a big time investment. So far I haven't really gotten into it far enough to say if it's worth it. But maybe I'll give it a serious attempt this year now that it's closer to final release.

Something trying to imitate external(Windows) behavior still runs in the kernel.
Something will try to access an edge case and render the entire thing catatonic.

That applies to everything in the kernel and therefore every piece of software. There's a reason why these patches take so long to be accepted in the mainline kernel.

Some devs really can't bother with accessibility features. That's why I reward those (in my case without key rebinding options) with a refund.

First time that I actually own (and played) every game in the bundle. So the bundle must be good! Although not sure Learning Factory really fits in with the other games.
