Performance and pricing seem to be in line with the rest of the 4xxx series. That said, the pricing of the entire 4xxx is to high. For now, I'm sticking with my 2080 Ti and wait for the next generation AMD high end GPU.

Quoting: ShabbyXThen reality hits and they're going to whine about Linux.Not fair towards this particular developer since they proved with the first one that even if it is a non-trivial task, they still do it. Unlike a lot of other developers that simply cancel the port.

Very nice! Seems to work very well. The only complaint I had when trying it is that the scroll position of the list is not remembered when you go back to it. I was checking the install size of a few games and having to start at the top again after going back was slightly annoying.
Also noticed that the "nile" dev is working on Heroic now. So I'm hopeful that the amazon games stuff might eventually make it into Heroic as well so I have all my alternative sources in one place.

Waaaay back in the early days of Steam on Linux, I decided to not spend money on anything with 3rd party dependencies. In the years since then it has been made clear many times that this was the right decision. So happy to say that this does not affect me.
AMD GPU driver on Linux and Steam Deck to get big improvement on stuttering problems

I've enabled proton experimental for a couple of games and it works nicely. It doesn't completely eliminate stutter, but it's definitely a big step up. The biggest test for it was Star Citizen, which still has noticeable stutter but more in line with DXVK_ASYNC builds. And a far cry from the multiple second stalls with plain DXVK.

Quoting: mr-victoryAlso no mention of Denuvo, but it's still there. You'll have to ask someone who bought it to make sure.Quoting: LanzDoes the remake require EA App?Requires agreement to a 3rd-party EULAAaand that's it. No mention of Origin / EA App on Steam.

Since it appears to work well on a regular Linux PC, it's probably not going to be as simple as a Proton patch.

Quoting: Liam DaweIt would be nice if they separated the deck and general reports though. It's really annoying to have to search for where the desktop reports begin. Something tabbed or folded that is remembered between pages.Quoting: gabber- Protondb is more like steamdeckdb now. Only showing "Deck Verified Games"Just factually false.

It is possible that they did a little workaround somewhere to make it run on Steam Deck and they check for it to apply that. Possibly to do with starting appropriate non-crashing graphics settings.
Not going to test it though. Base game for 80 euro. A deluxe edition over a hundred. And of course some unacceptable denuvo. Good thing there is nothing about this game that sounds appealing to me.
