Blight looks like a challenging top-down survival game worth keeping an eye on

Curious about this one. First time I signed up for the play test.

Looks seriously cool. I hope the whole package of story and gameplay is on the same level.

Makes you wonder if Valve is preparing their library for say, a portable device with lower specs. :wink:

Valheim roadmap update, Hearth & Home due 'Q3 2021' and we know some of what's coming

Was waiting for that update so I could use it in my new base. The roof would be especially nice since we really just have one now. Would also like to see wood that doesn't degrade outside. I'll probably need that time to come up with a good design though, so maybe it's for the better. :grin:

What would be their use?

NVIDIA driver 470 for Linux to include support for async reprojection
10 Jun 2021 at 8:41 am UTC

After all this time it's still vague as to what was actually missing in the nvidia driver. All I have seen is a referenced vulkan extension, but that has been supported for a while and did not change anything as far as I know.

What have you been tapping play on recently? Let us know

Had a bit of a random game week since it was too hot to think straight. Did some Star Citizen since it was free to try again last week. It actually seemed more stable this time, who would have thought. With that I played some Quern and Autonauts.

Will never happen while it's called GIMP.
Unfortunately, the project for GIMP-that's-not-called-GIMP withered on the vine.
It's a obscure non-contextual meaning in one language that is not the native language of most people. You can't expect the general population to care.

Quoting: robertosf92Can this happen with GIMP? Not in quite some time, I think.
Don't think so either. For professional level 3D modellers/renderers there was a huge market gap. For a lot of supporting parties there is a clear benefit of having one sit in a place that was affordable to regular people and companies just starting out. This is not really the case for image manipulation where Adobe stepped in to serve that segment by itself.

NVIDIA DLSS coming to Proton, plus GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and GeForce RTX 3070 Ti announced

Quoting: toojaysHopefully this means Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition will be playable soon. Although I only have a 2060 so maybe it's irrelevant.
It plays OK on my system minus the RT and DLSS which show in options but not accessible. and DLSS should help with a 2060 once up and running. Real test will be when we see what Proton does with Q2 RTX v the native Linux version.
That's the normal version, not the enhanced edition. And Q2RT in Vulkan, so doesn't require any translation.

Quoting: mylkayou cant buy non TI
why the F do they make a TI then?
Maybe to distribute their mining restricted GPUs so that they actually have a chance of delivering them to gamers?
