Has no one mentioned Hades ? I'm 30 hours in and still enjoying it. Runs perfectly out of the box with steamplay. Although you have to use the directx version as the Vulkan one surprisingly doesn't work.

Quoting: LinasSo it is for linux games then. Another step to the existing libs bundled with steams. I thought this was to package proton/wine configs, I think it is misplaced, or mislabeled. Why does it appear on windows games ?Quoting: minidouI still don't understand what a user is supposed to make of "Steam Linux Runtime".Not so much right now. Although it is already useful for getting games like Dying Light to work properly.
The whole idea is to give a stable runtime environment to the game developers where you don't need to care about what distribution is the game run on, or that upgrades to the system would break something. It is essentially a Linux compatibility layer for Linux to address the main argument a lot of people have against Linux - fragmentation.

Now it just needs to be rewritten in rust.
G2A has paid Wube Software over illegitimate Factorio keys

The only problem is still Wube not having knowledge on how to make a decent online store. They wanted to cut corners they should have implemented 3-D Secure and such and kept an history of key binded to transaction id, it's not rocket science.

This "new technologies" bit was interesting, perhaps they've decided to go DirectX 12 with an Unreal Engine upgrade?They wouldn't make directX12 mandatory, so that can't make an argument.
Update: Psyonix are now suggesting to request a refund from them on their support portal.Well that's bullshit cause their refund page states :
If you'd like a refund for a Steam purchase, upon contacting them their own refunding criteria will apply. It is possible to qualify for one. This may trigger an automatic purchasing ban on our system. You can dispute the purchasing ban, we'll simply need you to submit a ticket with the explanation of the refund request. We'll take it from there!https://support.rocketleague.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015502374-Refunds [External Link]

New Steam Client Beta upgrades the Linux Steam Runtime Container and Remote Play Together

Should I try to run games with Steam Linux Runtime instead of proton ? SLR is the default now. If it's based on containers how would that work if no one bothered making a container image for non whitelisted games ?

I'm not confused on how to download a wine version, I'm confused on which I should download to suit my needs and what do they mean. It needs wine package descriptions and tags, as well as a filter feature.
