Nice, but would be much better with an AMD graphics.

Star Trek: Infinite from Paradox releases October 12

The lack of a native Linux port is a huge disappointment to me (especially considering that other games from Paradox Interactive got native ports) and the reason why I won't buy this game even though I am a huge Star Trek fan.

What about the original version? Is it still available?

By the way, I still dream of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars being re-released on Steam.

Steam gets overhauled with new overlay, Steam Deck big stable update
15 Jun 2023 at 8:58 pm UTC

Looks and works great! The only two small things I've noticed so far are:

1. It is not possible to launch selected games in small mode by pressing Enter key.
2. Opening the Steam overlay in CS:GO causes the game to hang and/or crash.

UK CMA blocks the Microsoft takeover of Activision
26 Apr 2023 at 3:42 pm UTC

This is actually bad news. Activision is not a good company at all. They did countless bad things to Blizzard and other companies they own. The acquisition had a potential to change it for the better (and possibly bring Blizzard games to Steam :-)).

Valve rolls out Proton 8.0 to further improve Steam Deck and Linux gaming
18 Apr 2023 at 10:46 am UTC

It looks like I have found a small regression. Some games do not detect the correct system language anymore when using Proton 8.0. Instead, they default to using English locale. But maybe this is somehow related to the Flatpak Steam I use or the new Sniper runtime.
