I could have been interested in Assassin’s Creed, and maybe RDR2, but they’re not enough for me to trust Stadia. Borderlands 3 is kind of tempting, though. There is no guarantee that it will run well on Proton when it drops on Steam. I can wait and see, though. And obviously I’d rather buy Tomb Raider straight from Feral.

On a different note, Just Dance definitely isn’t the kind of game I expected here. I feel like the slightest lag would ruin the experience.

Oh, I tried this one a while ago. Not my usual cup of tea but I enjoyed playing a few games to figure out the resource economy.

I wonder if they will fix the ordering of the recent news shelf anytime soon. Yesterday, this week, this week, yesterday (‽), last week, this week...

Did the Gnome people actually post the relevant patent and claim anywhere? Not that I don’t trust them per se, but out of principle I would like to see the documents before I consider donating to their lawsuit.

Quoting: GuestBTW, have you guys seen the new Tux logo they've put at the top left menu?
I would love to see that same icon replacing the SteamOS one, it's far better than the classic Tux.

To be honest, at that size, if I didn’t know it’s a penguin I’d think it’s a fat fly seen from above. Or an inverted light bulb with flaps.

Hm, thanks. Couldn't find this with Google or on Twitter directly, but I'm not sure I would if it exists. :)

I don't have a Twitter account.
This make things even harder to find.

That's why I said "take it with a grain of salt".
Maybe someone finds that tweet.

Every game I’ve tried there has been unplayably laggy, so I’m guessing it doesn’t play nice with Firefox.

I skipped the previous game because it looked too similar to TR 2013 and I wasn’t really feeling like replaying that, but from what I’m hearing this has less combat and more interesting platforming so I might give it a shot.

I was also using Mint back in 2017 and had no issues with it either. Maybe there was an update to something since then that broke it, or vice versa if you played it before I did.

Anyway, this is going on the wishlist and we'll see how it goes :)

Interesting to see so many people giving this a pass just because it has a specific main character. Maybe I’m too used to point-and-clicks and other games where this is customary, but do those people also miss out on the likes of Zelda, Metroid or Tomb Raider for the same reason?
