Maybe not putting so much effort into making the game unable to play on anything else then switch it would be better to spend the money supporting more devices through yuzu project, so it doesn't need to do special hacks to actually allow the games to be played on something else.

But in case of Nintendo that is probably just a dream.

I already have around 60 hours on it. Looking forward to go back to Halls of Torment, especially when there is something new to explore :-)

Quoting: Soulprayer

Quoting: ZlopezBut PoE is Free to Play so it's understandable that you have microtransactions. Diablo IV and Last Epoch aren't.

Ok, Wolcen is more similar for funding the game - it's just less successful.
Buy "license" for playing, get access - microtransactions for longterm sustainability of the game.

If the game is still fun to play without using microtransactions. But usually you want people manipulate to use microtransactions, so you are making things slower without money for longer playing players.

There are few games that actually use microtransactions just for cosmetics, which is then on you to buy them or not and I think in this case it's great (especially without lootboxes).

Quoting: SoulprayerLast time I tried Last Epoch with Linux native, it didn't work good.
But with Proton it's runs pretty well.
I'll install it anyway again, when 1.0 hits the countdown.

Quoting: ZlopezI'm wondering if Last Epoch has actually better monetization than Diablo IV.

Last Epochs monetization is a little bit like PoE.

PoE? You mean Pillars of Eternity? I don't think that has anything else than price tag + DLCs, which is OK.

I'm wondering if Last Epoch has actually better monetization than Diablo IV. I don't like the microtransactions in game, especially in games that I buy for full price.

Last Epoch looks like a good alternative to Diablo in this case.

Quoting: Tadas-EstidalUE5 and steamdeck - oof.

I hope they can get it optimized enough yo at least do 30fps stable(60 maybe?)

I already tried few UE5 games on SteamDeck and it handles them without issue. But the battery is usually being drained quickly (about one hour on medium settings and 40 FPS lock).

I'm surprised to see Jim Whitehurst as Interim CEO for Unity. I thought that he currently has some top management function in IBM after being CEO of Red Hat.

I would like to see Aliens: Dark Descent Verified. From what I saw it does work, it just isn't much playable on Steam Deck.

Already have this on my wishlist, pretty excited about it. It doesn't seem like something I already saw before.
