Hellpoint and Streets of Rage 4 have the very few times in which I got a game sooner rather than later in which I was very surprised by the content and quality. Hellpoint is just an excellent experience all around. Got all three endings and unlocked everything and I still want to go back in and try different weapons and runs. SoR4 is a family smash. Everyone I know owns it and it's one of the games we all want to play with each other all the time.

Quoting: BumadarSorry made you upset, it was a question, not an attack.
Wine, proton, dbox etc you run on your system, i see thwt as something diffrent then a streaming service, so that is why i asked, its cool that stadia uses linux, just like its cool the ps4 uses bsd, but it i dont see any of that comming downstream so i wondered if that was the reason. But if the reason is simply that the streaming works out of the box, cool.

As i said a question to understand the reason, nothing more.

Why would you assume I'm upset when I'm opening up the discourse? Proton is not Linux Native as was part of your original questions so how are they related to what you asked?

So far the non-Linux native games being made Linux native (down stream) in the last few years have been indie titles with the most recent and notable being Streets of Rage 4. Other bigger budget games are just not doing it at all or if they do, it will be toward end of life which has become rare. As more big budget games lean in on DRM they will be going to the cloud to secure their products. It's coming if it's not already here.

Quoting: BumadarI dont want to sound negative or anything, its a serious question :)

How come there is so much attention for stadia, i understand it runs on linux but its not really bringing (native) games to our beloved OS and i personally don't expect any of these aaa publisher to bring their now on stadia working games to linux. So from my point of view its another system like windows or ps4 or xbox.

As i said, its a serious question, maybe i am missing something :)

Buma.

So then don't cover WINE, Browser Based Games or any other game that you can play on Linux unless it's native? Why ask why? If you want to promote Linux native gaming, post in place like the forums or reddit or what not about your favorites to raise awareness about'em.

Stadia works on Linux. Uses Linux. You can game with it easily. Gaming On Linux seems fitting. There are sources for just Linux Native gaming, if that's exactly what you're looking for.

I've had a blast on Stadia but I still buy my DRM-FREE Linux native titles on GOG, Humble Bundle and itch.io first and foremost. The coverage of Stadia here has been great and has opened the door for more of my friends to not only game more but switch to Linux permanently for games like D2 that now runs without issue on Linux via Stadia.

Quoting: ageresI bought Mortal Kombat 4, and there is no sound. On Steam I at least could open a new issue on Proton GitHub. On GOG it's always my fault that I've bought a game for an unsupported OS.

I have that one and it works without issue on Ubuntu Mate 18.04. Perhaps, your distro and specs are the issue?

Not into crafting game but I like what I'm reading. Let's see if anyone else in my home is interested.

Been finding some great SP gems on Stadia since my MP gaming is now down to 1 day a week with work, family and other hobbies. Ended Little Nightmares, SteamWorld Heist, SteamWorld Quest and KONA. My friends and family are still playing Strange Brigade and Zombie Army 4. A few picked up BG3 but RPGs are not my thing. I will scope it out but I'm waiting for a few more free Google credits to buy some other games on there. I'm at 53.49 right now.

The ad was cool but like others online are saying they should be promoting the free console aspect of it? IDK, I just really enjoying it and I did not expect to be.

Edit - I'm very curious how the games in Pro make money? Liam did you cover this already and I missed it or can ya?

I'm using Google Chrome Browser on Ubuntu Mate 18.04 and I can not get this to work at all. Keep getting "Your Device is Unsupported."
