I hope you like Anime & Manga styled games, as GOG just added 10 with Linux support

So , i'm not a VN gamer guy but i tried that free one ( Sunrider ) to see how it is sexual by Valve means.

So far , there is 0 sexual drawings etc. What was the deal then?
What are you playing on Linux this weekend and what do you think about it?

Shadow of Mordor and Rocket League.

Shadow of Mordor is a good port but would be better with a Vulkan backend i guess.

Rocket League Rumble mode is a lot of fun.

I also tried Skyrim SE with DXVK but no luck since it looks like can't load necessary files with that error:

The Steam Link Android app is now out, works quite well so far

Quoting: aukondkI had a little play. Only controller I have is a 360 compatible wireless with a dongle so I tried it on my tablet over OTG. Big picture works fine with the controller but a couple of games I tried didn't work. I guess because I usually connect the controller to the game direct rather than through Steam.

I fired up FTL as I always wanted it on my tablet. Pinch to zoom works for the fiddly buttons but I had to double tap to select sometimes and couldn't work out how to right click.
Did you try holding your finger pressed for make right click work?
Just a guess

Quoting: dRaiserIndeed Steam Link App seems to work very well.

Multimonitor woes with stream streaming are nothing new unfortunately - I've resorted for script which disable my 2 of 3 monitors when I want to stream [to my other PCs or Steam Link hardware as well]. Don't like it, but what will you do.

As for Android streaming itself, I've checked it on my Nvidia Shield K1 Tablet with FHD resolution - I thought it'd be perfect for games like Stellaris or Shadowrun, but darn UI is too small! Will probably try with streaming 720p instead of FHD.
I think this won't be suitable for strategy or FPS titles.

But that will be good for racing games like Dirt Rally or games like Darkest Dungeon , Shadow of Mordor , Tomb Raider etc.
The Linux version of squad based Roguelike 'Steam Marines' has nearly become profitable

What's even more interesting, is that with Steam's current market share for Linux being at 0.55% it seems that it's actually doing quite well.
If we would overflowing with AAA's like Windows , i think that wouldn't be the same

Quoting: Xpander
Quoting: KallestofelesThe developer behind DXVK probably has a ton of great job offers in his mailbox already I imagine. :P ^_^
im quite sure he is already hired, if not he is just insane :) working 24/7 on it. commits every day, active in the github issues and in discord. Can't be that he is doing this all just for fun :)
Or he is just a hobbyist , with has lot of money to live without worrying about next day and doing it for fun really :P

Lol , i know it is nearly impossible but not entirely :P
The developer of Crazy Justice has shown off a quick teaser of it on Ubuntu

Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: LeflI can't really see how this is going to be somewhat successfull.
From the Teaser it almost exactly looks like Fortnite.

Im not expecting it to take over Fortnite or PUBG, but I don't think a lot of people will play it
given that they want to sell it for 25$ (~20€).
The same can be said for any game that's similar to any other. I highly doubt they're going in expecting the level of success of Fortnite.

Do remember we're a Linux site, we don't have anything like Fortnite and it probably never will come to Linux. For us, Crazy Justice is a safe bet.
Look at his profile. He is using Windows too and his comparisons will be Windows based , not Linux.
A fresh DXVK release is out with fixes for NVIDIA, RADV and multiple game improvements

Quoting: skyrrd@Leopard i took thqt information from information and discussion on youtube-videos. Didn't have the chance to test myself and will not. I just recently ditched my windows vm and am not eager to buy a new title for testing purpose.
Yep , i agree with you. To me ; buying a title in order to run it with Wine is pointless. Because i don't want to put money for unguarenteed compability on a test bed.

Quoting: skyrrdFrom what i have read the rendering of far cry 5 does work rather well, but it's the drm that is blocking right now.

Correct me if i'm wrong but without removal of copy protection/drm its not possible to play far cry 5 with wine and dxvk atm.
Don't know how people tried FC5 on DXVK then , maybe they used cracked versions to see how it performs. You can try if you want.
