Quoting: Mountain ManYeah... I don't buy this. Someone got busted for using cheat software and is trying to fight it with a lame excuse.
You were right , article updated !

I dunno… Why should I?
If someone finds it completely acceptable to tell on behalf of everyone what we can and what we can not afford, then I have all rights to say what I think myself. :P

Quoting: LeopardSame old GOG lovers…
Thank you. Your opinion is very important to us. :whistle:
But honestly, what has GOG to do with this news? And, BTW, all your post can be "corrected" by substituting "GOG" with "Valve" and it will remain being "correct".
If it isn't important , then don't quote it and don't put effort to reply.

I wonder what GOG done for Linux exactly if you say it will remain correct if we replace Valve with GOG.

Work on drivers , X.org , Vulkan , Wayland?
Pushing Linux as a viable platform?
Bringing VR to it?

I'm not a Valve lover but i want to support them by using their store because they support Linux , unlike GOG.

Same old GOG lovers taking their chance to attack Valve , with forgetting being thankful to Valve.

Also a note ; GOG and CDPR doesn't like Linux as half as your love towards them.

Sometimes i wish to turn back to these dark days, before 2013. Valve does not deserve these kind of treatment.

Quoting: tmtvlUgh, still so many people using the crappy NVidia garbage. I suppose that'll change as Wayland becomes more prominent.

Wonder how many people are gonna switch from Intel to AMD after the IME stuff...
Because it works most of the time and performs better than AMD.
Weird. It's exactly the same reason i made the switch to "team red" a good 5-6 years ago. It just worked. (and was cheaper even back then)
Nope.

First of all , AMD driver space is so fragmented.

OpenGL side ; you will get better performance from open source drivers.

Vulkan ; mixed results. Sometimes Radv sometimes closed source driver wins. I hope AMDVLK can improve RADV.

So as a gamer ; we want performance right? Yeah , then we should use open source drivers.

But on Mesa you can't play some games without doing workarounds. For example; Divinity , Dying Light , X11 etc.

With Amdgpu Pro ; you don't need to hassle like that but it will cost you performance wise. Also note that Hdmi audio , Freesync etc are not available with Mesa.

So ; AMD is not "just" works.

Without forget freezing in certain apps

Yep , i'm experiencing this on Cs Go and Talos Principle.

I filled bug report to Nvidia but they didn't care , that's what i like on open source AMD drivers. You will file the bug report and there was an interest to it at least.

Quoting: LeopardThey were busy releasing Civ6 for Ipad's.
but damn, I'm actually seriously considering buying an ipad just for that game lol...
Price seemed a bit high to me. For a mobile device game of course.

You can play 60 turns for free then you have to pay.
