Funny how Eliza is a name of one of the first interactive programs that was written for exactly this purpose

Great! Madness is a series I kinda grew up (heh), back in the days I played a lot of Madness Interactive back then. I kinda skipped Project Nexux on Newgrounds and only played it briefly, but great to know the current one is coming to Linux proper!

So… what's there left for Valve to surprise us :P? (I like it so far)

I wish there could be an option to use a Google Cardboard as a testing device for SteamVR on Linux (the quality is generally awful, but it's good for testing). It is possible to emulate HTC Vive on Windows for SteamVR via RiftCat's VRidge, but it's Windows only and not open source. Last time I checked there were some other similar projects, but I couldn't get any of them working under Linux. Not sure about Wine/Proton.

Steam Controller Controller :)

I kinda wish I'd have one though – I prefer KB+M over all the controllers I tested so far (Xboxes, Playstations, Gamecube, Switch, reto consoles or the generic ones…), thouhg I'd love to give Steam Controller a try. I kinda hope they will get a huge sale like steam links someday, maybe with the release of v2 if it ever comes to it, as the price and shipping from Valve is really expensive and no local retailers have it anyway.

However, if it'd be about the 30% cut itself, itch with up to 0% would be overflowing with AAA games already.

More DLLs are built as PE files by default.

What does it mean? What kind of files are DLL in Wine? I thought all DLL files are PE by default, or do it means the file that previously were .so are .dll now?

If so and I understand it correctly, then it's interesting, as it means more MinGW-GCC usage instead of regular GCC, so kinda opposite of DXVK winelib was supposed to achieve?

@massatt212 I'd also recommend https://github.com/Tk-Glitch/PKGBUILDS/tree/master/proton-tkg [External Link] especially for those at Arch and deriviatives :)

It's actually called Reverse Valve Time [External Link] :)

Quoting: gradyvuckovicFor Linux (& Mac) gamers, that would mean all those games currently not playable on Linux, the 40% or so of Steam that isn't quite there yet with Proton, would suddenly immediately become playable via an alternative solution, ie: streaming from a Valve server. Effectively bringing all Steam games to Linux.

Except if their internal backend would run Linux, just like Stadia – which may as well be the case they are spending so much time on Linux, either SteamBox2 or both, hm…
