Currently playing The Witcher via Proton, planning on doing the whole trilogy.

OpenRazer 3.0.0 expands with many new Razer devices supported on Linux

Quoting: NezchanOpenRazer doesn't seem to pick up my Deathadder v2 at all, so Polychromatic has nothing to work with. Bit of a disappointment, really.
That's odd. I've got a DeathAdder V2 and it works well. Waiting for BlackWidow V3, though.

Aaaand, it's gone. [External Link] No suprise, they gained knowledge from the original decompiled executables, which is a no-go.

Last week I bought The Witcher 3 GOTY because it was on a massive sale. I played through the semi-native TW2 to remind myself of the story and I'm now playing TW3 through Steam Play. Works like a charm so far, apart from a few crashes that got solved by verifying the integrity of game cache - probably had some kind of a download problem somewhere.

Quoting: MayeulC
for those of you using Mesa, you should see "drastically improved memory usage" for versions of Mesa below 19
So, is it below as written, or above, as I previously thought?
When put into context with this article about Mesa 19 on Phoronix [External Link], I think might be right as written, that is, below, because the new also Mesa has a fix for memory problems with TF2.

Man, they're really pushing the original Source engine to the limit, aren't they?

I think this is rather clever. Some things just need to be achieved gradually, instead of all at once. The gradual approach could be sort of a proof-of-concept that will show others that the open-source way is indeed viable for hardware, too. I like it.

This weekend I'm playing Cities: Skylines. I've been contemplating buying it for a long time and now a sale came on, was an insta-buy.

Does Bitwig Studio count as a game? Ok it doesn't but it's what I'm playing around with. And it's on Linux! :D
