Quoting: F.Ultraexit: just checked the source of wine, proton and vkd3d and there is no implementation of the DirectStorage API whatsoever.

Haven't said they've implemented it, but that it works. I asked some of the Proton Devs if it works and they said:

should work fine, Direct Storage has a compute shader based fallback for drivers that dont implement the relevant MetaCommands

Quoting: PenglingAfter all, the specs look pretty reasonable, aside from the massive 75GB of storage that's required for it!

I don't know where that 75GB come from, it only consumes 39GB here.

Quoting: F.UltraSo this being the first game to use DirectStorage 1.2 that all the Windows fanbois are up in arms about so will be interesting to see how loading times will be in WINE/Proton here vs native Windows.

DirectStorage works with Wine/Proton as well. On my PC with a PCIe4 SSD the Portal jumps are pretty seamless. On the Deck not so much. Can take up to 3 seconds.

Quoting: sarmadYeah, I'm interested to see how this performs on the Deck. I doubt it'll be as seamless as it is on PS5.

It runs at pretty stable 30 FPS on lowest settings with FSR. It's playable, if you really want to play it on the Deck.

Unlikely that Nvidia will announce the 40 series. Two reasons: 1) Jensen Huang said in the investor meeting in August that the 40 series will come next year. 2) Nvidia usually doesn't announce Gaming hardware on the GTC, and they also have an AI Page online [External Link] for the GTC-

A crowdfunded game doesn't get a promised Linux port? Wow, that's new! /s

The Amazon integration doesn't work properly yet. The only thing which works, is connecting your account and load the list of games. None of the games can be installed, it just fails with an error on the terminal.

For the time being, I can suggest using the CLI tool Nile [External Link], it works great.

Quoting: x4merGlorious Eggroll version of Proton since V6.16(?), already has AMD FSR routines patch for fshack. NVidia now trying to get their routines in to main Proton instead of the AMD ones people have already been using for months via GE.

There was an attempt to add FSR to Proton, it was rejected: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/pull/116 [External Link]

I don't know, I tried KDE many times in the recent years and did just recently again. It feels so amateurish at so many Levels, compared to Cinnamon what I use, that I couldn't even use it for a single day without having to tinker at so many things, that I gave up.

Quoting: minfaer- Gamescope - even if you run it in an X session, it is a wayland compositor

Gamescope does not need GBM and could have worked since 470, but Nvidia driver still needs support for VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier, which is not Wayland or GBM specific.

Quoting: PJshame nvidia still hasn't made their gpus work with Wayland :/ . This annoys me every time. I wonder when this drivers related clutch will come to an end.

That's not correct, Nvidia GPUs work with Wayland, this is about xWayland.
