OpenRazer v3.9 released with many new Razer devices supported on Linux
12 Oct 2024 at 11:36 am UTC

I replaced my Logitech MX Master 2 with a Razer Basilisk v3 pro.
Polychromatic is pretty good, but after less than 2 years, sometimes the mouse just enter an infinite loop of start/stop. This is pretty annoying and usually requires powering it off and on a few times.

So after a few years and considering I paid a staggering 180€ for a mouse, I'm in doubt about Razer QA.. :|

Paradox are bundling four DLCs into Europa Universalis IV free for all players

Quoting: Mountain ManParadox used to be one of my favorite developers, but the huge number of DLCs for each game is just too hard to keep up with, and even just a few "essential" expansions can easily double the original purchase price of a game.
I never quite get the problem some have with Paradox DLCs.
It would be a problem if the base game was incomplete, but it's clearly not.
You have no obligation to buy any DLC to enjoy the game.
On the contrary, if I love a game, I'm very, very happy with a dev continuously developing new stuff for said game. (Think Vampire Survivors ; I'm sure y'all bought all the DLCs, without any complains!)

So, thanks Paradox for providing such on-going support for your games.

Buy rude games on Steam without fear - Valve rolls out enhanced privacy

Quoting: 14
Quoting: FIGBirdNow if only there was an online without broadcasting the game I play status. Someday I might get that, someday.
This already exists within privacy settings under your profile, however there is no granularity at all. Your friends can either see what you're playing or nothing that you're playing. Same goes for game inventory and purchase activity.
I've asked the Steam support for this feature years ago. They said no.
You should be able to give different visibility to different 'friend'.

My close family can see when I game.
My work-friends shouldn't.

Such a simple but useful privacy feature..

Ubisoft fixed The Division 2 on Steam Deck and Linux desktop

Do you know if there is any way to 'transfer' your uplay games to Steam (games you got when buying an AMD card for instance, but never played since uplay sucks)?

Well, still lacking basic features and not as good as the TypeMatrix [External Link]...pass.

Fun games for Steam Deck that won't break the bank

Olliolli World [External Link] is 'gnarly' on the Deck ;)
Nomad survival [External Link] too, and the recent Cult of the lamb [External Link] is awesome, on deck and on desktop :D

Spellbook Demonslayers is the most insane Vampire Survivors-like yet

Quoting: slaapliedjeI have not played Vampire Survivors, but I think it looks like Crimson Lands, which is certainly fun (pretty sure that is the name of that game).
Crimsonland [External Link] from 10tons was very cool more than a decade ago...and still is !
Although in Crimsonland you aim, you fire, and can only carry one weapon at a time
