Hogwarts Legacy to be Steam Deck Verified at launch

Quoting: Guestlook your comment seems very reasonable and logic, but lets call things how they are. Within the "cancel culture" there is ppl actively calling out to burn books or precious works of art. That's why I said I had split opinions about this because I don't like radical approaches in neither ends. This problem should be handled other way like having proper anti discrimination laws, JK Rowling should not be allowed to say such things. She should be fined. Her books are not the issue. It's a "free peach" issue, free speech is not about targeting and promoting hatred against minorities, here she crossed a line. She should be fined and legally muzzled.
What the hell, man.. Honestly. Is JKR really that "evil" for SAYING something? You think she deliberately has been trying to hurt someone?

The final free game during the GOG Winter Sale is Daymare: 1998

Quoting: GuestGOG has Linux games, just not a Linux client. And the vast majority of Steam games rely on Proton (Valve's Wine fork) to run, so I don't understand what you're complaining about.
You're like purposefully understanding wrong... Just get your free games aight pal LOL

Would even buy games from GOG but as long as there's no official Linux client, guess what GOG? All da monis go to Steam and Valve.

Valve puts up Proton Next (7.0-5) to provide easier testing of future upgrades

So, another more to go through for a particular game. I have noticed that randomly quite any Proton version can work with an older title.

Why can't there be some sort of sniffing mechanism put to place? When you play some of them classic titles, i always have to try all versions starting from top to down.

4.11-13 is the most common for LucasArts titles. It would be assumable that classic titles would work even better with new releases, but they won't even launch!

Maybe these old packs could be just merged to one big "Proton Legacy" or something, never mind the package size if all needed is there and that ritual of going thru all versions is removed...

If my memory serves correct, this game was some time ago utilized even as eSport title. Something else than just running and shooting for a change.

The ACTUAL link is in there, in quotes with the full title of the post. I really don’t see how that’s hard to see.
I really didn't either. Did you know that some ppl are challenged with eye sight. This is not about how you can't see how it can be hard to see!

There's still not a Snap or a Flatpak for this. AppImages are against me for some reason they don't usually run and i don't want to tinker at all.
