Quoting: TurkeysteaksVery disappointed with this to be honest. Payday 2 was one of the first games I was amazed to have linux support, I played it so much at that point.

I understand their reasoning, though in my opinion it doesn't bode well for Payday 3.

Let's be honest Linux native games outside of indie games are dead it's going to be proton or you don't get to play from now on. Thankfully the steam deck success could change that but as long as valve are fitting the bill for dxvk vulkan and proton. Native triple a games are a thing of the past. Now that feral are dead on Linux

Quoting: GuestFound the review! https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-radeon-rx-7600/33.html [External Link]
Top notch quality review AFAIK.

Quoting: Whitewolfe806600 non xt pretty much matches it but is cheaper

unfortunately there's no comparison to 6600 non XT, care to elaborate with data? I'm interested.

And it actually has rather good power consumption.

Watch gamers nexus review benchmarks or tech yes.city review if you want more gameplay Vs graphs

Quoting: TcheyMy issue with these games is, i find it fun to play with total strangers randomly logged in, and at the same time i really hate playing with people yelling in the mics, panicking, swearing etc. I’ve always been a very calm and quite player, never yell or stress or throw my mouse over the desk or anything like that. For years i was still typing on keyboard, players muted, while "everyone else" was already on mics...

Not alone I play perma muted

Quoting: Teodosio1) This is why we should always ask for Native releases; Proton is just a fallback, marginally better than post-development ports;
2) Keep in mind that Steam provides a "Review" feature.

Well that just means no games then as native games are not coming anytime soon at least from triple a studios

Quoting: ArehandoroI honestly don't know how do companies test their games to release them in a mess like this. I guess it's our own responsiblity too for having short term memory and allow it.

They don't they must their customers do it far cheaper

Really despise the whole fuck it we will patch it to playable at some point. Just because they can attitude can't blame game Devs for that. That smacks of publisher saying I have sales targets to meet push it out the door and patch it. Some advantages of the pre wide spread broadband days they had to have it be playable out the door. Well maybe except Troika who went bust when vampire bloodlines came out literally two days after the game was on store selves bought it and played it's emense jank long before the fan patches that make it work were around.

Quoting: InhaleOblivionSo clearly people forgot the days when the vast majority of currently released games didn't work on Linux. I'm old enough to remember when Nvidia was considered evil by Linus himself LOL. Which was the GPU I had at the beginning of my Linux journey. Thanks to development of WINE/Proton Steam, programs like Lutris, Bottles, ProtonUp, and ultimately Valve and the Linux foundation, do we have the options today that allow us to plug and play most titles. I maintain 2 builds ironically to not throw out old hardware. Nice to see so many gamers don't care about ewaste.

My sons get the secondary Windows 10 build. I only use it to test upcoming releases. Though I started them out on the Raspberry PI 3 and 4 to learn the basics of computing and Linux. I also have alpha and beta tested some of your favorite games prior to release over the years. Which sadly is all done almost 100% on Windows. If we're being honest about that fact. Especially multiplayer online only games, like MMOs. Never been a fan of dual booting due to various issues, and bugs.

The Steam Deck(which I also game on)itself has helped Linux organically grow in gaming circles, but only because Linux doesn't get in the way with the gaming part. Proton has reached a critical mass where the vast majority of games work out of the box. Anti-cheats collectively finally have support(not all). My daily driver is desktop Linux, but I'd have to forgo testing your next upcoming game if I went 100% with Linux regarding all things gaming. To be fair it's not like the devs listen to many of us anymore. Though I'll gladly still take their money, and free games LOL. Your mileage may vary.

Never forgot the days when wolf enemy territory was the best you could get on Linux and frozen bubble was legit my most played game on Linux. I do remember when wine and wine bottles was maybe it will work maybe it won't. So yes proton and vulkan basically means if it came out in the last five years there's a strong chance it will work if it's older or dx9 title it will probably work better on Linux than windows. We know the reality we are too small a market to get native games. Proton basically means ports from feral are gone BC what's the point in financial terms you have to pay for that, under valves proton it's a free extra revenue stream with no cost

Haven't touched windows since Windows 7 died and haven't looked back. If I can't play it I ll wait for it to be patched or ge version of proton which will probably make it playable. My need to game day one has long been thing of the past
