I wonder if fixing the networking issues is the foundation for an attempt at building in EAC support to a future Proton? I also wonder if there were further FAudio fixes in there from Ethan Lee - he hasn't tweeted anything on the subject recently, but I'll keep an eye out.
The only thing missing in Deep Rock Galactic now is voice support. Not that anyone actually uses it anyway, but it would be nice to have a perfect experience...

I'm a bit confused - I went to buy this, but it's already in my library?! I honestly don't remember being that drunk recently...

The only Rally game I ever really enjoyed is this one:

Everything after that just became too real, too twitchy, less fun. Or I did. One of the two.

Love the look of this, even though I was never a Myst fan. I played a fair bit of Quern, which some of this reminds me of, but this looks like it'll have a far stronger story and the voice acting sounds top notch! Who are the voice actors, do you know? The main character reminds me of someone. Originally thought it was a melancholy Cave Johnson from Portal 2 (the awesome JK Simmons), but later lines gave me a different vibe, but still familiar.
Damn. Now I want to replay Portal 2...

I still haven't given this a go. Really need to get some time set aside for giving it a shot. I'ts a weird thing that since I associated it with CS:GO and since I'm so utterly tried of my months and years playing CS1.6, I just find myself... not caring. Despite how fun it looks.
DXVK 1.2.1 really does improve Overwatch quite a lot on Linux with NVIDIA

I need to get back into some Overwatch soon. Me and @Buenaventura played pretty regularly for a few months, him on tank, me on support. It worked really well, and I enjoyed playing in a mostly winning team. But playing "solo" on QuickPlay can get old pretty quickly, when team composition falls apart and I'm the only healer on a side with 5 DPS. When that happens, I usually just take my own DPS to make a point..
Great game though and, combined with Lutris, an experience that feels genuinely native.

Tank Maniacs looks like some seriously good local multiplayer fun, coming to Linux soon

Looks like Worms... in real time. Could be a lot of fun for a sofa set up!
Oxygen Not Included release delayed until July, Klei making sure it's nicely polished

Yeah, I had a similar probably with CO2 - tons of oxygen kicking around, but if you let that CO2 build up, the lower portion of your base becomes uninhabitable! Hopefully it's easier to cool water in the final game too - heat exchangers were woefully inadequate when I used them last time I played, about a year ago.
Love it though. It's got charm, complexity, wonderful learning curve and loads of polish.

I've been on the edge of buying Mechanicus for about 3 months at least! If it weren't for Path of Exile working perfectly in Steam Play (and being completely free), I'd probably already have pulled the trigger! :)
And now I have to decide whether it's going to be Mechanicus, or Rage 2. Probably Mechanicus because it's a) native and b) cheaper!

SteamOS had another beta update recently, new Steam Play Proton version 4.2-4 is out

Denuvo is still present on Nier:Automata and Monster Hunter World, which both run well (apparently) on Steam Play. Haven't tried them myself, as I won't touch any title that uses this DRM. I bought Dishonored 2 the moment they removed it. Mutant Year Zero was another great title that dropped Denuvo.
