Valve clarifies how they test Native Linux or Proton for Steam Deck

Quoting: alejandro-bringasI hope that at some point they will remove the "launchers" from Feral games, such as Rise of TR or dirt games, where it can become annoying.
IIRC, Feral games shouldn't show the launcher when run under big picture mode in Steam. I hope the Deck UI hasn't broken the mechanism for detecting that.

I also hope that Valve haven't chosen to override Feral's ports where there's no good reason to do so. I can understand it where cross platform multiplayer doesn't work, but given that I've already heard of several cases where perfectly good native ports have been overridden to Proton without good reason, I don't have much hope.

The complete season of Life is Strange 2 is now available on Linux

Quoting: RussianNeuroMancerCool, but how to import Captain Spirit save game from Proton to Linux version of the Life is Strange 2?
I think it might work if you copy the "Dontnod/<steam ID>/CaptainSpirit" folder out of wherever Proton's AppData folder is, and put it as "~/.local/share/feral-interactive/Life is Strange 2/SaveData/Dontnod/<steam ID>/CaptainSpirit". That was never tested though as far as I know, so I don't know for sure whether it does work, or whether it might break anything.

Quoting: haikuThis port is useless, it arrived way to late and the game is running fine via Proton :|
Late? The final episode was only released 2 weeks ago.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition released with Linux support
7 Nov 2019 at 7:34 am UTC

Quoting: peta77So it downloaded for me and I can play it, but the extra content is missing. In the store it says I own the definitive edition, but doesn't mark the DLCs as owned and also doesn't download them.... Hope this gets fixed soon.. At least meanwhile I can play the main story. With all options and VSync enabled I'm getting a solid 60fps @ 4K :)
Send an email to [email protected] so they can look into it.

The Linux port of Shadow of Mordor from Feral Interactive has gained a Vulkan Beta, a massive difference

Quoting: GuestI really appreciate Feral's work to provide Vulkan support now for Shadow of Mordor! Besides some graphical glitches (character models) it runs great with RADV and ACO from Mesa-git. I'm sure this will be sorted soon.
This should fix the character issues: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/merge_requests/2372 [External Link]

The AO change is described as lower quality in the article but in practice running it at half res makes virtually no noticeable difference to the quality.

Quoting: MasterSleortWonder if Feral will make use of stream-output / transform feedback on Vulkan?
Never needed it.

Quoting: tonRHitman 1 is great game even do in my computer, the graphics looks like this.....
Going by your PC info, you have a AMD GCN 1.0 GPU, in which case this should have been fixed by the game update last week. Do you still see it on the latest version?

Life is Strange: Before the Storm finally arrives for Linux on September 13th, NVIDIA and AMD supported

Quoting: BrissePretty sure that's why it was delayed. They were probably planning to use Vulkan at first but ran into problems becouse the game requires stream output support which cannot be implemented properly on Vulkan yet.
Not every game requires stream output.
