Valve is making a huge mistake though trusting game developers/publishers to just enable anticheat for Proton on their games. I still think hardly any of them will bother. Does not matter how easy Valve makes it.

Quoting: GuestWhy? This makes no sense. If that is the expectation they are setting for your users then yes, but if they are telling people that "these 80% verified green tick games work" then you should not expect to run the other 20% and then complain about it.Quoting: LinasThis isn't the same as PS Vs Xbox exclusives. If you buy a Steam based console you expect to be able to play everything in your Steam libraryQuoting: rustybroomhandle76%? Not good enough, it must be 100% or Linux fails! FAILS!I see Linux as equivalent of console gaming. If you buy a PlayStation, you do not expect to be able to run XBox games. In the same way I fully realize that when running Linux I will not be able to play all Windows games, and that is fine.
The latest Call of Warfare does not run on Linux? Well, I am an adult with a full-time job, and a several hundred games backlog on Steam. By the time I will have time to even consider playing it, Call of Warfare 4 will be out, and I will still have hundreds of other games to choose from.

Sorry, my sarcasm gland is throbbing something fierce over here.
Between a certain video series and a well known Linux Youtuber telling people not to game on Linux I am a little grumpy. I understand criticisms, but I prefer a "here's what you must know" format to a "don't do it unless you are weird" type attitude, especially when they set unrealistically high bars*
* unrealistically high if you are high jumping, or unrealistically low if you are limbo dancing

Reminder. People don't all enjoy the same things. That'd be a boring-ass world to live in. And just because someone enjoys something you don't "get" does not mean there's something wrong with them.

Quoting: slapinbtw I wonder why people either love Death Stranding to the fulest or hate it wholeheartedly, but no "completed game, cool but nothing special" people, where are you?This is how you know it's art. It knows what it is and goes for it hard. There was no focus group involved that tried to figure out how to make it appeal to as many people as possible.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80You don't do any couriering in New Vegas. It's all standard RPG/shooter stuff. Anyway, all games are not for everyone.Quoting: rustybroomhandleYes but youre a courier in New Vegas the difference is that game is interesting.Quoting: Whitewolfe80For me I refunded this it's DHL the simulator your a courier in a fucked Kojima world. It's basically a real life job as you amble from place to place in real time. I got so bored I actually complied a kernel on laptop to pass the time. But am not the biggest fan of kojima workInteresting. You could not have seen much of the game in the <2 hours you must have played. And about the game being a courier game where you walk a lot - you would have known this already before purchasing.

Yep yep. Definitely one of my favourite games of the past year. I am on my third playthrough now. My second playthrough I actually did a "no vehicles" run. So no bikes and trucks. Still used the floating carriers though. Playing it that way was way more zen for me. Third play I have been using vehicles, but am thinking of again skipping em.

Just note that if you are on Nvidia, don't go rushing out to buy Forza Horizon 5. You'd be in for a very frustrating time. Crashes frequently, and I'm not talking about the cars.
