“The full single-player campaign must be playable offline..”

That there just became a huge marketing line with the current Stop Killing Games thing. They would be crazy to change their stance on that now.

So Nvidia GeForce Now will get native Linux,
GOG will get native Linux hopefully with Proton support.

Steam still has the majority of games playable on Linux

And if you want anything else there is always Etch.io or any emulator you want to install.

Plus GOG would be crazy not to include native support for the Steam Controller 2, if they want to get on to the Steam Machine.

Crazy times for Linux

If you haven’t played any of the Kindom series yet I challenge you to play Kindom: Two Crowns for 30 minutes without getting addicted. Definitely pulls you in more than it should. :)

Meanwhile the Epic storefront / launcher has not improved its responsiveness since launch.
This has to be one of the reasons to run a launcher like Heroic. Because Heroic actually cares about user experience.

A fix for Windows 7?

Timing is everything. Too bad for those Windows users not being given preferential treatment.

Steam Input no longer works on Wayland.

Meaning it will not be exclusive to XBox. So what encouragement are Microsoft giving to buy an XBox handheld?

Or have they already accepted defeat?

Hoping to see Google chrome release with chroma toggle for any webpage soon.

Has to do a better job than any chrome extension I have seen that ask a monthly subscription for something that does half the job.

Quoting: rainbowtvz

Quoting: Craggles086No question, will buy.

My two Steam Controller 1’s getting a bit old.

Hoping some of the games that dropped Steam Controller support after Valve said the first one was on its last day’s bring it back.

While Steam Input is handy mapping things to the thumb pad. Gets so tedious doing it for every single game.

lucky you, having two. i had one, it was my best controller. my dad broke the usb in half transporting my tower while evacuating for a huge fire. and i couldn't just get a new one since they stopped making them....
in hindsight i shouldnt have left it plugged in but i also didn't expect him to set heavy shit on top of my tower haha.

I did a panic and bought a second one just before they pulled it from sale. :)

You can probably pick one up on eBay / Amazon in reasonable nick, but you could be paying more then Steam Controller 2 retail price will be.

So Wayfire is basically Compiz for Wayland yes?

Should add a lot to the default Xfce.

https://wayfire.org/2019/01/13/Introduction-to-Wayfire.html [External Link]

*edit*

Although reading this it looks like it will be bigger then just Compiz on Wayland

“Here’s the place where Wayfire fits in: it aims to be a base on which a lightweight wayland DEs can be built. By being split into plugins (which mostly control the appearance/window-management part) and core (providing rendering, workspaces, etc) Wayfire makes it possible to build a DE with minimal effort. Since the beginning of the project, Wayfire’s goals have also expanded to provide a rather minimalistic (but functional!) desktop environment.”

“Wayfire is heavily inspired by the Compiz window manager, and one of the implicit goals is to make your desktop look as nice as possible. So, Wayfire supports a lot of eye-candy: Cube, Expo, Wobbly windows, Animations(Burn, Zoom, Fade), 3D window switcher and more. See the demo videos if you haven’t!”
