I tried Stadia but Destiny 2 ran like crap for me. I never bothered to troubleshoot it. I wonder how many like me there were?

Picked it up again- really well-designed game! Gets pretty much everything right, except I accidentally kill my teammates too often :/

Erik Wolpaw to Valve on Portal 3 — 'we should just do it'

Quoting: CAVRI'm glad that Erik Wolpaw is excited to write for Portal again, but there's a lot of considerations that most people aren't thinking about, like: does he actually have a pitch for a new story? Does Valve have new mechanics to explore in a new game (a new story and levels aren't enough to sustain a new title)?
They should hire the guy that did Portal Reloaded. That game brought a whole new dimension (literally) to the franchise.

Quoting: GuestTo be honest I don't get the point of including Windows games that run via Proton
I can see a few sides to this debate. Personally, I think the more games that run on Linux, Proton or not, the more Linux gamers there will be, and the more worth it it will be for devs to support native Linux. A virtuous circle of sorts.

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun - Aiko's Choice is out now

Desperados III was a really good game, but Shadow Tactics had better atmosphere and story imo. I’ll be getting this one!

Quoting: BigJI was excited to try Stadia, but the latency of Destiny 2 was unacceptably shitty. I didn’t look into why this would be, but it was enough to turn me off the service for good.
Did you try any other games? I did have a couple of issues with a couple of games when it launched, my favourite being a 30s (yes, thirty second) response time in Serious Sam 3. It varied from game to game, and mostly fixed up before long. Never tried Destiny 2.
Thanks mirv, I'll give it another shot! I didn't try any other games at the time.
