I hope Valve are watching closely with Microsoft working towards an Xbox Handheld

I would really be surprised if they actually made windows usable for sane people on a handheld.
On the other hand, we know inertia and Microsoft is everything but a stranger to shady and despicable business practices - so i really do hope that you are just alarmist and not prophetic... :neutral:

Humble Choice for March 2025 has Pacific Drive

It's a real bummer they again include origin-bullshit keys -.-
Especially since ZAU doesn't even require the EA-App abomination on Steam...

Last month i skipped because of that - this month, i'm really on the verge, both pacific drive and homeworld 3 are really tempting...

Blocking Linux / Steam Deck in Apex Legends led to a 'meaningful reduction' in cheaters

Yeah great - unmarked axies and two factors smashed into one conclusion.
And even if we let that "questionable" conclusion slide, blocking Linux is still just a very poor excuse for "we're too cheap for proper server side anticheat"...

Linux 'fascinates and terrifies' the dev of DEAD LETTER DEPT. but they're supporting it anyway

For this alone i'll consider buying it xD

Mecha Comet looks like a fun little modular Linux handheld

As with the Pilet - i somehow really want one, but i just can't justify it/imagine enough stuff to do with it to justify the purchase :neutral:

Quoting: mihaibthe grinding is a bit harsh
I mean, at least it's not pay2win. So i always try to remind myself, that i don't play the game for the sake of unlocking the tech tree, but because the matches are fun. That way, the grind that sets in beyond T3 isn't really too much of an issue imho...

Valve may be working on a new kind of Steam Machine

We'll see what comes out of it. Besides the end of Win 10 support, HL3 as a Linux-Exclusive would surely boost sales as well *hint hint* ;)

Modding support returns to Dome Keeper in the latest update

Still one of the best games of all times imho. Really looking forward to multiplayer ^^
For mods, i must admit that i'm yet to find any really groundbreaking ones. But maybe now's the time to give them another look ^^

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered now Steam Deck Verified

Quoting: ZlopezPSN account should be optional in this case. Especially if this is single-player only game.
Not should - has to. There is just plain and simple no even remotely valid excuse for forcing any account bullshit on a singleplayer game.

Get a fresh look at Half-Life 2 RTX in a new video plus the Steam page is now live

Quoting: scaineLooks lovely! Still wouldn't buy an Nvidia card! :grin:
And wouldn't create an account on one of these cesspool-plattforms for the chance to win one either ;)

The "Remake" looks nice for sure - but 95% of the improvement is either in the assets/textures or could have been done almost as good with non-pathtraced lightning (but 3 times the FPS instead ;) ).
