Well, i know which company would be out of the picture if i ever have anything to say in any software development ^^
The official statement is obviously just a PR-Stunt to minimize the shitstorm...
The question others asked - what this offers over mumble - is a good one though

You can now easily run the Epic Store on Linux with Lutris, Epic suggests applying for a grant

Cudos to the Lutirs-Team and GL in grabbing all the money they can from Epic.
But i deeply hope, that no one will consider supporting this company/store, that is trying to establish forced exclusives in the PC market and make everything worse for the customers...

Would be nice if this lead to disabling the annoying geoblock for us germans (not regarding price but censorship)

I really don't get why not more people are buying there. Especially when most of the games include a steam-key, so missing features of the client don't really count...i ALWAYS look if a game is availiabe on itch...
The open source game manager Lutris had another sweet update recently

For the rest of Lutris, you are absolutely right, it really set a new level of convenience to using wine.
Installed WoW again for the free Weekend - and it now really is less of a hazzle than on windows, as you don't have to go to the website anymore to download the client xD

Quoting: legluondunetFor Gog users, Lutris is now the "Gog Galaxy" client for Linux, just click install, for a Windows or Linux native game, and play. Lutris scripts system are very powerful to do more than just install a game: you can even install patch, write config file, download and install third party components, activate DXVK or override DLL... A must to have for Linux gamers.i Like the Idea of it, but if i Import one of my GoG-Games, nothing happens...or am i missing something? ^^

Deep Rock Galactic, a 1-4 player co-op FPS with a destructible environment works great in Steam Play

I really don't get why they don't just make proton support official if it already runs perfectly...valve even covers the support, so the only thing they have to do is make sure patches don't break proton and collect my money...
Really enjoyed it on the free weekend and would instantly buy it - but not if it can stop working anytime due to not being offical...

Apparently Valve are working with Easy Anti-Cheat to get support in Steam Play (updated: yup)

But let's hope their neglect of linux is just shortsighted and lazy instead of ill-minded

Quoting: LinuxwarperI think Epic holding Valve back would be bad pr for them. They are already disliked for their anti consumer practices. If they work against Valve they will, hopefully, get much more backlash from PC community.it's not like EPIC cared to much about PR in the past weeks/months ;)
Valve could, and rightfully so, rub salt into wound that is Epic Store by pointing out how the company has ported Fortnite for so many platforms but neglected Linux, and now they are even stopping progress to make games available for the platform.
It would be disgusting if that actually happens.

Quoting: ArehandoroIt was playable for a while, but in the beginning you had to copy over a installation from windows because the installer didn't work with wine, then there was a regression in 3.20 (so installting on >3.20, playing with <3.20 for the FPS), but now all came together thanks to the work of some really smart people :DQuoting: TermyWith this Star Citizen can be installed and played with vanilla wine and has really decent FPS with DXVK - who had thought something like that would happen just a few years ago ^^I can finally play it!? Woohoo!
