Tiny Atolls is a comfy and relaxing minimalist city-builder

Anyway, the game ended up playing fine for the most part and I don't need 60fps for this.

Quoting: CatKillerAh, great. I miss graphics settings, lately I've been unable to properly play some games due to that.Quoting: DarkhoggThe Proton trick works but the game slows down considerably for me, so let's hope they fix it...From the bug report, it seems the shaders aren't being run (which is why those pixels are just FF00FF rather than whatever the shader is supposed to provide). When the bug is fixed you'll likely have the same performance natively as when you're running the game in Proton now, since your GPU will be running those shaders rather than skipping them.

Welp, can confirm that with my AMD GPU graphics are also a bit broken (Magenta patches on top of tiles).

I’m in shock at just how well Overwatch runs with the latest DXVK and Lutris

It's amazing, I bought it when Hammond was introduced (this summer, not sure when exactly) and I was still switching to Win to play. It mostly worked but I had a few issues with the installer and BattleNet. Now, it's been something like 2 months without even touching Windows. There are still a few issues, but I've been able to work around them:
- PulseAudio doesn't work, weirdly, except when I plug my recently bought headset. Then it works perfectly. If I don't, though, it tries to grab a stream and fails all the time. Completely stopping it and letting OW use ALSA works, though.
- LCONTROL is impossible to bind. Fixed by remapping the key to RCONTROL.
- Sometimes it stops registering a click-hold and I need to re-click with heroes like Brig, Mercy or Moira (possibly with others, but thouse are the "hold M1 to win" ones). I've gotten used to it so much I don't know if it still happens but it's a small thing.
The first two basically means that I need to have two scripts to launch it, but that's ok. Other than that it works amazingly well, I'm really impressed with DXVK. I haven't noticed the shader caching stutter with the last big path, either, so I'm glad that's fixed.

The Humble Down Under Bundle is a very good deal for Linux gamers

I've been setting the tip to 0 ever since they stopped requiring games to be multiplatform and DRM-free. That is, since the "Save THQ bundle".

I can tell you one thing: I have Steam auto-running on Linux all day. It's very rare for me to go to Windows *AND* open Steam. Yet, the one time I did so, a hardware survey windows popped up. COME ON!!!
