Valve have pushed out another Steam Play update with the 3.16-4 beta including corefonts support

Quoting: YoRHa-2BIn case of UE4, you might partially blame Nvidia because they are Epic's tech partner, but ultimately this issue wouldn't exist if developers didn't make poor assumptions and used error handling instead.

Same goes for AGS.
Is there a point to report this to Epic, or it's not something they'll care to fix?

I'm not sure what exactly you were trying to say but it sounds sort of like a dig on Nvidia yet you have an nvidia card?
Nvidia cards are reported as AMD cards now, so Nvidia usage will plummet in Steam stats. Thanks to Nvidia pushing their lock-in APIs.

GOG have released "Project Hospital": https://www.gog.com/news/release_project_hospital [External Link]

Multi-GPU support in common Vulkan drivers isn't even ready yet, or is it?
