Assassin's Creed Shadows out now - Steam Deck Verified but has NVIDIA problems on Desktop Linux

On Prince of Persia The Lost Crown I remember I used to open the game online and then shut down the WiFi while in-game. Would it work also with AC Shadows?

Quoting: ExplosiveDiarrheaDo you realize the game was originally released on pc more than a year ago, right?
No Steam release means no PC release :grin:

Seriously, by reading the reports at that time, just minor issues were reported on vkd3d-proton concerning Mirage. It was not the mess of a brand new architecture like at the time of Valhalla.

Bought immediately yesterday night (also because of the 50% discount). I have played the tutorial part and it looks alright. What surprised me the most was how all the things have progressed in the last 7 years:
  • Origins wasn't performing that great at launch.
  • Odyssey was alright but it had plenty of crashes and stuttering issues.
  • Valhalla was a DX12 only game and it came at that time that vkd3d-proton was under development and tuning, and there where some manual adjustements to do in order to make it work.
Now Mirage works out of the box. I can't say I'm not impressed about all the way we have been making so far.

Ghost of Tsushima single-player only on Steam Deck due to PlayStation Network features

Will this issue affect also multiplayer-only games such as Helldivers 2? Because Sony will definitely put the same PSN integration in previously released games. The recent stepping back will be just temporary, in a way to keep a low profile on it.
Manjaro 24.0 released with KDE Plasma 6, GNOME 46, Linux kernel 6.9

Love Gnome 46. I just hope the extensions I have been struggling to get working so far don't crash any longer.
Valve tweak 4K screen scaling on Linux, plus more Remote Play fixes

I put 1.2 scale factor (Wayland required afaik?) for my QHD/32" main monitor, and it looks relaxing.
Remote Play broken on Steam Deck with the February stable update

Quoting: automatticLag is worse, jitters and blocky pixelation. No issues at all with sunshine/ moonlight on the same devices.
Thank you for sharing. This was exactly my same experience. That's why I switched to Sunshine/Moonlight.
Yuzu agrees to pay Nintendo $2.4 million and will entirely shut down (Citra for 3DS too)

As I wrote somewhere else, N- was fully aware that all their accusations (Yuzu community being responsible about spreading piracy, Yuzu allowing TotK to work and get leaked before release, etc.) are all bogus. Their plan has been to shut down Yuzu by buying time in the trial procedures, and therefore drowning them in legal fees they can no longer afford.

I rarely used it. Can it work as well as Sunshine does (i.e. with hardware encoding too)?
