The only thing game recording has ever produced on my steam deck is a black screen. Oddly, it works fine from my desktop.

Ghostrunner 2 - They could have just packaged up everything after the tutorial and told me it was a sequel and I wouldn't have known the difference.

Quoting: TimeFreezeI will keep the Negative Review. No one can say that Sony wont try that again in the future.
Ditto. I was willing to forgive the rootkit gameguard stuff because eveyone had good things to say about them but after this, any credit I was willing to extend has been spent. I'll check back in a year or so and see if they've actually stuck to any of this or whether they've just decided to try and slip it by when the heat dies down.

The big hit medieval strategy game Manor Lords works well on Linux
30 Apr 2024 at 8:56 am UTC

It's a good game. A medieval dwarf fortress with less detail and better graphics. Not singularly great right now and not a whole lot that you can't get in other games but it could be more if the dev keeps going.

Just a note, as it stands right now if you play a game with a victory condition, once you win you can't continue in sandbox mode. You get the option but you basically "win" again, every day, complete with final screen and the game rapidly gets unplayable due to all the congratulations.

That's a nice games distribution platform you got there. Be a real shame if somethin' was to, you know, happen to it.

My account turned 20 today. I'm pretty sure I signed up to activate "Dark Messiah of Might & Magic".

Quoting: wvstolzingI wonder if I can I play as the blue colored bug people with antennae…

Or space hippies [External Link]. Surely, those must be among the 'minor nations' mentioned.
Gonna eat the fruit and throw away the rind!

I just want someone to get Pistil Whip working again...

Heroic Games Launcher gets a critical hotfix in 2.9.1
27 Jul 2023 at 3:17 pm UTC

This seems like a good place to ask. Has anyone had any luck getting Crimson Skies or Interstate '76 to run through Heroic? I've been trying for a while and I haven't had any success.
