Super Video Golf -33% £5.69. A veritable bargain. Linux native and the dev runs it on the Steam Deck himself. Brilliant game.

I'm hanging back for F3:NV. Whilst I had fun modding F3 (Steam, then transferred to GOG), I don't have the energy or time to do it all from scratch again!

How does this perform through Proton? I have an RX 6600 and I'm not one who's bothered about playing on "ultra" (obviously! :wink:).

I rarely buy Proton only games but this one looks right up my street and hard to pass up.

Great article title :grin: and very interesting!

Ballionaire is annoyingly good and I want to play it all the time

How odd to remove Linux from the OS list. I loved the demo, best score of $20,345,522.

Will probably pick this up soon (provided Linux native survives).

Quoting: Eike....I cannot find a demo?
Apologies for the late reply. It's a shame you don't have access to the demo :( it's just been updated as well, I've just heard.

This is a fantastic game, I've now put in 220+ hours and having a ball (Linux native).

Please note the demo is quite a way behind the game proper, which gets constant updates as it's still in development. Also note the story line is unfinished (half way?) but personally I play the game for the survival aspect and base building and not the story :grin:

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl review - works on Linux Desktop with Proton but poorly on Steam Deck

As per previous comments, I'll be waiting a while on this until after a lot of bug hunting. Loved the previous games and this looks great fun.

Plus I only have an RX 6600 (for now), the poor little thing might burst a blood vessel trying to run this.

Also, excellent review :)

Quoting: tuubi
Quoting: nnohonsjnhtsylaySadly its written in rust so it takes forever to compile on my computer, even with my cpu with 24 threads
Took less than a minute for me on my eight cores. I suppose that's pretty long but not quite forever.
Just for reference, it took 3 minutes 41 seconds to build on my 5950X (16 core).
