Bought the game. Runs okaish. Combat is fun and all but it kinda lacks depth... It could ofc open up later in the game, but first 30 minutes its kinda same enemies, dash, block, hit, fireball...
Still i mean its just 7€ and the mechanics that are in the game work very well. Just don't expect super in-depth game.
Great to see native linux ports of games!

Native runs very well so far.. Its been long time since i played it last time, but damn those zone loadings are now like 1-2 sec. I remember back in the days zoning was long long wait :)

Quoting: ToploaderNative has better performance by quite a margin, so native is the way to go. We're finally rewarded for supporting Linux all these years later :grin: (it was never a profitable thing in the past, just more a passion project to keep our games native Linux). The only exception to that is if you're playing on a windows desktop too and want cross save support. We do plan on fixing it in the future so Windows and Linux support cross cloud save on Steam.Thank you for making this game :)

Driver seems to work without issues. Didn't run into any of the bugs that are reported fixed though. Can't see the change in the nvidia-settings icons also but i guess thats my icon theme taking over maybe
not sure what this is all about though? some security thing?

Hmm, interesting. Hugepages got me curious, if that could be helpful on desktop linux also.
Theres loads of documentation about it on the kernel pages. Wonder if this tool can be installed on regular desktop Linux also?

Direct3D to Vulkan translator DXVK 2.1 adds HDR support, improves shader stutter issue

Whatever the outcome. He doesn't want to deal with scripts and its feature requests. He is a graphics developer, so its understandable that he wanted to drop it.

Quoting: andy155You can disagree if you want, but things like these are for package managers to deal with imo.Quoting: XpanderIt doesn't really have to be part of DXVK anyway imo.I disagree.

Quoting: andy155Note: The setup script setup_dxvk.sh was no longer deemed useful and got removed.He doesn't want to deal with it. Its linux. Fork it or create your own script to hook it up. It doesn't really have to be part of DXVK anyway imo.
Bad idea and a step backwards. ;(((
