Quoting: BloodScourgeWell then, it's a hard pass for me

It might change after the surprised developer has been told that there are Linux users on desktop system that have bought the game.

Quoting: eggroleNot really relevant except that it is nice to see "big" games breaking away from the Unreal/Unity duopoly.

Just to prevent confusion: The first StS does not use Unreal or Unity3D – it uses a framework written in Java.

According to posts on the Steam forum, the fact that the Linux support icon was removed, should tell everyone that the native build is only supposed to be used on SteamDeck and not on desktop. Or something like that.

Alt+Enter should still toggle fullscreen/window mode although the option was removed from the menu for use on the SteamDeck.

Why do they claim that they did not request a takedown of the itch.io domain, when that is exactly what happened as a result of their requests?

So “we're too lazy to sanitize our inputs” is supposed to be a good thing? And we were worried about DDOS attacks…

I'm not sure about Airships: Lost Flotilla demo – the movement is so sluggish even on the first ship. The second one is obviously meant to be worse.

Unfortunately Star Survivor has been partly broken for a few months – ever since the big 1.0 release – meteors do not split anymore, the new weapons seem to be only partially implemented featuring placeholder names, and according to several threads on the forum there are other serious issues. Very sad, I used to enjoy that one a lot last year, although the game was (and apparently still is) plagued a bad memory leak.

Then I played a Norse themed one that currently has a second playtest going. That one seems promising, but I can't remember the name. Okay, I found it again after looking through the page for several minutes: Asgard's Fall

Quoting: KlaasI'm still stuck with the SteamDeck's internal controls getting broken until a complete reboot every time I run anything wine related. (…)

Current Main channel OS version fixes the issue.

I'm still stuck with the SteamDeck's internal controls getting broken until a complete reboot every time I run anything wine related. I tried switching to the alternate boot image, switching the client/system channels, manually replacing wine, disconnecting the dock and probably more things that I cannot remember at the moment. Nothing helps. Even running winecfg in desktop mode is enough to break everything. I guess the rule never touch a running system should be the modus operandi. The November update has brought so much trouble…

Quoting: blindcoderWill NOT activate in Germany :-(

Was about to write the same thing.

This is the first time I see that on Fanatical, but people from other countries have reported that they were excluded from free games several times before.

There hasn't been anything that has tempted me into buying, but I'm still busy with Steamworld Quest which I bought on GOG a few weeks ago.

Do I need Brotato if I'm still not done with Vampire Survivors and Halls of Torment?

Quoting: MohandevirLego Pirates of the Caribbean

Nice game, but there are a few locations that are quite crashy. I've played it last year (?) for the first time.

Quoting: MohandevirWolfenstein Youngblood

I don't have that one, but it has quite a reputation for being very janky.
