I wish shops would default to listing their wares as opposed to showing a picture of the game front sleeve. I can't make out a good number of stuff that's on sale because the name of the game in the picture is too obscure. Like [here](https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/build-your-own-capcom-all-stars-bundle), the first game is called "VILLAGE"; there's one a couple of rows below that's just some scribbles; Mega Man is too small, and I've no idea what that Phoenix Wright game picture says.

Don't make me have to discover what you're trying to sell!

There's something off about the "control both sides" thing. I mean, it seems like one side IS yours, and you're trying to defeat and in some cases capture the bugs on the other side. So I mean, if you get to decide how they play, it's like, you get to make them sabotage themselves . . . it doesn't seem fair.

Update: My Steam Deck OLED did work, while I was able to get the Demo working on my laptop once I used Proton CachyOS and the latest update to the game demo, which appears to have been released in the last 12 hours. No other arguments were needed. It does seem to be a PC port locked at 144 fps and my PC could easily go past this with everything maxed out (it has an RTX 5090 laptop GPU after all).

I hope this kernel level anticheat stuff goes away overtime and we get something that uses LLMs instead, which can be done mostly server-side too.

My Bigscreen Beyond 1 finally started working last week running Linux after 2 years of waiting for NVidia to fix it (in 580 driver).

Something else will probably break when I'm going to try VR again this weekend, I think Smooth Motion is not supported, so probably it will still be a terrible experience. Did see other people complain on Nvidia forums about frame drops with NVidia + Linux + VR.

This is a new cool feature making many new titles eligible for playing in GFN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhR52Nwuc7k

Unfortunately still no PUBG...

although it's clearly still a work in progress with game support being limited as some don't work at all yet

It is very much a work in progress, since on my Bazzite machine, it requires command line arguments to work properly, and even then, it only seems to work with 2 games (Half Life: Alyx and Propogation VR). Everything just crashes.

Big respect to the developers for keeping up Linux and SteamOS compatibility which is rare to see with competitive shooters.

There's plenty more games in the Sea of Gabe.

This is great news! Going to have to wait for Fedora to update Mesa to 25.2.1, I suspect that will arrive in Fedora 43 later this year.

After I disabled wlx-overlay in the autostart options of Steam VR, games started to work via Steam Link VR.
Just now I can only play like one game, after quitting the game, either Steam VR, Steam or something else locks up
Yet, it's so cool to see this progressing and starting to work.

Summoning a character to fight for you has been a game mechanic for decades with countless examples of prior art. There is no way Nintendo should have been granted this patent. It's absurd.

I've been a Nintendo fanboy for many years, but some of their recent actions make it very hard to like them. I miss the days when we had the dynamic trio of Iwata, Miyamato, and Reggie

I wish we could get the video through USB C support as well for the headset

As someone with fond memories of PSX snowboarding games, HyperYuki seems like it could be interesting.

Oh HELL yeah! ALVR is pretty good too though, but would be nice to have native support from Steam :).

The subtext here is the second-order effects of Nvidia's insistence on being different and dealing only in proprietary drivers.

I cannot get it working. I tried several different versions on my laptop with an RTX 5090 GPU and the game screen was white and never loaded the game.

I tried several different Proton versions with no luck, but before I could try my Steam Deck OLED, I hit the "5 machine per day" Denuvo limit, and was locked out for 24 hours. On a free demo. What the heck!?

Here are the versions of Proton I tried without success:

• Proton CachyOS


• GE-Proton 10-15


• Proton Experimental


• Proton Hotfix


• GE-Proton 9-27

Then of course it locked me out.

@Renzatic - thank you, but yes I agree with you. I think I'll just go back and replay sotn instead, lol.

So cool to see Steam Link VR finally coming. It was shortly in the beta client but got removed again in may: https://nitter.poast.org/SadlyItsBradley/status/1918820041312678099

It's very much in beta though. Yesterday the Quest App was completely unresponsive to any input, no matter if I purged and re-installed it. Today (I changed nothing, except sleeping) it just worked to pair my Ubuntu 24.04 VR notebook. Needs mesa 25.2.1 and/or nVidia 575.64.5. Though it does show the "empty room" (Steam VR home is disabled) and the Steam VR dashboard, no game really worked for me. After a game started, I might see its splash screen, but as soon as the game should render I'm in a black void. Opening the Steam VR dashboad does show the game too though, closing the dashboard again and I'm in limbo. Somebody mentioned the game started rendering when they toggled the dashboard, but that just crashes the game for me after a few tries.

Instead I tried WiVRn today, that has been around a bit longer, uses Monado and can be build kinda easily via Envision. As I'm a bit familiar with Monado already, have it up and running with my Valve Index, with wlx-overlay, WiVRn worked pretty well. I need to tinker around with its settings though, as compression hit hard on the visuals.

Nonetheless, having Steam Link VR now in beta is a really good sign. Looks like Steam Frame is full steam ahead!

Loving the new performance monitor! I can see all my gpu stuff, temps, etc... I don't even need the other resource monitor pages running now at all!
