a cartooney hero team shooter.

I guess they know exactly what demo they're going after. Knowing Valve, it'll be extremely polished so I hope people can have fun in it! I do wish someday they'd do a proper rpg. Just thinking about the quality they could do in that genre is mind bending. But seeing as the pace of development at Valve seems to go in super duper ultra slow motion, i'm not holding out much hope.

Everyone pretending like the game is already out and they know exactly how it plays and feels. You all have zero clue ffs. All you've seen is some youtube trailers, and how many times has a game come out that's nothing at all like those (both good and bad sides).

Quoting: LungDragoMaybe I am just a hopeless centrist but I do believe the most prudent decision is to just wait and see with cautious optimism. It would be nice to be pleasantly surprised for a change.

This is the best mindset.

Quoteas already confirmed before, no EA App is needed - so Steam Deck / Linux players won't have to deal with launcher breakage constantly.

OMG YES. This is pretty damn good news. I was soooooo bummed out by that cartooney looter shooter garbage trailer they released a while back, but pretty much every update about the game since has drawn me back in a little bit. This one is a great update.

I LOVED Inquisition, so initially I was super pumped for this. We shall see.

For sure this'll be one I'll check out. Hopefully I won't get to endgame and get bored out of my mind like in the first one. Even if so, there's plenty of enjoyment to be had getting there, so it'll be worth it no matter what.

Great news that they're hiring, and putting more development work into the linux space.

It's broken graphically. In the settings it lists my monitors resolution (3440x1440) but in-game it has black bars on the side and only displays at 16:9. Lots of discussion posts on steam about the same thing.

How on earth did that get past testing?

normally I'm very much against early access as well, but this definitely doesn't feel like it. At least in the beginning.

Downloaded it this morning! I've been very much looking forward to this since the demo released earlier this year. Can't wait to get in some good play time this weekend! This is the exact kind of "factory builder" I want: no timers, no invasions, no citizens dying, etc.

Quoting: Cloversheen

Quoting: JarmerThey recently downgraded Mesa from 24.1.4 to 24.1.3 so now my entire system wants to do a downgrade whenever I run the update utility (which on a rolling distro is often!) - does anyone by chance know why this happened? I have been looking but can't find any info anywhere!! Maybe due to instability? Just not sure.

Last time I did a downgrade like this with an important section of my system I had to roll the entire thing back so I'm hesitant.

It's because of dependencies, unfortunately Mesa includes not just the drivers themselves but also the interfaces, so a lot of apps are packages with a link to a specific Mesa in the main repos so they pull in a vendor change to get the version they expect.

One way around it is to configure it to prevent vendor changing away from Packman, but I don't remember how to do that. Then updates from openSUSE just won't be able to be installed and should just remain in the queue until Mesa is updated in the main repos.

Actually I finally just found out the reason. For anyone else with this strangeness: it's a bug in 24.1.4 with relation to video in vlc. So they rolled it back to 24.1.3 and are working on getting 24.1.5 ready for release which should be any week now, so best just to wait. Here's the bugzilla on this exact issue:

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1228164

And here's the link to all the various mesa version in the repos, for opensuse, it's the same exact version in the official repos as it is in packman.

Quoting: ToddLIt's always great to see Godot continuing to make huge changes to become a viable alternative over Unity.

Completely agree! I very much look forward to the day when more crpgs use this engine rather than so many of them currently using Unity.
