Wishes are boring. I'm a bit psychic, so here are some predictions instead:
  • Elon Musk tires of the slow development pace of Proton and tries to buy Valve
  • A game is released that uses nothing but emojis as a title causing several storefronts to crash
  • GOG changes name to OGO - Old Games Outlet

Quoting: Arcadius-8606This trend in the Linux gaming space is extremely off putting. Makes me stay further away for things like Steam since it seems to be causing mental disorders. Any store that sell linux games without a client can get my coin.

I don't think it's the subject matter. We're always going to have discussions like these. Do you know what the collective noun for a group of Linux users is? It is an argument of Linux users.

Fallout: New Vegas: You picked up this game for the first time and were immediately hooked.

Yep. Largest amount of hours in a single game and it pretty much dethroned Fallout 2 as my favorite Fallout. Still got the DLC to look forward to!

I play a lot of games outside of Steam so I keep track and do my own end of the year report. So far I have wasted about 17 days or 4.6% of the year playing games...

Quoting: JRayLambI've got a couple of other games on my wishlist and maybe once I get to it, I'll pick this one up *if* I don't need the amdgpu-pro drivers for it.
They used to require the proprietary drivers for the older version of the game. It looks like the Steam page haven't been updated.

Their own webpage have the correct information:
"We require the Mesa drivers, version 22.0 or newer, for AMD to run X-Plane."

Quoting: CatKiller
Quoting: TurkeysteaksAnyone got any recommendations for short-ish indies on the deck? Have been trying to get through my backlog, but too easy to get addicted to endless roguelikes at the moment.

Point and click adventure games work really well on the Deck, and are one-and-done.
Samorost!

Total play time: 15 minutes. 17 minutes for completionists.

Quoting: melkemind"So there IS life after death." - Duke Nukem
I live... AGAIN! No, sorry! Wrong game!

Trailer looks quite amazing, at the same time. I'm not sure if a whole game would be all that fun? The Duke is best appreciated in small doses.
