Anti-cheat should be supported on the Steam Deck, but on the other hand, most of these games are unfit for the handheld form factor and as proof of that, it doesn't seem to impact the Steam Deck sales. It is sad for Linux desktops, though.

Quoting: MohandevirJust got the upgrade, on my PC... After the update, I was left with an empty desktop. All the apps had been removed. I had to reinstall the desktop with "pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -" to get them back.

Hu... rray!

After updating it, all the applications disappeared, I cursed as only we Sicilians know how to do, making all the existing saints fall from the sky... I counted to a thousand and solved it by restarting x11...

In fact, the first thing I did was restarting my computer... Still empty. KDE issue?

it's a strange error, rebooting didn't fix the problem for me, but switching from x11 to Wayland and then back to x11 fixed the problem...

In my case, it poped a window showing it was going to uninstall them. Since it seemed like kde basic apps, I figured they had replaced them in the new version, but I was wrong and there was no way to stop it, unless cancelling the complete update...

Anyway, once I figured the right command, it took a couple of mins to restore it.

It reminded me of the LTT incident with Pop_OS! Maybe it got fixed real quick and I was unlucky to stumble upon it?

Just updated Manjaro Gnome and...everything work, no issue for the moment. A far better experience than upgrading Ubuntu to a new version...when you have to finish manually in command line with apt-get install -f and apt-get clean...

We are on the same page.

I just had that weird occurrence and tought to share my experience, in case it happened to someone else, in case it could help.

That's exactly what I lived with Debian and Debian-like distributions, until I migrated to Arch/Manjaro.

Seriously, I did a lot of distro hopping (Arch, Debian and Fedora based) and never found a distro that didn't have some annoying issues. It's just a matter of what you are willing to cope with. This said, they are all less annoying than Windows, in my opinion.

Manjaro is the "lesser evil", atm, to me.

How...how did that even happen? What?

No clue. It's a fresh install from last week. No aur activated. Just flatpaks.

There was an update available. Saw that KDE 6 was installed and during the upgrade, all the apps were removed. That's all I can say.

Quoting: elmapulmonster hunter is another big hit...

It is, but it belongs to Capcom. I'll throw Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Romancing SaGa, The World Ends With You, and all their sequels into the list, plus once-famous one-offs like The Bouncer and Rad Racer, to replace that one.

You're totally right about Dragon Quest, by the way!

I'll have to dig back into JRPGs, some day... Flew right above my head for quite a while.

Quoting: dpanterWhat exactly do these people consider "quality", I wonder.

Well that didn't take long to be answered.
https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/square-enix-confirms-us-eu-layoffs-as-part-of-restructuring/

QuoteThe scale of the layoffs wasn’t shared, but staff were told that people working in publishing, IT, and Square Enix’s Collective indie games division would be predominantly affected.

Quote... By doing this, it will be able to “build an environment where more customers can enjoy our titles in regards to major franchises and AAA titles, including catalogue titles,” it said.

While it isn’t explicitly mentioned in the plan, the recent releases of Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth are the most obvious examples of Square Enix releasing a platform-exclusive AAA title.

Yup! Rince and repeat on more platforms!
