Speaking of Black Myth: Wukong, can it run on Steam Deck? I assume that is way too demanding title for the Steam Deck to handle, but I just thought of asking anyway.

Not necessarily. They don't necessarily have very limited servers, it could be that they can still handle millions of users but they want to avoid sudden spikes or unexpectedly high number of players. Also, having easy invite doesn't mean everyone interested will jump on. Many people, like myself, will just prefer to wait for the official release rather than going the extra steps to get an invite. Even if those extra steps are super easy, they are still extra steps.

Quoting: GOL_USERSeems a little too easy and you've got to wonder if Valve will shut down invites. Not sure they have the server capacity for all the people getting in...

It's pretty similar to Zero-K but more polished. In terms of gameplay I would say the main difference is that BAR has the concept of generations, i.e. there are regular factories and advanced factories.

Quoting: MnolegDoes anyone know how this game compares to Zero-K? I spent a lot of time playing Zero-K last year and it become one of my favourite games. Special mention to the huge and diverse singleplayer campaign, which these kind of games usually lack. Kudos to the developers.

Nice trailer for a good game. I play this from time to time and it's highly recommended if you are into RTS.

If we assume there are approximately 1 billion desktop users in the world, then we are looking at around 45 million people around the world using Linux. That is more than the population of Canada. Pretty nice.

I would say for multiplayer games the publisher should release the server code (whether in source or binary format) with instructions on how to get it up and running and leave it up to the community to do the job.
Will anything dethrone the Steam Deck? Probably not

My cousin bought the Rog Ally and I got to play around with it a bit and the experience was terrible. I started a game from their launcher and ended up thrown back into Windows multiple times to respond to some popups. Eventually I got the game running but the whole experience was just clunky. This is the main reason the Deck sells better; people generally favour smooth experience over smooth fps.
