I also recommend Prey which is a great immersive sim shooter.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleProton Experimental also now has the Diablo IV fixes, as tweeted by Pierre-Loup Griffais. Very intereting public confirmation of Valve supporting non-Steam titles.

I haven't been able to run Diablo IV beta on my PC for now.
Even using Lutris with the right Wine-GE version or Steam with any Proton version the game just crashes and seems to not love my Nvidia card.

On the Steam Deck though it works, but even there it's not flawless. Sometimes the game slows down and even crashes SteamOS (the Deck reboots) which is something I've never experienced before with any other game.

Nice, I didn't expect that so soon.

That's very good numbers. I'm looking forward for January numbers early next year, now the Deck starts shipping in Japan, that should be very interesting :)

I currently have a jsaux, but I will order the Valve one. I'm not happy with Jsaux's design and the fact it blocks a little bit the Deck's air inlet.

At least this one does not obstruct the ventilation.

Game devs "grown up" in an environment where their user has no control on its machine's OS, therefore they thought that client side anti-cheat with a kernel rootkit was a silver bullet against cheaters.
With the rise of FOSS and Linux on consumer hardware it changes everything.
One day, all those people will have to admit that kernel level anti-cheat is not future proof and maybe they will start to find another solution.
Server side anti cheat supervised by AI could be the next better solution against cheaters.

Unfortunately this is a trend that will go on in the future.
Making native Linux games is hard especially when you have to deal with third party engine which may not handle Linux as well as Windows.

Quoting: Leopard

Quoting: BeamboomI thought this game didn't run well on desktop Linux? Has that changed?

Define desktop Linux.

If it is an Nvidia gpu; it has a big perf hit.

If it is AMD gpu with RADV driver; it is fine.

I completed the game on Fedora 36 with a RTX 2070 super and I get 80/90 fps at 1440p with high settings.
That's more than enough to enjoy the game.
