Quoting: lqe5433All Stadia games will be also published to Linux/SteamOs?
This would be the best, but I'm afraid it won't be the case...
However port a Stadia game for Feral should be an easy task, right?

Not necessarily, there may be legal blocks, unwilling third parties, etc. For most of the big studios it probably wouldn't be a huge issue to port a game to linux, but the time it takes they probably view as a waste.

Atom RPG, hopefully trying out the new stuff they added. Probably going to try the new-old elusive target in hitman 2 too, and a few rounds of dead cells.

Quoting: KimyrielleThe EU is in that fuzzy "not yet a nation, but not individual states anymore either" state. It's written goal actually IS full confederation one day. It's taking a while, because there are too many dumbass nationalists around that don't understand the "the sum is greater than its parts" thing.

That's quite a naive interpretation. People like that are a convenient excuse for the western (mainly german) capital to maintain the status quo. Here in Hungary for example, the marriage between the state and the german auto industry takes on such insane size that these german companies pay virtually no taxes, get funded up to 50% for building factories, and get away with paying their employees less even in a regional comparison.

Quoting: SalvatosBut can you copy the installed files and move them to other systems and across OS upgrades or would you need to use the installer every time?

Of course you can. OS upgrades only affect openmw, which you can reinstall/recompile. All it needs from the original game is the data, which should be safe as long as you don't wipe your partitions or make a backup of it.

Quoting: dvdI reallly like how much simpler this UI feels. I'd hope we get some customisation options in the future too - like getting rid of the ad pop-ups and making steam launcher the size of the old friends list window.

FYI you can already do both (the first in the settings, and the second in the toolbar, IIRC).
Not sure if you meant more options like these, or specifically wanted those?

Cool, thanks! I didn't know about the first one (although now i think i found the right checkmark).

I have to say I'm really impressed with the performance of Wine. After the first episode of hitman has been released for free i couldn't wait for the possible linux port so i tried it. While the shader compilation frustrated me for a while (it only ever occured in Hawke's Bay though, not on any of the legacy maps), it all in all runs quite well, just loads a little slower and on a bit lower quality than the feral port. That said, i hope it will appear on the Feral radar, so i can play it on full settings and i can buy the remaining episodes and DLCs, as Feral and IO are two of my favourite companies. (and i really like hitman, i mean, i even installed wine to play it :)

I'm a bit suprised about the metro games: I've never had any stuttering/slowing down on my pc, and the games seemed playable even on my 8 year old laptop.

Quoting: slaapliedjeIf someone made a Munchkin or INWO online game, I'd be all over that. Not going to buy some other card game just because it's Valve.

Pretty much anything that says 'card game' in a digital form, I just ignore. I think I have Slay the Spire, and I think that mentions something about cards for abilities, so I still haven't tried it.

OT, but:
I've noticed in the past two weeks two promotions for elder scroll games, so i got excited. Until i saw they were for the MMO and the card game...

Quoting: jensThat said, DXVK clearly wins when looking at availability. Whereas Feral port are usually several months later than the Windows release, Steam Play/DXVK works on day one (if it works). Would be cool if Feral could improve on this side and shorten the time between window and their release date. Dunno what is in their hands though.

How is DXVK and SteamPlay porting? Who would pay 60 to 100 euros for that? No one... If i wanted to play wine games i would stick by the appdb... You know what else works on day one (if it works at all)? Windows...
