QuoteNo doubt it will be another handheld running Windows though
If I got a dollar for every time I saw an ROG Ally ad in super-mainstream places online...

Frustrating to see how easily ASUS and Microsoft can throw huge money at promoting it.

I understand that Valve took another avenue because they have the advantage of holding such central place in PC gaming but still... Frustrating.

Quoting: CatKillerAt some point I'll probably try Witcher 3, but my copy was a GOG key that came with my GPU so I'd need to set up Heroic and stuff, and I haven't really been arsed. (..) there's no rush.
Setting up Heroic is rather painless ☺️. But yeah this is why we love Steam and the native client!

QuoteWhat have you been playing recently on either Steam Deck or desktop Linux?
Skyrim on Desktop with Steam Link and Steam Controller! Mostly because I had no mindspace for trying out new stuff lately...

I started Divinity: Original Sin 1 but did not have time to play it much past like the first 3 hours.

And I regularly play Fall Guys with friends thanks to the Heroic Games Launcher goodness.

Quoting: whizseI was actually about to start playing The Dark Eye today. Now I need to ponder. To ScummVM or not to ScummVM?
Good question. It sports Platinum rating on ProtonDB through Proton so I guess you can stick with it. Or try both.

The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall remake Daggerfall Unity 1.0 out now

Thanks to this project Daggerfall aged... Surprisingly well? It's just very much different to everything Elder Scrolls that came after. Huge, and I mean HUGE open world, lots of procedural generation, interactions and politics in the ever changing world and more.

Morrowind is a game from my era and Oblivion is my favorite so I always had difficulty getting into Daggerfall which was less streamlined. Now enjoying it thanks to this project. DF Unity is a godsend.

All 5 mainline TES games are fully playable on Steam on Linux btw:

- Arena - Dosbox through Luxtorpeda
- Daggerfall - DF Unity through Luxtorpeda
- Morrowind - OpenMW through Luxtorpeda
- Oblivion - Proton
- Skyrim (both legacy version and current Special/Anniversary Edition) - Proton

And then TES: Online and TES: Legends, also work great with Proton.
