Steam Link hardware officially walks the plank, there's an app for that

I had a link and sold it. I loved it at the time but I gave up Steam for about year and came back when Steamplay was talked about. I had no issues with it. It worked well. Family and I ended "Mother Russia Bleeds" and "I AM THE HERO" on it.

But the multiplayer servers are down :(

I have the GOG version. You can play offline multiplayer with no problem. Awhile back I was able to edit some of the cfg files and play online for a bit with some 3rd party server that some GOG forums members had.

Quoting: NezchanAm I imagining things or did Jamestown and Reckless Disregard for Gravity already have Linux ports around someplace? Humble, maybe? I'm absolutely certain I've played the latter on Linux at least (and been terrible at it).
Jamestown at least had a Linux port but, if I remember correctly, it hasn't been updated since its Humble launch and isn't on Steam.

The Jamestown linux version also requires the editing of a cfg file and the insertion of a steam api 32 bit file. So while it does work it requires some messing about to get it up and running.

Picked up Ultra Street Fighter® IV from Fanatical. It's been an awesome experience playing this via Steamplay on all of my rigs. It even runs on my Dell Latitude E6420 which is amazing!

My kids have really like SF. Skullgirls - YES! The King of Fighters - YES! Now they are loving this one and it's been awesome to play against them.

So I started playing this game again, since I've returned to Steam. I am still very much in the middle of like/dislike with how I feel about this game. Perhaps, it is because I'm an older gamer and use to quick deathmatch games that I can LAN with family and friends. I picked this up as it was the first MP shooter that I purchased/supported that did not have those feature to see what that's all about. That aside.

The game performs excellently. The game looks great.

I still have issue with teams not being evened out until players decide to switch. Why there is not auto-switch, I have no clue.

Lately, I've been in matches with players that are really high ranks and levels with really elite weapons and those usually do not go very well. I am still under 20 level with the Berserker which I am trying unlock all the stuff for.

I've had some great matches with people when then the servers are full but when they are low it's pretty bad. That can only be helped with more players, tho.

They're should be an offline mode to try out the classes at least. Having to join a match with a new class and having permanent stats of that match affect your always shown stats when loading the game blows.

Unepic is awesome. I do not like many Metroidvania games but this one had me from beginning to end.

I just picked up Turok Dinosar Hunter from GOG. I played the game as a kid but I cannot remember ending it but I messed with some mods on it for back then.

Strife Veteran Edition was my favorite game that I played in 2017 that was SP and these guys made that happen to.

I am going to keep my eye on this one for when the GOG version makes it's way.

What are you playing this weekend?
