Still bugs me to no end that they have released multiple trailers in which the narrator calls it "The River Realms"

Interesting. Overwatch was the first game I tried with an early version of DXVK.

Quoting: HamishI would not exactly call Betrayer that much of an Indie game though; it was designed by Craig Hubbard of Monolith Productions fame as well as whole bunch of other Monolith veterans.

Indie does not mean amateur. A lot of indie studios are packed with industry veterans.

Quoting: CatKillerI got Gears 5 in a bundle with a bunch of games that I was much more interested in, so I wasn't bothered that it didn't work. If it works now I might give it a go at some point. It's a chonker download, though.

I had fun with it. As far as a game goes it's an average shooter, but the character writing is great.

Pfff, I enjoyed Iconoclasts quite a bit.

The ROG Ally has been pretty amusing. Most reviews seem to amount to "This thing has great hardware, but pity it runs Windows". Somewhere in the last year and a half Linux became the cool OS to run for games.

A fun aside (Steam Deck at around 3:25):

Quoting: leo523Probably it's because FSR 2 can run on Xbox and get higher FPS.

The game has been confirmed will launch with a 30fps cap on console.

A thing I have noticed about Battle.net is that when you are prompted to log in on Steam Deck, it actually opens the on-screen keyboard automatically when you focus the boxes. And the user/pass boxes actually nudge up to be above the keyboard. This is significant, because as far as I know, this is something that an application has to initiate manually by using Steamworks, not some happy crossover of standards or something.

Sorry for the bad phone picture, but this is what I mean. Someone at Blizz had to make this happen on purpose.

This works quite well, but it uses GE-proton-custom I believe to do the installs. It's easy enough to change afterwards though, just by changing the individual compatibility settings from within Steam.

One thing it does well that I wish more tutorials would show when installing non-Steam stuff, is it uses the STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH variable. Very useful for keeping things easy to manage.

I have seen so many tutorials from popular YouTubers that go one step worse even. They show people to add the installer to Steam, then running it, which creates a prefix, and then adding the exe for the launcher to Steam separately, which results in ANOTHER prefix being created. Instead of just, ya know, editing the exe location in the existing entry.
