Owners of Dying Light get upgraded to the Enhanced Edition, final patch out now

Quoting: BogomipsMy Dying Light broke two updates ago. I now have a black and brown screen with the background music.
Three standard things to try:

  • Try adding the launch option -nologos to skip the intro movie, faster loading and can help with black screen/white loading bar crash. (bonus points, this works in Dying Light 2 also)
    Right-click on Dying Light in your Steam Library -> Properties -> Launch Options.

  • If using the Linux native version, try the SLR compatibility tool (Steam Linux Runtime) which uses older libraries to help older games work on modern distros.
    Find it in game Properties -> Compatibility

  • You can also use Proton to play the Windows version, it likely runs better as well. Also found in game Properties -> Compatibility.

Quoting: Kuduzkehpanwhat about Dying Light 2 Linux version??
Nope, not going to happen. Source: me. ;)

Side note, both Dying Light games run great with Proton and on the Steam Deck. The standalone multiplayer only title Bad Blood doesn't count, it's dead (and had anticheat).

Hmm. Thinking about the stricter security measures for repo signing and keyring storage, deprecating apt-key, trusted.gpg etc, aiming to prevent a repository from shipping packages that the administrator does not expect that repository to ship.

This almost feels like a tool designed to circumvent all of that.
Embracer Group to acquire Eidos, Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix Montréal

Quoting: wytrabbitThey're never mentioned when speaking about their subsidiaries games', and they have A LOT of subsidiaries...
They sure are mentioned and well known in the industry.
THQ Nordic was embracing game companies long before they became Embracer Group, as has been continuously reported by plenty gaming news sites over the years. They might not have the notoriety of say, Tencent, but they are definitely not a secret.

It isn't really though.

I'm a bit concerned what the endgame is for Embracer Group.

Quoting: Liam DaweI have to admit though, the camouflage is absolutely gorgeous and I am considering rewrapping entirely in it.
But how will you find the thing afterwards???
