Kyle Crane returns in Dying Light: The Beast
22 August 2024 at 11:16 am UTC

Quoting: F.UltraBut Kyle died at the end of The Following no matter which choice you did, but now he have just been caged for 10 years?
Didn't you hear? Crane is the Night Hunter!
There were three endings, actually. You could go big badaboom early with the military codes, makes you wonder how many nukes they had laying around there. Anyway Techland implied the Infected ending is canon since the Nuclear option would likely have destroyed the virus.
Crane was always special, what could go wrong/right by mixing him with the virus, Antizin, the Mothers vapors and possibly some additional effects from interacting with her in the end... becoming a sentient were-zombie Night Hunter volatile seems on brand for this fella.

Also, Techland stated at their new site for The Beast:
Quotewe will be offering Dying Light: The Beast at no extra cost to all owners of the Dying Light 2 Stay Human Ultimate Edition. However, we will stop selling Ultimate Edition and Ultimate Upgrade by September 30, 2024. Everyone who owns Ultimate Edition by that time will be eligible to receive Dying Light: The Beast at no extra cost.

I'm sure we can trust M$ to never do something like this on purpose.

OMG Crane IS the Night Hunter!

Jokes aside, this better be a return to Dying Light 1 glory. I see some god damn wallrunning there in the trailer suggesting it'll be Dying Light 2 nonsense again. Fingers crossed...

Hunt: Showdown 1896 broke on Linux / Steam Deck, here's the quick fix for now

Only use Proton Experimental for the edge cases where something isn't working properly, like this one. There's already a fix and it'll be merged into stock Proton as necessary, making Hotfix version the current proper choice for this specific game at this point in time. Once merged, change back to stock Proton.

Do not use Experimental as default or as a permanent choice. It cannot be overstated or repeated enough times. Come on people.

Manjaro Linux gets an Immutable version available for testing

Who gives a shit what Boilingsteam thinks about anything. That place is a waste of bits, much like Manjaro. One would hope it can't get any worse... but I'm certain they'll find a way.

I don't know how they do it, these wizard devs.
The game comes as a 23 MB AppImage using the Love 2D engine and ran perfectly fine in Siduction. Even has integer scaling option in the settings and touch screen support, the previous games are also free and they all have web versions if you don't want to install anything. I recommend using the quite nice itch.io launcher, the games are just a few clicks away!

Indie devs man, they deliver value "triple A" can't even dream of.
