if you download JALOPY, just add the .exe file as non-steam game and force proton. it works

my question: does valve see that i am playing this game?

Yes if you launch the game through Steam, and it will be reported as "played on Linux" to the dev' (counting as a Linux sale). :)

Are you sure? Then I could add an xterm and say it is any game.

i was thinking of a .exe hash, that connects to the game

Quoting: 1xokValve's really working hard for us. That's a real pleasure.

But what do you think: Could Valve also be planning to port games to Stadia in the future or something like that?

valve games? do you wanna play CSGO and DOTA on stadia?

id Software going all-in with Vulkan, some interesting details about that and Linux for Stadia

RAGE 2, a vulkan game doesnt work with proton so far. the problem could be denuvo

EDIT: valve... how dare you fixing problems so quckly

Outer Wilds becomes another Epic Store exclusive for a limited time

cant they all just make it exclusive for epic supported OS? mac and windows? so they can still release the linux version in other stores

BattlEye now say they're working with Valve to support Steam Play

if PUBG and R6 SIEGE work then, that means all of the top 10 games on steam run on linux

Easy Anti-Cheat is actually still supported for Linux, a statement from Epic Games

i think it wouldnt be a good idea to stop linux support before stadia is released
of course stadia doesnt need anti cheat, but like Ashes of the Singularity some developers will release a linux port on steam, gog and itch if they already have it for stadia

Quoting: einherjarI really don't understand, why Valve doesn't fight back?

They are in a war. There is EPIC and soon there ist Stadia. Also MS is buying Gamedevs - so they surely soon will start something like Windows-Store exclusives. And I can Imagine that EPIC will do a cooperation with discord (TEncent...) to get Voice and friendship Lists into EPIC very soon.

I can't see Valve doing something. In my feeling they get more and more irrelevant. The cool new stuff goes to EPIC and I am sure even Stadia will get exclusives.

I really like Valve for beeing open (not only in Terms of Linux support). But if they don't start to fight, they will get in serious trouble.

Perhaps they should try to buy CDPR before google, MS or EPIC is doing it. Or another studio that makes great games. Must not be Steam exclusive then - but Perhaps "non epic exclusiv" :-)
Or buy the Unity company to have control over a widely used engine (I think source-engine is out dated)

Come on Valve - get out of your comfort zone! (It shrinks..)

you mean like getting BETHESDA, which means RAGE 2, WOLFENSTEIN, FALLOUT76, DOOM ETERNAL? i think 3 of them will work with proton

or risk of rain 2. i dont have this game, but it is very popular
mordhau, sekiro, dmc5
its not like sream doesnt get any new titles

Facepunch Studios have given an update on the future of Rust for Linux, issues with "third parties"
