#TechRadar I’ve spent hundreds of hours testing the best PS5 Pro games, and now that the console has dropped to a lowest-ever price, I can't recommend it enough for what's to come in 2026 https://techrad.ar/sVRq #Gaming

Hey #VALVE ! Can you explain to me please, why the #STEAM running in the background doin' NOTHING consumes MORE than 1GB of RAM ??! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! It's a MENU !! How can a simple MENU require more than 1GB ?! I welcome your efforts to #LINUX , #STEAMDECK , #STEAMMACHINE and all that! But wasting my resources like that is just LAZY!! #gaming

I haven't bought a videogame in three months. One easy way to achieve this is to just go through your physical collection each time you get the urge.

I'm not kidding when I say that the letter "A" is enough to kill all urge to buy a new game. Under that letter I have almost all the Atelier games that were released on the Switch. Unplayed. If I were to start right now I wouldn't be done with them before 2028.

This is how you beat capitalism.

I can see that #Cyberpunk2077 is on sale on XBox store and it's within my price range. Only Q is: should I buy it?

I generally love open world RPGs. Red Dead Redemption 2, Witcher 3 and Skyrim are among my favourite games ever.

But I don't like punishing, hard games. Soulslikes are rubbish and I stop playing anything that becomes more frustrating than fun. And I've heard a couple of comments that Cyberpunk might be the latter.

Have you played it? What's it like?

Some tags I find useful:

What animal species is involved

The area of study involved

The name and time of the event involved

The Company/country(s)/organisation/people involved

The sector of the economy involved

The movie/tv/game/media involved

fascinating take I've seen in Fediverse about Steam Machine: that Valve is going to become the Apple of Linux

well, on one thing Valve definitely is going to copy Apple's approach: inflated price for underpowered tech (assuming Linus Tech Tips's hints about Steam Machine being way above $500 price tag are true)

if they're going to put over $600 price tag, it may genuinely kill any chances for Linux gaming to become mainstream before it begins

This is your daily reminder that Microsoft is subject to a BDS boycott due to its active support of the IDF during the genocide in Palestine via Microsoft Azure & AI services. Microsoft has additionally actively tried to purge pro-Palestinian dissent among its employees and has repeatedly fired people for objecting to its complicity in genocide. If you support Microsoft (or its products) with your money or with your voice, your supporting is helping to enable genocide.

This boycott targets most of Microsoft's products and services, including the entirety of Microsoft's gaming division. This means every company owned by Microsoft - and unfortunately, that is a lot.

Popular developers owned by Microsoft include ID software, Bethesda, Activision Blizzard, Obsidian Entertainment, Double Fine, and Mojang.

Popular & upcoming games included in this boycott are Overwatch 2, Minecraft, Doom: The Dark Ages, the Oblivion Remake, The Outer Worlds 2, the Elder Scrolls Online, every Call of Duty game, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, the Forza series, and more.

If you aren't willing to stop playing these games, please consider at least not spending any money on them and not amplifying them on social media. It sucks, I know. I have been a huge fan of ID software and Bethesda for much of my life. But they will still be here in a few years, whereas if we do not do everything in our power stop the genocide in Palestine, Palestine may not.

You can read more about the boycott at the BDS movement website:

I'm still thinking about our ARC Raiders session from last night. Our trio hunted Queens and Matriarchs. We got four. That's not a problem with the Hullbreaker.

➡️ I interpreted that brief second as follows: Taking down the strongest opponent together was a great experience, and we all benefited from working as a team.

Gaming industry lately...

Kerbal Space Program 2? So badly received, they removed all the devs.

Civilization 7? bad copy of Civ6; 30€ for two leaders and a few extras. Other smaller microtransactions.

Cities Skylines 2? It's like the alpha of the first CS, without the asset editor which made the first so successful, and already full of microtransactions.

Subnautica 2? They fired all the original devs of the original to practically steal their money.

What else?

Guys,

Where Winds Meet is a FANTASTIC game.

Holy hell does this blow away any game made here in recent memory to me.

I think game developers here need to look deep at this game and take lots of notes.

Rockstar's parody of Twitter in 2013's Grand Theft Auto V feels downright quaint compared to what Twitter would end up becoming a decade later.

Many months ago, I was trying to mod Borderlands 2 on Linux.
It has been made easier with Steam Deck as most mod mangers offer Linux builds.

I wish there was an all-in-one GUI software which handled mods for games. It would assist in installing mods for all kinds of games like how Minecraft’s third party launchers do.

I just love World at War series of deep war strategy games. A lot was lost when game companies resigned anything that was turn-based as unprofitable:

The Talos Principle 2 (Multi, XPd on a Linux OS PC) As 1k, the newest (and perhaps last) member of the reborn humanity, you set off on an expedition to explore a Mega Structure on a remote island. What you find could alter humanity's course forever.

So, (spoilers) as a direct sequel to the now 11yr old 1st game, you play as a new "human" that has left the Simulation and been incorporated into a body in the Real World. As human number 1000, you are the culmination of "The Goal" that "The Founder", Athena (the char you play in the first game) has set for Humanity. Or did she?

If you liked Portal, The Messenger, etc, you should play these games. They are excellently crafted. TP2 greatly expands on the scope
both in the environment you explore and the puzzles you must solve. Very brain hurty in a good way.

There is a ton of lore to discover in each area and it's great fun to go exploring off track to find it. The various sections of the island you explore are vastly different climes and each has new puzzle variations and extras. The interactions with your fellow "Humans" are all well written, enough that I actually found myself annoyed at some of the NPCs because of their scare tactic language, trying to stop you from exploring, finding answers, etc. On the flip side, some of the characters are very endearing.

The game is very pretty in the "old school bespoke assets" way, so expect to find a few graphical errors here and there 😉 The music is good, tho it can get repetitive. Mechanics feel good.

On the tech side, the game ran great on my Linux OS. I didn't notice much lag, any game ending glitches, etc. Also had no issues with my KK3 Max controller.

This was a great experience, one I don't think any puzzle minded gamers should skip or miss. Definitely do recommend. 👍 👍

Trying to get Dawn of War II to work with multiplayer co-op on Linux using the GOG version is an insane process. The closest I can get is having Galaxy services connected in game, but no way to get the overlay to work and show me invites from friends (and no ability to invite friends for same reason)

I'm going to be trying a build of Heroic using this PR today and see if I can finally resolve this:
