I have an alt on .ca, I find there’s a pretty good mix of beliefs there. And a fair number less tankies than where this alt I’m on is…

But admittedly, I can understand that you don’t want to create something where you are pretty sure enough media illiterate idiots will not get that the fascists are NOT supposed to be the good guys.

Just look at Helldiver 1/2, couldn’t be more in your face about it, and yet there’s still people not getting it.

Hollis-Leick and narrative director Craig Sherman pushed back on some of the “do’s and don’ts” they received from Games Workshop about Space Marine vocabulary. They deviated from the suggested phraseology to make Titus and his comrades sound less “strange and antiquated”, less like the Spanish Inquisition, and more like soldiers from real-world present-day militaries. “Space Marines don’t necessarily say things like ‘dismissed’,” Hollis-Leick observed. “There’s a line in the game where Acheran says ‘company dismissed’ and they really wanted me to change that to ‘brothers, attend your duties’, or something. But it’s three words instead of one, and if that model was applied to all of the language in the game, I really strongly felt that people wouldn’t get it.”

Gonna be a whole lotta really peeved 40k ultra fans…

I had completely wiped that from my memory…thanks…I guess…

I would highly recommend A Story About My Uncle. It took me about 6 hours to get all the things and do the whole story. It’s a somewhat challenging first-person platfomer. Basic setup for the story is your Uncle is an inventor and adventurer. He disappeared and you find a note and a device in his attic, the device teleports you to a different world/dimension, and you make friends and find adventure along the way.

Me too

I’d say unfair to the really big players (Ubi, Activision/Blizzard, EA) who push out broken games with predatory mechanics and little of actual value. The companies that don’t see their players as a community, but a cash pit to dig value out of for their shareholders.

No worries my dude!

It’s a meme.

I mean, at least you got it running

I usually don’t have much if any trouble with wine, but for whatever reason couldn’t ever get FL running

I’ve tried that, doesn’t jive. At least I’m not skilled enough to follow the simple instructions well enough to get it to work.

Edit: I’ll have another go, last time I checked the wine db 18 was the most current working version

I use Fruityloops and Deckadance, FL Studio 18 (I think) has been successfully run in wine, but I’m on 21…annnnd not so much. Deckadance not even close.

I dual boot win10 and Garuda Arch(I use Arch BTW) and it’s pretty painless. Garuda is a gaming centric distro, it plays almost every game I throw at it with no fuss. The only reason I still use windows at all is because my music production programs refuse to run on Linux, regardless of what settings I use in wine or Proton.

Well, we can agree to disagree.
I have 2 friends who decided to switch their daily driver PCs to Linux after getting a steamdeck, that’s 2 out of 5. Not a single one of those 5 has put windows on their deck. shrugs

This

I think you’re wrong. It’s showing that Linux has the capability to actually run these games. Some/most people won’t be able to equate the Linux on their handheld with Linux on a desktop, but those who do are welcome to the fold.

The Deck is basically a laptop in a handheld form factor, so no, it’s not just showing that Linux can game as a handheld.

If Proton keeps getting better, it won’t matter. I mean it matters, because this is clearly where governments should step in and bust up the monopolies, but they obviously aren’t going to.

Probably, though does that actually matter?

The SteamDeck is showing people that Linux can in fact game. And while we’re always saying “ThE yEaR oF lInUx!” This is actually a huge step in the right direction.
