@gamingonlinux saw your article (and posts in Reddit) and I have to ask if you have any inputs/ideas on what other problems may arise at using the experimental proton? Thanks.

@gamingonlinux Valve needs to allow users to filter out games with Launchers. I don't want to buy games that have a Launcher.

@gamingonlinux Hanlon's Razor does come into effect, but I've not seen a huge amount of evidence to suggest that you are "very quick to pretend that breakage is malicious". I have seen, "really fucking sucks" enough that someone might think that it's the same thing. It does suck. There have been some games I want to play on my Linux box, that I've not managed to be able to. One, I think it's "anti-cheat" making it not work. And another... For some reason mods don't work (not a need).

@gamingonlinux Makes me worried for the Trackmania 2020 Steam release tomorrow... I'm really hoping that it improves the ease of setup on Linux, not breaks it...

@gamingonlinux Are you effing kidding me? I bought (for the second time) The Division 2 last week on Steam as I wanted to play it on my gaming PC, which I converted to Linux last year... I thought I'd support a company that was looking like they might improve their support for linux ... I already owned the game via Epic or maybe uplay... who knows... All these launchers need to die in a fire.

I hope one day Valve reneges on their third party launcher agreement. Most games just use it as an advertising hub for DLC anyways. IMHO launchers are a tiny inconvinence at their best, and game breaking at their worst, they shouldn't exist.

:bd17: I remember as a kid, I had no clue how to play the game, so I was just running around Hyrule aimlessly. Years later I saw some YouTube walk through and had an epiphany. Will have to try it out eventually.

@gamingonlinux Wonder how long before it's combined with Super Metroid reverse engineered for a randomizer.

What is even the point in the Humble Games Collection (a part of Humble Choice), if they won't even keep their own published games in it? 😂💀 https://blog.humblebundle.com/2023/01/30/februarys-humble-games-collection-updates/

@gamingonlinux I usually find myself defending them when people say Humble isn't worth using anymore, but it has become rare indeed to see their old spirit shining through. 😬
Mike Kasprzak 🦖
@gamingonlinux Unsurprising to see weirdness given that Humble has new owners... Or not so new, I forget exactly when they were acquired.

@gamingonlinux There's no point in it even existing. Almost no one used it. I have had Humble Choice since the start and have never even felt the urge to look at the collection.

@gamingonlinux I enjoyed the original and I'd like to give this a go but not at $57.00 NZ.

@gamingonlinux At first I was interested, but then decided the price tag is too high for a nostalgia trip.

@gamingonlinux HI! I'm making a game on linux but i would like to support windows + proton cause seems more manageable. You know what requisites should i take into account to "officially" support proton?
