Ubuntu sucks ass. Use Bazzite.


I mean we have tons of anticheat games working on Linux. More than people realize. Elden Ring, The Finals, Overwatch 2, CS2, Apex Legends, xDefiant and more that I can’t remember right now. It’s not that bad even as a multiplayer gamer. The ones that don’t work R6S, Val, LoL, Fortnite, CoD and Destiny pretty much.



The driver is just beginning to be developed. It’s a miracle it can do this already. In 1-2 years it should be be immensely better, I would say, at this rate, comparable to the proprietary drivers of Nvidia.



Serious games are a genre. So like education games, brain training games. These are called Serious Games. This is a traditional Action RPG with the aim to make the players think. :)


cross-posted from: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/5976031 > Hello, this is the second time I'm posting for this project and I hope someone will be interested in it. :)I am making an Action RPG called Reverse Module. [All the ideas I currently have are on Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/StavrosAeneasKokkineas).[I also have a Steam page for it](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1712320/Reverse_Module/). > > The game has to do with Utopia/Dystopia balance and it aims to present some ethical dillemas (combined with choices) that will make anyone playing think into how an actual Utopia could be achieved. In the process I hope to make the world a better place, even if a little. > > The story begins in a city called Visthansia, where people can have two microchips on them. One of them doesn't allow them to hurt other people while the other calls the police if they're in trouble. These microchips are not mandatory and people get paid a UBI for having one on or double the money for both. > > The game will be made in Godot, we will use Reallusion CC4 for the characters (in Windows since there is no decent Linxu alternative) and the Terrain Plugin for Godot 4. Also if something is available in the Godot Asset Library, and is of use for the project, it will also be used. > > The GDD, code and assets of the project will be licenced under GPL2. Please let me know if you are interested. :) > > My personal background is on coding for games, mainly gameplay. Ii have a degree in Electronics Engineering with a Master's in Graphics Programming and AI. I have been developing games for 20 years now, whether as a hobby or professionally. My aim with any project is to challenge the player's world view or at the very least help the player in some way. My current job is on Brain Training games for people with Alzheimer's Dementia etc. > > Having said that, this is not a serious game, this is a traditional game with the goal of making players think.

(OpenSUSE Tumbleweed vs Windows 11) Assassin’s Creed Odyssey
cross-posted from: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/5265787 > A video for any doubters that Linux gaming is better than Windows in which it DESTROYS Windows by 25% in AC Odyssey. To put it in perspective, 25% improvement is like getting a new GPU. You can save $600 and instead use something like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for free. > > DISCLAIMER: I don't really care to make Linux look better but I did a video some days ago and EVERYONE (on Reddit) told me Linux gaming CANNOT be faster or smoother. This is the proof it's both and more videos will be coming.

Oh, no worries. I’ve seen more insane things happen. Like Facebook and Google being created.


People will at some point need to realize that they have to donate and not pay a compulsory fee for products that are worth the money. It may not be apparent now but this is where the world is heading. When Youtube Premium also starts having ads and there’s a higher tier for no ads then things will start moving and fast.


PeerTube is amazing for streaming! :)
I made a post earlier about Owncast. Long story short, I have to wait 48 hours to try it. In the meantime I decided to look into PeerTube livestreaming and I was astounded by how good it actually is. [ Here are 30 mins of smooth livestreaming on Hardlimit.](https://video.hardlimit.com/w/mSdHRPS27k5EGfLKuEMZF3) Simply amazing performance in game and on video. I just wish H265 encoding was supported, then it would be an endgame for me. Seriously, more people need to start livestreaming on Peertube and of course donate to their instances. It's worth your time and your money far more than a Youtube Premium sub which, in the future, will also contain ads 100%. PeerTube is the future of video content.

Still, casual gamers did think Linux couldn’t game. It’s changing this opinion in the best way possible and that’s really important since Linux is the best OS. I personally think we still live in medieval PC times as long as Windows is the main OS used.


Nah, the increase is 0.52%. Could be a little overblown? Yeah. Could be completely wrong? Very doubtful. Next month it will probably drop a little and keep climbing steadily but surely. But the fact that for this month Linux gamers are more than MacOS gamers for the first time is at the very least very impressive! :)


Steam Hardware & Software Survey - Go Linux! :)
Linux surpassed MacOS in marketshare for the first ever time this month. Let's go! :)

I personally think this is one of the most important videos in the history of gaming.

Oh I don’t know about that tbh. Never tried it. Plasma 6 should have HDR to an extent and HDR work in general has picked up and is progressing rather nicely for Linux in general. :)


Sure! :)

This is the full archwiki article on HDR! :) gamescope-session is not needed in my experience but the rest are.

Hope this helps! :)


Yeah I used to do Linux vs Windows benchmarks. On an AMD GPU Linux is usually faster. :)


Yup! Doable with gamescope-git and some env vars set to true. :)
