- Comment on [Mini Poll] Which of these games feels closest to the original Half-Life? 2 days ago:
AvP, it was more climatic and less frantic than Quake IIRC.

Arch with shitshow on top
- Comment on CoolerControl v4 adds new security features, brings hardware support and more 1 week ago:
I want Linux to have something as cool-looking as NZXT’s app. Both apps have proper APIs, I thought maybe someone made a unifying GUI.
- Comment on Performing Right Society (PRS) sues Valve over video game music 2 weeks ago:
I bet all these lawsuits against Valve are tied to a group formed by Epic & Microsoft among others.
- Comment on Fedora 44 Beta is out with KDE improvements, better live media and more 2 weeks ago:
Last major release I believe it took less than a few hours to hit Bazzite.
- Comment on CoolerControl v4 adds new security features, brings hardware support and more 2 weeks ago:
Is there a way to have OpenRGB’s & Cooler Control features bundled in one app ?
- Comment on Valve suggests further delays for Steam Machine: 'We hope to ship in 2026' 2 weeks ago:
For $600, I bought a GMKTEC K12, Ryzen 7 H255 32GB DDR5 and 512 GB M2 SSD. Flashed Bazzite before first boot.
I’ll wait for the Steam Machine very patiently while I play games with my kids in the living room TV.
This thing performs incredibly well, much more than my kids would need. Their friends with PS5 consoles are impressed by the quality and the amount of games we have. Steam is unbeatable.
Project Helix is doomed.
- Comment on Good News! EA Is Expanding Its Anti-Cheat to ARM64, and Linux Could Be Next 2 weeks ago:
I believe Linux is around ~4 games away from becoming globally mainstream:
- EA’s FC series (FIFA)
- Activision’s Call of Duty series
- Epic’s Fortnite
- Roblox (playable RN but 2nd class experience)
One more game would be great for those people that play them and are interested in moving away from consoles.

Well, there goes playing this on a Steam Machine or Deck.
- Comment on Minecraft Java is switching from OpenGL to Vulkan for the Vibrant Visuals update 4 weeks ago:
I wish it had split screen & controller support.
- Comment on Epic will lean harder on Fortnite to drive third-party sales on Epic Games Store, with 100 licensed tie-ins a year 1 month ago:
Because they can’t sell anything through the Epic Games Store.
- Comment on Days after cancelling their Linux-compatible mod loader, Nexus Mods announces that they're bringing SteamOS support to Vortex 1 month ago:
Just like any other FOSS project:
Devs chose a repo of their choice, the distributor (in this case Nexus) choses a repo (GitHub is either free or very cheap for FOSS projects) to check for compliance, vulnerabilities, etc and then it’s cloud natively packaged for distribution.
This is how Flathub, Homebrew, and the Universal Project distros are built and distributed.
I bet Nexus would save a ton of money if they went this way.
- Comment on Days after cancelling their Linux-compatible mod loader, Nexus Mods announces that they're bringing SteamOS support to Vortex 1 month ago:
Any GIT repo ?

This is really cool.
- Comment on Valve stress again that there'll be more Steam Machine Verified games than Steam Deck ones, with "fewer constraints" in their testing programme 2 months ago:
They already have a badge for that.
- Comment on The best Linux distributions for gaming in 2026 2 months ago:
In my opinion, it’s either Bazzite or CachyOS.
- Comment on Augmented Steam browser plugin added AI features from VaporLens 2 months ago:
I hope someone with the will & the means makes a fork without AI.
- Comment on Hytale will launch with native Linux support, though the Steam Deck is "not officially recommended" 2 months ago:
If it gets controller support & local coop, it’s insta-buy for my kids. Right now they are playing Portal Knights until I make time to mod Minecraft.
- Comment on Steam survey for December 2025 shows Linux holding to 3.19% 2 months ago:
For something like FIFA & Call of Duty for example?
I imagine somewhere between 8% and 20% just for enabling anticheat support. That would be around 20 million monthly active users.
Some smaller devs are already doing the extra mile and making native ports, like Baldur’s Gate 3 for example.
- Comment on I was recently gifted a Steam Deck for Christmas! If you only had a budget of, let's say 50 bucks, what would you get? 2 months ago:
Maybe list games you have enjoyed in the past ? So we can suggest games more tailored to your interests.
- Comment on What game recently hooked you on the Deck, more than on PC ? 2 months ago:
