6·7 months agoI still have 2 and use them daily. Definitely want a controller based on Steam Deck layout.
Well there are no operating systems that you can install and forget, unless they never plan to go online with the machine. They all need updating which can be set automatically. The only problem is if it requires manual intervention, sometimes updates don’t go as planned, then a roll-back might be necessary. They could try an immutable linux distribution if they are worried about screwing up their installs or something. Fedora kinoite may be their thing, or Bazzite which is based on that.

4·9 months agoI was able to play the introduction but as soon as it tries to log onto the server i get a BattleEye didn’t load properly restart client. Ohwell, maybe they’ll enable it one day for linux users, until then refund requested.
I think i’ll be heading back to Pop!_OS for my main rig. While i like Bazzite, i can’t get VR to function on it, or get my 5.1 surround sound system working. I think it’s great for a hand held, but not for a main rig.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•AMD posts highest Q1 result ever — Strong CPU sales, but GPUs and gaming trail behindEnglish
3·9 months agoGlad i already built a system and don’t have to worry for a few years about upgrades unless something breaks. Also i’m Canadian so our tariff dispositions may be different.
The software itself does not harm anyone, considering it is free software and nobody has to contribute money to use it, i don’t care. If you feel so outraged by it, fork the software and develop your own version. At least with free software you have that option, as opposed to proprietary software where you have no option.
I’m not using Hyperland personally, but i’m not opposed to people using it.

411·9 months agoGTA VI isn’t being released on PC until probably a year after console. I don’t own any xbox or other locked down platform, so don’t pay attention to it, so you definitely have a chance to make a sale to those like me who don’t pay attention to console releases.

2·10 months agoI fully believe they are working on the game, whether it gets released when the rumor says, i’ll believe it when it happens. Not worried though, just as long as i get to play it before i die, that will be just fine.

6·10 months agoI have a Valve Index and the only way i buy a new headset is with Valve Deckard (or whatever name they chose for their next generation vr). If it never materializes, VR is dead to me because I have zero interest in non linux solutions.

It isn’t fair that their store is vastly superior to mine and don’t pay developers to use it exclusively like we do! - little timmy wah wah boo hoo
