I’d say around half of the games I play on Linux require some kind of special launch script, specific Wine version, or even different versions of Steam to run properly. It’s nowhere near as simple as people make it out to be.

Is Valve interested in a bug report?1·11 months agoHmm, good question. I’d imagine they’re very similar (if not identical.) Don’t know, however. Mine is self-compiled from source, but when I tried Arch’s LTS package it didn’t crash either.
0x0@social.rocketsfall.netto Linux Gaming@lemmy.ml•Weird freezing on Wolfenstein: The New Order. Only on desktop, not Steam Deck. Is Valve interested in a bug report?1·11 months agoI believe 6.6 is the current LTS version. A similar crash to the one you describe in the OP started happening to me in the 6.7 kernel. If you check my posts, I have a writeup on it.

PROTON_LOG=1 PROTON_LOG_DIR="/tmp/" WINEDEBUG="-all"
fixed some extremely annoying hangs during loading screens for me. Probably a 1 in a million chance it helps in your case, but who knows.
Financially the right move. If what I read was correct, it would take approx. 8 years of steady Patreon income to get to the $2.4M figure anyway.
They must know they fucked up somewhere and decided to go this route rather than get exposed for potential shenanigans. From reading comments in other communities I was surprised to see a lot of people expected this outcome, although nobody was particularly specific about why (maybe someone here can give some insight.) For the record I’ve been on team “Fuck Nintendo” after the Gamecube, but I’d take the fact that other emulators haven’t been targeted as possible hint that Nintendo got wind of something wacky going on. Who knows, maybe they’re next?

The fact that it was a mouse that ultimately sent him into the anti-Linux spiral that resulted in people being able to refund the game regardless of hours played is extremely funny to me.
If you give this guy money then I don’t know what to tell you. He detests Linux users and has said as much while still taking money from them.
I get Bad Company 2 vibes from this. Might give it a shot.
Re-Volt. Modern rewrite of the classic RC car racing game. Two decades of community-created tracks and cars to choose from. Still has an active multiplayer community, too!
Interesting read. I prefer C over any other language for game development. It’s cool to see people work with it and realize it’s still viable.
Oh, okay.
