What games have you played on your linux machine recently?
Resident evil 7 and garry's mod is my kind of thing at the moment.
I'm also trying to get silent hill 2 Enhanced Edition working, if anyone has the link to workarounds or to modded game files, tell me :^) pretty please.
I saw someone play SH2EE on the Steam Deck earlier. No idea how it works in practice, as I'm still a Win7 user.
Got curious of the WinesapOS recently.
The game does work, but the setup tool that downloads mod files and extracts them to a game folder, just doesn't work for me.
Their server might be down or the setup is just broken on wine.
Why don't they just have a torrent with all of the mod files. Fricking morons.

Arch linux is not really overrated tbh. Sure gentoo is cooler and you are considered more badass if you use it but arch is convenient and as customizable as it gets without building from source.
who replaced manjaro with arch?
Why does it matter?
Manjaro and arch are the same.
Both of them are overrated.
>Arch is overrated because...
>it just is okay?????
Filtered
You can already tell that these posters are
>A. Autistic
>B. Very defensive when you talk shit about their shitty distro (So basically autistic)
Let me just remind you that no matter what distro you will use, everything you intent to do on it will work the same like on any other distro. And you're still a virgin with rage sitting on 4chin all day.
Also, install fedora :^)
I didn't hate fedora it is good. Ubuntu just sucks because of spyware crap.
I agree with that sentiment.
Ubuntu is spyware and bloat.
elaborate how it's spyware?
I admire you guys trying to get modern games to work well on Linux, but I just don't have the time to tinker with an OS endlessly. Works great for emulation, though.
They had Amazon ads and search results once upon a time. Basically, Ubuntu tries to be successful and viable as an actual desktop, so it does the most to get normal software and services working - like account integration and whatnot. All of this is COMPLETELY OPTIONAL, mind.
see
Arch won, get over it.
because manjaro is constantly shilled despite having baffling changes that put it apart from arch
such as holding packages back for a week
not to mention the fact that it's devs are so incompetent that their software constantly DDoSs the AUR and they can't even keep their website's certificates updated
You forgot Manjaro
Arch is just a hobby distro for people who have....let us say a free schedule most days.
lol no. It literally just works better than windows. I can update everything with a few commands. One line to update my system including the kernel and I can use it WHILE it updates no bullshit slow restarts either. Bluetooth just works with no issues. It is just compatibility with games that is being worked on and stupid multiplayer shit.
>thread about linux
>instantly gets defensive and talks about windows
Because windows is the only other gaming OS. I bet even BSD basically just works from proton/wine pretty sure it has access to those packages.
I've been playing Cuphead and enjoying it. However after about 45 mins my hands start to hurt like hell, I might be gripping the controller too tight
>
Well maybe. But I don't have that issue with other things, including lifting weights.
Arch is for people that have their OS as one of their hobbies. I ran a while with Arch but found myself exceedingly babysit the OS while I also had real shit to do. So I went with Fedora instead.
>I ran a while with Arch but found myself exceedingly babysit the OS
Can you elaborate? I've been using it for 10 years or so, and although back then issues were more common, I haven't had any issues in recent years save for updates very rarely not going through, but there's always a news post about it on the Arch site when that happens.
I think the most recent one waa about grub. It can be fixed pretty easily by just using a arch boot drive as a backup and then using chroot and running through the grub stuff. Think it happened because grub changed things.
Yeah I remember that one. I didn't have any issues since they made a news post about it, and my pacman wrapper (pikaur) fetches all news posts since the last update, so I made sure to update the EFI loader and regenerate the config file before rebooting, but I can see how it could frick someone up, especially if you're using pacman by itself since I don't think it fetches the news.
World domination soon, Tuxbros.
>opt in survery
Yes linux people are less likely to divulge their entire system info.
Specifically for operating systems I don't know why Valve even makes it opt-in. Every interaction is done through the client which knows damn well what OS is on and could report it without the rest of the hardware info with no "doxxing".
We could get accurate numbers immediately.
>opt in
they almost never ping me 🙁
i always have to edit my steam conf to get it to force check
sure lmfao
Nobody except Linux users ever talks about this survey.
Did arch ever get around to signing its packages?
Yeah, 10 years ago or so.
MOM CANCEL MY MEETINGS
Went back to Windows. Ran Mint, Ubuntu, then ended with Pop. Most of my games worked, but a few had issues and too many issues with streaming and post production editing/processing.
Also, even though I am using an AMD card, I could never get the most out of it.
I know, people are going to say
>do this or that
But, for one, I don't have that level of experience or expertise and two, I just want shit to work and not have to deal with it.
>Linux
>Gaming
To be fair (since you've obviously never used it), gaming on Linux isn't bad. A frick ton of games work just fine with little to zero "tweaking."
The main genre of games that really have more serious issues are those with anticheats.
Also, almost all emulators work fine to include PPSSPP, Yuzu, etc...
Try actually knowing what you're talking about before shitposting, Champ.
you are replying to a bait
hmmm i see your point
There's some games with not so popular engines that will shit the bed with no anticheat. Compatibility is more of a popularity contest than anything, if you're playing obscure indie/japanese game or old gimmicky game that not everyone wants to run on modern OSes things get stupid. I feel a lot of people who claim that the problem with linux games is just anticheat don't really play that many games outside of what's generally expected to work these days.
>gaming works fine on loonix
>as long as you just play 15 year old games on emulators that is
this is why you and your autistic frick os will never be popular

Question: is there any way of making bluetooth controllers get detected quicker after turning them on? I have an 8bitdo SN30 Pro 2 and this shit is instant on Windows, but it takes like a whole fricking minute after successfully being connected for games to recognize it. I thought games weren't recognizing my controller because of how long it took.
Also, anyone using GNOME on x11? When you alt+tab out of a game, does it go dark and cannot be brought back unless you explicitly move the game window to a different workspace? I'm currently on KDE but I was testing GNOME a few hours ago and found that annoyance.

At least use scoop you nincompoop
Okay guys, I lied, turns out my VR headset doesn't accept LTSC anyway. Guess I'm tossing this and going to Linux anyway. Mint or Arch?
KDE Neon or Arch with KDE Plasma
what HMD?
Mint is probably a little dated package-wise by default but I imagine you can opt into more recent package repos to suit your purposes as a gamer
Arch will just have most of the latest shit out of the box with easy access to -git packages via the AUR so that's my go-to for a binary distro
If anyone missed the last thread Marvin's Mittens has finally been conquered. Linuxchads, can we ever stop winning?

anyone have any luck with the 8bitdo ulimate bluetooth? getting no response from any of the buttons despite steam detecting it as a switch pro controller
It might depend on the dongle.
2.4g connects (sometimes showing in steam) but gives no inputs on any button/sticks
bt doesn't seem to want to connect fully despite pairing
is the d-pad on the ultimate the same as on other 8bitdo's gamepads?
this is my first 8bitdo purchase
I kinda wish they had a playstation layout one with the hal effect sticks but I assume that'll be a pro 3 later
it feels pretty good but as mentioned I can't actually use it at the moment
Alright, last question, do the face buttons rattle or do does anything rattle if you shake it? And do the analogue sticks feel any different from the DS4 or Xboner gamepad? They magnetic right?
the loudest rattle seems to be the shoulder buttons when not held down
a tiny bit from face buttons
im not really a joystick expert but I want to say they feel smoother/less resistant? my controllers are older than it of course so maybe age has done this but my dualsense/ds4/steam controller/xbone/switch pro all feel like they have this initial "rub" at the middle that I'm not getting on the 8bitdo ultimate
hard to describe but middle of them all feels more resistant and also has a small audio click that I consistently hear on all of them except the hal effect sticks
Nice. Thanks bro!
I work on linux but it’s not convinient for day to day usage.
Don’t even get me started on trying to make a soccer mom use it
It won't capture the kind of gaymer who finds modding past replacing files to be a difficult task.
>Don’t even get me started on trying to make a soccer mom use it
Those are THE easiest target audience tho:
just install Google Chrome, and boom - they're set for life.
He mentioned the ultimate bluetooth which just came out. I'd expect issues for a while with it.
Sorry I'm late. The Internet traffic was backed up for miles.
Suck my dick OP!
Can't agree more. Although people here don't suck as much pop dick.
why are Archoids so thin skinned?
You mean the Archlets that modified this original image to replace Manjaro with Arch?
As a non-linux user, I find the whole distro wars thing interesting. Why do people argue about them so much? Why do they care so much about what flavor of Linux someone else uses?
humans tend to develop severe cases of tribalism
this is a universal truth
its a meme
everyone knows every distro is essentially the same
the only people who have a problem other people's preference in distros are archgays.
But other than that, linux users know that all distros are essentially the same thing.
I don't know
I use openSUSE
Everyone here talks about gayming distros, arch this, nobara that, popOS whatever, but if your distro has what you want it doesn't really matter.
>As a non-linux user, I find the whole distro wars thing interesting. Why do people argue about them so much? Why do they care so much about what flavor of Linux someone else uses?
Same thing why people argue about consoles, cars, clothing brands, watches, food, sports teams, etc. Tribalism as a personality substitute. That usually goes away when people grow up. But some people just retain that juvenile world view way beyond their 30s.
Same thing for Windows, Apple, and Linux debate. Console Wars debate, PC vs Console debate, car brands debate, pepsi vs coca cola debate, AMD, Intel, and Nvidia debate etc. It's all tribalism that's part of human nature.
>using Linux over BSD
>using either on a desktop
>using a desktop
now I know this is unconventional... but I have a computer on top of my desk as well as another computer below my desk
both are running linux
Games are bloat
Just beaten Dark Souls 3, now I'm working on the DLC.
What's the worst workaround you had to do to make a game work? For me it has to be X-Blades with an old Proton version (5.0-10). The game slowed down to a crawl normally, so someone on protondb figured out you had to use taskset to make X-Blades run on the second CPU.
Any posts claiming Marvin's Mittens works is lying. Don't be fooled Marvinbros.
It work, just some moronic proton user that expect everything to work directly.
Our year
The year is 2022, Ganker needs to start steaming games
Random tip: If you're on a desktop and notice that certain devices behave unusually, turn off or are extremely laggy (gamepads, HDs, audio-interfaces) turn off TLP, especially if you're on KDE! Install "TLP UI" if the cfg is too confusing and turn off the service.
Took me a day to figure it out.
>TLP
Why the frick would you eveninstall that in the first place when cpu-autofreq exists?
I didn't, it came with the distro.
>it came with the distro.
Which distro?
>linux
HAHAHAHAHA
I use linux for ssh stuff at work and was considering dual booting at home
Why are pop, arch and ubuntu bad
pop and ubuntu are just derivates of debian
arch isn't bad
stick to mainline distros; avoid distro-of-a-distro distros
>pop
Derivative of a derivative, why even bother when it doesn't have anything to offer that sets it apart?
>Ubuntu
Canonical are c**ts and forcing snaps is lame, the distro itself is fine if you don't mind snapshit
>Arch
You can safely ignore the opinion of anyone who says it's bad. Anti-system D evangelists will tell you to use Artix, but that's still Arch in the end.
Ubuntu is pretty infamous for its questionable decisions over the years, like the Amazon adware, Unity desktop, Mir display server and Snap packages. It's a miracle it has managed to maintain its status as babby's first distro through all of it, but it is one of the most "just werks" distros out there so it has that going for it.
Pop is just an Ubuntu-derivative, but brings nothing of value to the table, and it had that dumb dependency frickup that caused installing Steam to delete the desktop environment.
Arch is fine after you've set it up, but the initial setup process has filtered countless users, especially before it got an official install script.
Note that the original image had Mint and Manjaro instead of Ubuntu and Arch, and together with Pop they're a group of surprisingly popular distros that don't bring any benefits compared to the distros they're derived from.
>Mint brings no benefits compared to Ubuntu/Debian
Of course it does
like uh... hm.
Like you don't spend half your time on the command line and it's not full of bloatware
OpenSUSE's YaST single-handedly puts any GUI Mint offers to shame. Anything involving the command line sounds bad depending on the moron you're spooking but I'm a different type of moron.
Bloatware is irrelevant since Debian, Ubuntu, and even variants like Kubuntu either have net installs (where you roll your own on top of the base system) or minimal installs.
Mint offers nothing in comparison.
how does persona 5 run? does it have any issues?
there was a problem with the devs using a deprecated windows api or something but at this point the patch to bypass it should be merged upstream in proton
It got merged in valve fork of wine, but not merged in official wine. The current implementation have some chance of causing sava data corruption.
Mindustry.
I've never played Factario but what I understand from the steam reviews is that this is a bit more on the RTS side of things. This game is incredibly satisfying but also insanely disappointing meaning you will spend WEEKS perfecting a base and have an enemy wave crush it completely over the span of four hours while you defend multiple other fields that are under attack. It's FOSS so you can download it for free or buy it from Steam.

>linux gaming support in a nutshell
DXVK or VKD3D?
DXVK is for DX9-11 and VKD3D is for DX12, so both if you plan to play anything that uses DX12, if not only DXVK is enough
Gotcha thanks, so you can install both on a wine prefix without conflicts?
I really want to like kde, but things just don't work sometimes take the global menu bar for instance.
Yes, I know that I could just learn the shortcut, but I don't want to. I'm used to clicking on a menu and that's what's comfortable for me.
Does anyone know if there's a global menu addon alternative that works, or is it that the global menu kde addon needs configuration?
Are non-systemd distros simpler to use? Been looking at Void Linux lately.
just use nobara if you like vidya
Verification not required.
Well, it's not that. I've been struggling with setting up my user environment variables with systemd - apparently they are only visible to systemd services/processes, which was pretty annoying. It feels like having 2 environments on my Arch.

So are Fedora and oSUSE ok for vidya or are packages only up to date on debian and its derivatives?
OpenSUSE has a rolling variant, Tumbleweed, similar to Arch.
All distros generally function the same but you have doomposters saying there's no way in hell Debian can.
