Well it really depends how you look at it. For the devs it's better in terms of how much they get per purchase given that epic takes a lower cut than steam, IIRC 15% as opposed to 30%.

But many users hate epic as a platform seeing how it's not as mature in features, and probably just pure love of steam.

What I'm actually wondering about is if it's worth signing the exclusivity deal seeing how some people will not bother buying a game on a platform they hate or do enough people purchase for it to even out and even gain a larger profit.

Its because the other exclusives are the devs/publishers launcher. While epic was actively seeking those 1year exclusivity deals to get more users on the platform.

Aluminum cans also have plastic in them

I hate you for this pun

Ah of course, the well known Highly Transmittable Male Ligma

I'll say that while it still has features that Wayland doesn't it's not dead, it doesn't get updates yes but it still used by a lot of people for the fact that Wayland just doesn't support some stuff that x11 does. Great example I have is TeamViewer and Nvidia+KDE

Oh I'm not bitching, I'm enjoying an ad free YouTube without paying, while I do see value in the service, I don't have money just laying around to throw ever so willingly at it, while I could spend it on a meal or two.

If I can get what I need for free then I'll do it, if I can't then I'll move to something else.

Now imagine that.

Well great, I neither pay nor do I watch the ads, I'll save my 12$ a month elsewhere

Idk about amd but I do know Nvidia has Optimus on Linux that works as it should, maybe your talking about a laptop with a mux switch? Which you have to reboot no matter what when seitching

xif, to be inclusive

I doubt that he's paying a subscription for a single movie, besides he got refunded 5 extra bucks, which amounts to at least something

I'm quite happy that at least steam doesn't wipe (as to my knowledge) a game from their servers, yes they can remove it from the store front, but if you bought it you can still download and play it

For some reason DXVK makes the lava disappear in this game, at least at the final boss. If you're a new player who knows nothing about this boss you'll die not knowing why

I'd say the reviewed aren't too biased, while the gameplay itself is really really fun the score gets some points off due to server issues, the reviewers knows it's temporary, while the players score are justified for the time being, the reviewers won't review bomb for a temporary issue

The gaming industry as a whole is on a downward spiral with how it's headed, I would definitely be much more inclined to buy a much more artistically styled fun game than the new COD 52 NOW WITH REALISTIC GRAPHICS ONLY AT 3TB OF SPACE!!! PRE ORDER AND GET HALF OF THE GAME!!!!! type of bs were getting to. It really seems that indie is almost the only way to go

OR you get an adblocker

I run a dual monitor on X11 and never understood why people have issues with it? I'm by no means a Linux expert and I do run in Nvidia, I run different refresh rates. Can someone explain it to me?

Well steam is really pushing devs to use demos again, given it's mostly indie at this moment but slowly more and more demos start showing up, which is nice. One can hope AAA will do this to but I highly doubt they will

Ah I see didn't know there was a new one, interesting that they carried the name and added an L, could be a turn off for a lot of people

If I recall pollymc had a controversy about something that made everyone drop it for some reason, can't recall what it was though
