The man mentions Chimera, Holo, and Bazzite, then proceeds to take the single most difficult route to installation, with the least amount of hardware support and functionality.

This is kind of par for the course for LTT. They somehow go the dumbest route in doing things and then wonder why things don’t work or break. I’d argue that most of the gaming related immutable distros should provide a decent out of the box experience, simply because that’s what they’re supposed to do. Maybe not quite as streamlined and fancy looking as SteamOS but functionality wise it should be fine and even more functional / flexible. Though, I’m sure he’ll then cry about additional ways to install things that are too complicated, like Distrobox, ignoring his own advice of just sticking to app stores like Discover, which somehow is only valid for SteamOS.

More game devs should be like the devs of Marvel Rivals when it comes to emulation

Wine Is Not an Emulator.

Assuming the new app doesn’t suck. Vortex was pretty shitty even on Windows. Manual modding is trash because it is impossible to keep track of your mods (unless you’re a very casual modder with only a handful of mods), which means eventually you just have to nuke the whole folder and start fresh. That’s why you want to use a proper mod organizer.

Interesting, and fairly new it seems. Vortex & MO2 kept breaking for me so I kinda stopped bothering with Bethesda games.

You’re missing out greatly then because most good mods won’t be on the workshop at all.

Arguably the handheld market is also much more of a niche in comparison to a gaming desktop. In the broader context of the size of the platform the Deck is doing pretty good.

R34

Maybe try the AMD proprietary drivers

Not gonna happen, especially not for one title.

You probably want to get the new installer working. Try installing Edge WebView via Protontricks before running the installer.

Protontricks is for Proton games. And without installing the game / launcher I would not have a prefix to install this to anyway?

My guess is that the older version of the game is using a really old version of direct X or OpenGL that your drivers aren’t handling well. The newer version, being updated for Windows 10/11, should work just fine by contrast.

I think you’re confused. The game does not differentiate between the two launchers. It’s the same game regardless of which launcher you choose. Launchers are merely for downloading & updating games. I don’t know whether it uses DirectX or OpenGL but I know it uses Unreal Engine 2.5.

What distro do you use? What Desktop environment? X11 or Wayland? What’s your GPU? Which drivers do you use for it?

Bazzite, KDE, Wayland, 6650 XT, Kernel version 6.11.

I said that I tried to run it through Wine-GE, which requires something like Lutris. But what difference would it make anyway? It still installs through Wine. Also, the previous commenter did not talk about Lutris, but was referencing the two installers. Which, as I already said, there’s only two - the old and the new one, which I both referenced accordingly.

So I did my due diligence in providing information, then get called out for not providing information about the things that I already did provide. That’s just bitching for the sake of it at this point and completely unhelpful. If you need more information then tell me what type of info you need, instead of listing something that I clearly already mentioned.

There are only two launchers to choose from, so I’m not sure how much more specific you want me to be? lol

And I obviously installed them through Lutris & WINE in their standard folders. Not sure how else I’m supposed to do it.

When you’re trying to help, try to actually know something about the topic so you aren’t just giving empty advice.

I don’t use mobile browsers much, but one thing I wish FF could do is give me an easy way to move a private tab into a regular one. I have private tabs enabled by default to not pollute my history with garbage but every once in a while you want a link to open regularly and you can only do it my manually open the address bar, selecting the URL, copying it, closing the tab, switching to non private mode, open a new tab, paste the address, confirm. This is excessively long and annoying, even for mobile phones and their terrible multitasking issues.

I just never put anything on it anymore.

I use the same widget to also minimize the windows on my current desktop. Unfortunately the Wallpaper Engine plugin does not recognize them as such to unpause the wallpaper.

Steam’s year in review. Seems to be down at the moment though.

It’s immutable too, no?

TIL people still burn their isos… Just use an USB stick. lol

Sorry, I misread your original comment as opening the console not a new tab. Didn’t had the best night after clearly getting some flu symptoms this week - especially yesterday evening when I started to feel real sickly. :/

Big corpor who overpays their higher ups while ruining their most important product for years does a rebrand to show how quirky and amazing they are instead of fixing the problems at their company? Nah. I’m sure “this is fine”!
