Linux gamers on Steam finally cross over the 3% mark (www.gamingonlinux.com) angielski

Free Windows 10 support ended for most people this past month, and the trend line of Linux usage has been quite clear leading up to this, as people prepared for the inevitable. An increase in Linux usage is also correlated to a drop in Chinese players, which did happen this month a little bit, but Linux usage is also trending up...

psx_crab,

The issue with that is, people have no idea what these “choice” even mean. SteamOS is SteamOS, Windows 11 is Windows 11, MacOS is MacOS, but Linux is a big list. If pushing adoption is the key purpose, the manufacturer need to pick one that they believe is reliable and in active development. Just one. All these editions will very likely cause choice paralysis, which lead to people deem it as “too complicated”.

Also Valve will not likely go that path again.

psx_crab,

It speak more about this age of consumerism, regardless how evil one company are, people will still buy their stuff because they don’t care.

psx_crab, (edited )

Tried switching to Mint yesterday, it’s a struggle as the guide kinda failed to mention some detail that i have to google a bit, and the result is it fail to boot(not a bootable drive error). Might try again tonight or this weekend. Honestly i can’t see mass adoption if it’s this PITA to get it working(not plug and play like windows), unless it’s provided by the manufacturer.

Edit: so one of a few struggle i have is the guide failed to mention i need to create an efi partition, i have to google that for the recommended size.

Another is the “primary” and “logical” partition. I have no idea which to chose so i put everything on primary, not sure if this cause the issue.

Then another one is what should i mount my “rest of the partition” with, i googled it and all the answer given is “you should probably read on what is all this about to get a sense what you should do” when i just want some simple answer to what should i do with that, like in Windows, C is for the OS, and you put everything on D or something like that. It’s akin to asking me to read the whole physics chapter when i just wanna know what speed a horse could run.

Then the final nail in the coffin for the session is “not a bootable drive”. Then i just plug in my windows ssd and go on with my day.

psx_crab,

I tried installing it on a new ssd so to separate window and linux stuff(and also upgrade from a bunch of very old hdd), the guide recommend me to select “something else” and create the partition accordingly. I follow their official guide here

…readthedocs.io/…/install.html

At the time i’m installing, i still have my old drive plugged in so in fear of messed thing up badly and had my whole data erased, i chose to manage the partition myself. Should i unplug everything other than the new drive, and have the installer do it automatically?

psx_crab,

What is saying “not bootable drive”? You should make a primary partition on the target drive.

When booting, after the bios screen it give me a black screen with that message, and refuse to boot.

Also, even if you don’t have tpm, you may have some sort of secure boot preventing non-windows drives from booting.

How do i navigate this? My machine is build around 2012-14 so not sure what its in. I had someone build it for me so i’m not sure what’s in it.

psx_crab,

I see, i’ll have to try that tonight

psx_crab,

Did you already install Linux Mint on a drive and your computer is now refusing to boot from it?

This. I already tried setting the bios to boot from that particular drive and it gave me this message. Might have to try let the installer decide the partition like another comment suggested to rule it out, and try turning off secure boot if that fail.

psx_crab,

Yeah, my plan is to isolate both OS so it doesn’t interact at all. Was thinking about wiping out the old drive after backing up after installing mint, doesn’t seems to work out lol.

psx_crab,

Yeah, i should totally done that.

psx_crab,

Do you have anything else to add? Because being unhelpful doesn’t solve my issue, but to inflate your ego. Others tried, and i acknowledged my problem and will try other way to see if it helped. And you’re here to bitch about my unsuccessful attempt.

psx_crab,

Still on Silksong, second run. So far still finding new stuff and alternative path. Dancers is still the best boss design so far.

psx_crab,

That one is kind of a remaster though, this one is a proper remake. Not sure if it’s necessarily.

psx_crab,

Back in the warcraft 3 days, i would always play either tower defence or hero defence, or hide and seek, anything but the RTS the game supposed to be.

psx_crab,

I heard Mint is closest to the window experience, not sure about steam ready though, i didn’t know that is a thing i need to watch out for. i think i might try that first

psx_crab,

It’s moddable?

psx_crab,

Very likely once…in a while, like that stupid fullscreen win11 ads on win10.

psx_crab,

Your comment really just shout “i’m living under a rock!”

psx_crab,

Nobody care about your credentials though, your “people still use microsoft product” comment is the one that sounds like you’re living under a rock.

psx_crab,

Probably yes, because AI might change thing too much while right now they can just tweak minor stuff and resell it.

psx_crab,

Wow, i can totally see why people might have issue with the graphic. Hopefully there’s an option to ease the contrast.

psx_crab,

I mean i wouldn’t mind having dating sim with Wolverine, but going frenzy at the front line is his specialty.

Maybe Dispatch might fit your criteria?

psx_crab,

Next up, Dennis Kirby

psx_crab,

Can’t believe Valve didn’t make real game. CS, TF2, DOTA2, all fake.

psx_crab,

The issue with valve is not they couldn’t do it, it’s because how they develop game. If no one pick up the project then the project just die. That’s how hl2ep3 die. If they run like how every other company is, we would already finished the series.

The flip side of that is we get stuff like Steam Deck, Index, Alyx, and Proton.

psx_crab,

Err…isn’t ff7remake episodic as well? Wdym bringing it back

psx_crab,

Because once you finished the story there’s really not much sidemission for you to play, and the world suddenly feel very empty without the excellent characters. I quit the same way.

psx_crab,

[Gabe Dislike That]

psx_crab,

Yeah, like the optimisation of the game for starter.

psx_crab,

I can’t believe no one buy silksong and cuphead because it is 2d and it isn’t hyperrealistic. Sorry team cherry and MDHR, you guys failed.

psx_crab,

Slop is a real word not made exclusively for ai

psx_crab,

That one is a gem, Gearbox can’t compete with this. B2’s only biggest asset is the voice actor, the animation when two character interact is worst than Oblivion.

psx_crab,

Yes. It’s in the top selling list in Steam and have 300k concurrent player top. People give him power to say that.

psx_crab,

Well tbf the boss can end me in two strike, and i have to bitchslap them 15 time to get to second phase.

psx_crab,

Ho boy you’ll love Father Ariandel and Sister Friede, they have both.

psx_crab,

She only did that on second phase with Father Ariandel, but yes, guessing whether there’s another phase while your estus is empty is certainly more bullshit than healing 🤣

psx_crab,

This is a marketing piece for Borderlands 4, consist of randy reading script.

For the topic they can find different dev from indie to AAA or ex-AAA dev that currently work in different studio or Rockstars talking about making sure the horse testicle shrink while cold, but no it’s about randy reading script. Where’s the essence? Where’s the juice?

psx_crab,

42 years ago

I heard it’s been in development for a long time but didn’t know it’s this long.

psx_crab,

I like how the comment there is basically AVGN quote.

Also, seriously, with VR being a thing now, why don’t they make Virtual Boy 2 with Power Glove 2 as a controller?

psx_crab,

This remind me that i haven’t played crosscode and it’s been forever in my wishlist now.

psx_crab,

It honestly bugged me that people think there’s like a ceiling price for 2d even though it require artist to animate frame by frame, but 3d it’s unlimited even though you could tweak everything far more easily.

psx_crab, (edited )

first you say that the price doesn’t depend on the production expenses and can be as big as the seller wants

Huh? When did i even claim that?

Edit: also even if i said that, which i didn’t, let’s not pretend selling a 2d metroidvania at $30 or even $40 is as same as AAA studio justifying selling their game at $80. It’s like a different issue altogether because one is actively firing people and exploit cheap worker and giving their CEO a fat bonus while claiming inflation, the other is people pretend a dimension of their artwork is the limiting factor.

psx_crab,

Yeah, It really depend on how detail you want it to be, both is hard, but somehow people will pay one more than the other.

So the smart thing to do here is have a 2d metroidvania with 3d artstyle, and suddenly the price ceiling is removed lol (bloodstained is $40 on release)

psx_crab,

Or 3d pretending to be 2d like Deadcells

psx_crab,

Or final(1)-final update?

psx_crab,

Yeah, PS, Xbox, and Nintendo all have server issue due to this.

psx_crab,

Ya, that’s where they crash their own server, people able to get the game but can never log in or find a match or something due to their own unprepareness. This one crash all the major storefront.

psx_crab,

I use USD to put it into perspective. Saying RM49 doesn’t have an immediate impact 😅
