mana, w Valve Says Counter-Strike 2 for macOS Not Happening Because There Aren't Enough Players on Mac to Justify It

The article might as well be “Valve Says Counter-Strike 2 for macOS Not Happening Because We Have a Vested Interest In Selling Steam Decks” just as Apple isn’t porting iMessage (and other apps) to Android because they have a vested interest in selling iPhones.

hoshikarakitaridia, w Unity’s CEO is out, but that still may not be enough for developers

Yeah I’m gonna give the summary of the most important comments on this:

  • Unity is untrustworthy
  • they pulled this shit knowing it would fall flat
  • the CEO got his position when he was already known to be a prick
  • shady insider trading is shady
  • the board who chose or approved the CEO is still the same
  • there’s solid alternatives

These are all the reasons why you shouldn’t go back to Unity. That said, I’m very sorry for the Devs of Unity who most definitely don’t deserve this.

hazle, w Rockstar Games' vice president of writing leaves after 16 years

When you walk into the drunk guys home for his money and kill him, but his son goes “pa, pa, pa…” I know it’s a video game, but I wasn’t expecting that. It was one of those moments where i can never forget. I felt like I actually hurt a person in my mind and kept thinking about it, still do. Absolutely the best game that brings you into the fold as a player dls 23 mod apk unlimited coins and diamonds download

mojofrododojo, w CD Projekt boss pushes back on 'conspiracy theories' against diversity in gaming: 'We live in times where anyone can record complete nonsense and make a story out of it'

Seems like the gamergate chuds are trying to make stories happen in a bunch of places.

wizardbeard,

Ugh, I hate that the actual ethical issues in games journalism got swallowed up by all the other hateful bullshit.

Like, sponsored articles weren’t being disclosed, and some games journalists were being fired for refusing to give favorable reviews to games that were advertising on their site. There were private mailing lists where behind the scenes coordination was happening to push kinder reviews of one member of the list’s friend’s indie game. White jounalists were claiming themselves as mouthpieces for minority gamers who never asked for someone else to speak for them.

Which gave cover for explicit mysogyny and hate… then further got twisted by far-right idealogues like Milo Yannopolous and Breitbart.

This would be a non controversy if they just ignored twitter.

Twitter is just the new Parler.

It’s made much worse by the games “journalists” industry paying too much attention to X. They find some crackpot spouting off controversy, elevate that shit to the moon, and suddenly other people are talking about this opinion that only lives in a vacuum.

IGN, PCGamer, RPS, Kotaku… they all live for this shit.

mintiefresh, w Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing finds

Wow, some of these are showing huge gains with Steam OS

lustyargonian, w Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing finds

Take aways:

  • Sample set is of 5 games
  • Lenovo drivers are much slower than Asus
  • There are 2 games where windows is neck to neck or better, 3 where SteamOS is far ahead

Some doubts:

  • Did the author run the benchmarks few times to rule out shader compilation. 99%ile would be helpful.
  • I wonder if it makes sense to test DirectX10, 11 and 12 games separately to better understand where Proton has an edge.
  • I wonder what all settings can be tweaked in Windows to find potential fixes (core isolation, cpu boost, power profiles).

Point is Microsoft and OEMs need to do better, however not every game or subscription services work on Linux, so in the interim time users should know what they can do to close the gap better.
