Ah I’d love to discuss LEC for sure, but I’m always a little behind on watching, only caught up with the rest of last week’s matches today, so I feel like I’d never be able to keep up

Adorable, and looks really cool! I’m curious how it will feel to have him in game though

To be fair, “game of the year” feels like it’s meant to measure popularity, while “most innovative” sounds like it shouls measure how innovative a game is, which is perhaps why the two awards get such different reactions.

Definitely Jusant. It was just such a perfect game for me when I played it, chill but engaging in exactly the way I needed it, and something about the story just went straight into my heart unlike any other!

Ah, Proton 7 didn’t seem to help, but I haven’t tried using older drivers yet, I should probably try that next! Thanks!

Ah it did indeed show much more info! I could pick out two things that seemed like error messages, I’ll search the internet for them later but gotta run for Christmas celebration in a minute.

When starting Steam it told me “unable to init and enumerate GPUs with Vulkan” and “BInit - unable to initialize Vulkan!”, which sounds potentially serious.

On trying to start the games (and maybe at other occasions too) it told me

Glib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_setting_schema_source_lookup: assertion ‘source != NULL’ failed

I’ll look into them when I get the time, but I wanted to write them here anyway for completeness. Thank you for your help!

I haven’t tried a natively supported game, I’ll go ahead and see if I can do that.

I have tried updating the Nvidia drivers. I’m not sure I understand what you mean by recommended diagnostics problem? Thank you for the tips!

Thanks, it indeed says driver=nvidia!

ProtonDB is great, I did look at it which is why I expected to be able to run those games! Even people on protonDB that had to tinker to get it working seemed to at least be able to start the games, so I couldn’t find anyone with problems matching my case. Thanks for the tip though! If I don’t manage to figure it out with all help in this thread I might try one of the gaming distros :)

It’s a desktop! Dual-booted

I’ve heard that League is usually problematic on Linux, but it’s not a deal breaker, my computer is dual booted anyway so I could always play it on Windows.

All the games, League aside, are purchased through Steam. I have only tried these games I mention, since they are the only games I’ve been playing since I set up my Linux partition, but since not a single one of them worked at all I have assumed that’s it’s probably not the games that are the problem.

Nvidia-smi confirms I’m using 545.29.06. About Vulkan though, i l noticed now that when I launch Steam through the terminal it says “unable to enumerate GPUs with Vulkan” and “Unable to initialize Vulkan”. Could maybe that be the source of the issue then? Thanks a lot for your help either way!

Yeah, my Linux partition is Ext4! I have dual-booted my computer since I didn’t trust myself to get Ubuntu up and running quickly, haha.

Haha, when I first read your comment I thought you were referring to the first map, before you beat the Prospector, and I was confused how you spent more than 12 hours there 😆 But now I’ve actually gotten to the second act and I totally get what you mean! I don’t like the atmosphere nearly as much there, but I hope I’ll have the enthusiasm to finish the game anyway

I’ve only gotten to the second act so far, but it’s new enough for me to still have interest! I saw on howlongtobeat that it should take around 12 hours, so I hope that me being ready for that will make me last until the end.

In my search for short but awesome games, I just started playing Inscryption! I haven’t gotten very far, but boy does it spark my curiosity, I neeeed to find out what awaits

This article is about the author’s personal relationship to E3 and how it reminds him about unhealthy work habits he has, which he also thinks are commonly occuring in games journalism.

I think it’s very fair not to like the article, I wasn’t overly interested in it myself, but honestly I can’t help but disagreeing with the negativity directed towards the author in many of these comments. Go ahead and dislike the point of the article, but making a uncharitable reading about the author just seems silly to me.

The webpage link seems broken to me, but I’ll make sure to check out the video later!

Oh wow, I’m not sure why but somehow it does look great!

I was like “Ah sh*t they’ll get Guma but I think T1 might still win the fight” and he was like: (see video)

Ah, good point, I really should keep that mind when I reach level 9, that sounds really fun. Thanks a lot!
