GTA 5 also worked just fine when I tried it, but I didn't care for it enough for a proper replay. And incredibly, so did BG3 and Cyberpunk 2077. On a 14 year old desktop PC that is way underspecced for either. These two push the display adapter hard enough that it reveals some thermal management issues in the driver/hardware, I need to force it to stay out of the high power states to prevent occasional crashes. Mildly annoying but far, far less so than rebooting to Windows to play a game.

Valve has done an *incredible* job on improving the Linux gaming experience, not just on packaging all the wacko Wine tricks for running games neatly out of sight and mind in Steam, but also general infrastructure work in the kernel, vulkan and whatnot.

Wow, Proton and Vulkan have come a long way. I just installed BG3 and OW2 on my Linux machine, and both run perfectly - probably even better than on Windows. Who needs Windows anymore?

You should regularly update your introduction post, so that's what I'm doing.

You can call me Bob, and I'm a thirty-something year old living on Awabakal land (Newcastle) in Australia.

I came to the Fediverse because I valued, and wanted, conversation rather than "engagement". Kindness over the rabid hatred and bigotry that existed over on Twitter.

I liked it so much I decided to start an instance. And that's where we are now.

The main thing I talk about here is video games. I'm a fan of pretty much all gaming genres, but some of my favourites from over the years are:

• Tomb Raider
• Dragon Age
• Cities: Skylines
• Future Cop: LAPD
• Transport Fever

I game on Linux!

I have a wonderful wife @Jamies, and a lot of animals. We have two cats, Pumpkin & Nutmeg, and three greyhounds, Waffle, Tim Tam & Fairy Floss.

I'm passionately anti-greyhound racing, and have fostered five rescued greyhounds in 2025 as of this post (including Floss who is a foster fail). Greyhounds are a really special breed of dog and they do not deserve the abuse, pain and needless deaths they endure every day as part of the industry.

I'm also passionately anti-bigotry, and I need to get better at verbalising it. I've watched on in shock as the world has taken lurch toward bigotry, racism, homophobia and transphobia. People should have the right to be who they authentically are without fearing being abused, attacked, or eliminated as we're seeing in the USA right now.

I'm also recently diagnosed with ADHD, which was a long time coming and a deep relief for me. I'd always felt as though something wasn't quite right in life, and that just living seemed harder for me than it is for many people around me. Understanding ADHD and how dopamine works in the body suddenly made my life make so much sense.

I'm unashamedly empathic, and will reach out if I see someone struggling. I won't take offence if you tell me to leave you alone.

Big news for Linux gamers! Valve has updated the Steam Beta Client to enable Proton by default for all Windows games on Linux. This eliminates the need to manually toggle compatibility settings, making gaming on Linux simpler and more accessible. Now, with the latest update, Proton is fully enabled by default in the Steam Beta. #Steam#Proton#LinuxGaming#GamingNewshttps://dub.sh/mCwqEUH
