  • But no I don’t remember seeing the default “great on frame page”. And I distinctly remember thinking “surely this is the default page”, and I backed an the way out and opened the store fresh. No dice.

    Huh, that’s odd. I wonder if that’s a newer update? (I’m opted into the client beta IIRC. Obviously you shouldn’t have to do that to find games that work on the new console you just bought.)

    But yeah exactly, the whole point in searching for VR games FROM THE FRAME ITSELF, should be to show you games that are compatible with it natively. Not games that require a computer, and to stream to the frame.

    Agreed.


  • So I agree that Steam’s UI is… not the best in general. And the “Great on Frame” list could be way easier to find on the desktop client. That said, at least for me, when I open the store page on the Frame itself “Great on Frame” is the default page, and then if you scroll down a bit there’s a list of tabs for different categories, one of which is VR. You can also go to the “VR Titles” page (which has a dedicated button in the Frame’s store on the upper left) and each game should have a little icon in the top right indicating how it plays on the Frame. (✅, ❔ or 🚫)

    Definitely agree that the VR + Great on Frame titles should be highlighted better though. Isn’t that the whole point of the thing?







  • I tried Tuesday’s and was a bit disappointed since the optimal strategy was sort of trivial and cut out the entire course. I liked this course a lot more though! There were a lot of tricks to incrementally improve your score and I spent a while whittling away at it.

  • Small sample set aside, the performance differences here are much bigger than I’ve seen in previous linux comparisons. Something has to be off right? Curious if anyone is able to reproduce these results.

    Unfortunately the reviewer doesn’t seem to mention a bunch of details about how the games were actually played such as, critically, which version of Proton he used. CachyOS ships its own version of Proton which pulls in a bunch of bleeding-edge features with significant performance impacts. I’m not sure if that Proton is used by default or not though; it may depend on the specific launcher used and configuration. Without knowing that, it’s going to be difficult to attempt to reproduce his results.
