SteamOS 3.7.6 Preview for Steam Deck released, fixing a DOOM: The Dark Ages launch issue

3 days ago | gamingonlinux.com | Liam Dawe

Ahead of the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages on May 15th, Valve have released an update for SteamOS for Steam Deck to get it to actually run. That doesn't mean it will actually perform well, just that the game will actually run on SteamOS. Good for when Valve actually release that Beta for more devices too. Considering DOOM: The Dark Ages has Ray Tracing as a requirement, it probably wasn't going to run great on the Steam Deck.

This word-game roguelike looks unique and has one of the longest names I've ever seen

Game marketing, you gotta love it. How can you make your small indie game stand out? A great game doesn't always stand on its own, so why not give it a ridiculously long name. Why am I not putting the name in the article title like I usually do? Well, it's called "If Letters Had Pants, Would They Wear Them Like This? What About Numbers? What If They Had Small Shovels And They Dug Stuff Up To Put In A Museum?" and uh, yeah that's certainly a choice that was made.
