I've been playing it from a CD-based installation for a few months now. I probably have a couple of game patches installed as well.

The last I played it in October the AI was a bit wonky but I didn't run into any level bugs that prevented me to proceed like I had with earlier builds.

Jedi Outcast works pretty well natively in Linux. I played a few years ago using https://github.com/xLAva/JediOutcastLinux

Every time I think I want to play this I look at reviews that call it a backpack management simulator. I don't know what to believe.

I've got a Deathadder Elite mouse and I appreciate the control that openrazer provides. IIRC the default RGB was a tad annoying to me. I also like the DPI changes. It can be done via buttons on the mouse too but I have more fine-grained control in polychromatic.

As for build quality mine has been running ok for a few years with no issues. So sample size of one.

Thanks for the link. Soldier of Fortune is very tempting. I doubt my Loki version launches any more :-(

I haven't played for a few years but it was fine when I did. I felt like it did the Elder Scroll's universe pretty well and had a reasonable quest to grinding ratio. I'm just not that into MMO's and lack the time to be a good party member. I tended to play solo which was fine as long as I was careful. I only grouped up to take on bosses.

Quoting: EhvisI always played the Linux version (with Vulkan enabled). Haven't tried 1.0 yet because it is currently too hot in my computer room.

I tried with the opengl renderer and the video was very washed out and generally awful looking. I remember earlier Linux alpha builds had similar problems. It looks great with Vulkan. I hadn't tried that renderer in a long time. Played a few hours last night and it's working great.

So thanks for the tip.

Quoting: kit89Do the above gog links fail to open for anyone else?

Looks like they redirect through a tracking site. My network and browser config also blocks it. When I click on it the window flashes and I'm still on this page.

So the first link, https://af.gog.com/en/game/dragons_dogma_dark_arisen?as=1636858786, redirects to https://track.adtraction.com/t/t?a=1578845458&as=1636858786&t=2&tk=1&url=https://www.gog.com:80/en/game/dragons_dogma_dark_arisen

The DMCA allows for triple damages. It may not seem so but they probably got off relatively easy by settling. I imagine very big numbers were being tossed around and it's very scary. I know because I was sued under the DMCA a few decades ago and thank my lucky stars I didn't suffer the same fate as Gary Bowser.
