Valve keeping up with the trend of "worst kept secrets". You need an invite to join the alpha but since everyone who owns it can refer their friends, it spread very quickly.
I've been playing it the past few days and it's honestly very fun. Still a bit rough around the edges (especially in terms of balance) since it's in early access, but it has serious potential to be dota 2 levels of popular.
For the unaware, Deadlock is a 3rd person shooter MOBA. It feels like a mix of Dota and Overwatch/Team Fortress. Nobody is allowed to share footage or screenshots, but obviously with so many playing there's a ton of leaks out there.
Somebody needs to tell the games team that they make their own operating system. This is Windows-only. WTF.
It's almost as if they are a for-profit company that doesn't want to waste development time on an OS that have significantly fewer players to sell to and will choose to optimize for Linux as an afterthought.
I use Arch, btw and play only on Linux, so I'm not being biased, just speaking truths.
Yeah but Valve, who is making this game, made SteamOS and the Steam Deck in house. It's their own product. It would be a monumentally stupid move to release a first party game that doesn't run on their own first party hardware.
It's still niche. You're living in your dream world, not reality. It's the entire point of proton - not to have to create two versions of the game. As long as it's compatible it'll run nicely on their hardware.
