    Looks like someone cast “Escape Velocity”, which I think is a druid spell.

    That’s what it’s supposed to look like. Follow the blue curve until you reach the forest of crazy jagged polygons, you’ll have to kill the perfectly rendered npc once you make it through. After that, walk forwards through the interminable void until you reach baldurs gate 3, who you’ll have to kill to beat the game.

    I can’t remember if it was BG3 or another game I played recently, but I remember the Linux version sucked and I used the windows version and proton instead and it was way better.

      I genuinely thought this was a KSP screenshot at first glance lmao. Larian could even take a page out of Bethesda’s playbook and call it a feature. OP hit the ultra rare Illithid Nautiloid spacewalk sequence - only .01% of players have seen this!

        No, Kitten Suace Agency is the spiritual successor to Kerbal Space Program and the screenshot looks like gameplay from Orbit in these games.

    Weird I played it on my deck. I don’t have that many hours into it though.

    I didn’t even know BG3 had a Linux build, yet another W for Larian. On that note, this has been my experience with the majority of Linux builds. Most of the time it’s easier for me to just use proton, because when I see the Linux build I 1. Have to make sure it’s actually working properly and 2. Have to make sure it’s an up-to-date version; I’ve had multiple games with an old outdated Linux build alongside a shiny new windows release. Anyone else have this experience? Am I doing anything wrong?

      99% of the time Linux native builds don’t work right, only work on arch or some other bleed edge build, only work on Debian lts or some other beyond ancient build.

      Or just randomly explode for no reason.

      Frankly it’s a big part of why a lot of people just say fuck native Linux builds. Just target a preset known system. Which is what windows builds basically are.

      Steam runtimes, proton, etc. its more reliable, less likely to break and going to actually be reasonable for anything short of a billion dollar company to hope to provide support for.

      Seriously as much as native Linux would be nice. We are 20 years from it being remotely realistic. So please devs just focus on proton compatibility and we can talk about native Linux later.

      Outside of like vintage story and factario I can’t think of a decent Linux native version. Even then they break more frequently then their windows version or just flat out don’t work with mods or have other issues.

      this has been my experience with the majority of Linux builds

      well this Linux build was made for the Steam Deck in particular, so it should work very well normally.

      No, the Linux native support is dog shit with most of the games. They release one fucking prototype client or whatever and then never update it again but its being listed as Linux native, fucking degenerates I hate them so much, why on gods earth do I have to play the windows version of some games while they offer a Linux native client. LISA is one of those fucking games if you read this and work there or at any game studio doing this shit I hope you suffer in hell where you belong.

      TL;DR yes its normal
