Basically nvidia shadowplay for linux
This is why Steam is as popular as it is, they just release features that people like. Sure GOG doesn’t have DRM and Epic Games gives a bigger share to developers but Steam gives players what they actually want.
GOG has DRM for many titles: see Galaxy. As I understand it, it isn’t as pervasive as Steam, but is necessary if you want multiplayer on many titles or care about extras like achievements.
Cloud sync also requires the drm, but the advantage that gog and itch have over steam is that for most games you just get the executables and you’re good to go.
Tbf to cloud sync, nothing is stopping you from using your own backup/restore service with your drm-free titles compared to the other features that Galaxy offers.
Steams custom controller profiles alone used on Steam Deck are killers for me. Nothing else amounts.
Steaminput is a massive deal, it supports gyro, remapping, profiles, and extensive customization. XInput can’t compare and the epic games store relies on developers for everything. That’s the reason why I will always pick a Steam Controller over an Xbox controller.
Now if they would only release a Steam Controller 2…
I wish, the first one still stands as the best controller imo but it still has so much that can be improved (USB C, dual thumbsticks and trackpads, two back paddles, improved haptics, better gyro, better ergonomics, etc).
It’s hilarious to me that Epic will never introduce features like this, and also complain Steam has a monopoly, as if they’re at all comparable
Awesome. OBS has never prioritized Linux performance, curious how this will compare.
To be honest, OBS is way more advanced than a screen recording tool. It’s basically a live program director
Yes. For simple screen recording there is Simple Screen Recorder.
SSR sucks though
When OBS is way too powerful(and powerhungry) SSR is great
