Well I feel stupid. I'm pretty oblivious to homm and don't really follow it. My bad for not looking too deep into it. Reason I assumed it was a Ubisoft game is because I saw somewhere on YouTube Ubisoft promoting the 30th anniversary. And Ubisoft is the current IP holder of homm. I never in my life thought Ubisoft would license out an IP they own to a non Ubisoft team.
Edit: didn't realize it was from hooded horse. Never in my life I thought I would see Ubisoft license out an IP they own to a non Ubisoft team. I feel stupid for this and I'm sorry.
I actually gave it a try by just disabling the forced compatability and then using __GL_13ebad=0x1 %command% in the launch options. it works with dlss. only issue for me are the frame drops that pretty much make it unplayable. i saw a post somewhere, someone was saying more power was going to their gpu on the native build. i think that's what's happening to me and its causing some throttling. on proton with vulkan, the game runs fine for the most part.
I'm confused. It's a Linux native build, but they call it steam deck native. Does this mean it's not optimized for Nvidia since steam deck is AMD hardware? I'm fairly new to Linux, so the wording is throwing me off.
From what you're saying, it sounds like you have to be in a public lobby first, then hop into private for them to get your id. Can they get your id without ever being in the lobby or any contact at all? Currently you can just go into single player and start a private lobby. Idk how the enhanced edition does, I'm assuming it's the same. I haven't played in a couple years, so getting into a private lobby might have changed.
It feels like they've been acquiring a lot of studios recently. Hopefully it doesn't crumble all at once. And hopefully they don't force LE to put slop monetization into the game.
Didn't they acquire game informer? Does this affect them too?
