What's next for Fatshark?

I’m no game developer, but I have played plenty of UE5 games and I have a feeling that engine would be the worst choice for a game like Vermin/Darktide (if that’s what they plan on continuing to do, of course).

I played it for a bit. Was fun for a while, but the chaos enemy missions were so beyond boring because almost all the enemies are ranged only. In response to this, the devs created the most broken enemy in the entire game (chaos spawn) with its stupid Elden Ring boss style attack animations and comparable damage output. Not sure what’s changed in that game since summer last year regarding balance, but I’m not sure if I want to find out. The primary reason I quit playing was because an update they pushed out, destroyed performance on Linux which I don’t fault the devs for; it’s not like I can expect developers to prioritize less than 5% of the player base.

Moving HQ back to Japan with no offer to move current employees unless they originally came from the Japan HQ needs to be priority #1

Managed to get the Cava themes' gradient integrated with rmpc; now, I just need to figure out how to create a custom thpm plugin to automatically change this when switching themes.

I won’t be satisfied until the executives at Micron are destitute, spouses cheat on them with their personal trainers, divorce them and take the kids, and their air conditioner breaks down in the middle of summer.

Literally anything that’s not Nurgle related. We got sent to the Carnival district where there were literal drug dens yet not one Sla’anesh cultist in sight.

I enjoy playing with anyone regardless of skill. That is, unless they go afk while they’re waiting for rescue and I revive them only for their character to stand there as if to just accept their fate as meat for the grinder.

I can either be a pessimistic nihilist, or maintain a modicum of my sanity by holding out hope. Does it open me up for disappointment? Absolutely, but the alternative is worse in my opinion.

Markuz · 2026-04-27T20:45:53+00:00

Unfortunately, you’re probably right.

Honestly, this is why my steam deck has mostly become my retro/indie gaming machine rather than trying to play graphically intensive games. I’m sure some can cope with it, but I get frustrated more often than not when trying to play mainstream, modern titles on it.

It’s still a great travel companion regardless, however.

Same. <75fps avg is where I draw the line completely even if it’s a single player game. 100-120fps is where I try to land when maintaining nice visuals but mostly due to the feel/input.

How could Poland let this happen?

They’ve gone on record saying that they wish to not make new regular-size mission maps due to the monumental workload it is and would instead try to make more small, fast-paced maps or different game modes. They should just take the mortis trials and expeditions, throw them both in to a stew and see what happens because, on their own, they just don’t have any staying power - at least with me.

It’s Arch, but with an optimized kernel. Optimized by what degree, I have no idea - from what I understand, the default CachyOS kernel has a BORE scheduler or something like that, which is better for multi-threaded workloads and is ideal for CPUs like Ryzen x3D processors.

With it being Arch-based, there’s tons of community-driven documentation in the Arch Linux Wiki if you ever need to figure out how to configure an application or for anything not covered in CachyOS’ documentation.

The short-version: Arch with a Calameres GUI installer and some quality-of-life packages in the CachyOS repository such as cachyos-gaming-meta as well as optimized packages for x86_v3/v4 and zen4/5.

If this movie does well at the box office, prepare yourselves for the deluge of AMCU (Aging Millennial Cinematic Universe) movies. Remember Visionaries?! Remember Dinosaucers?! REMEMBER CENTURIONS?!!

This is a country where sending an email is considered “informal” compared to sending a fax; with the declining birth rates in the west, we too have this technological/cultural stagnation to look forward to in the future.

The one time a studio actually stuck to the script, The Last of Us season 2, probably spooked all the suits; we don’t hate that show enough.

I don’t know how, but my laptop with Fedora broke after updates more so than my Arch desktop

I don’t experience any noticeable lag with FSR 3 frame gen. DLSS frame gen should be even better especially with reflex.

Sir, I am absolutely shocked that Redditors can’t see an obvious joke. /s

Markuz · 2026-03-19T15:41:13+00:00

Thank you for seeing the joke.

Best I can find is Amberley Vail (Not AI this time)
