I LOVED that game as a kid. One of the few games where I enjoyed both vs and coop campaign stuff

Wasn’t MW open-world?

😢

I’d play NFSU in modern graphics! But apparently linear games are not allowed any more and it always has to be open world and come with seasons and DLCs and all that.

Loving Bazzite so far! I think I’ll make the switch on the desktop rig too

Can’t we ever have software that just keeps working? Password managers are like the new RSS readers.

1. search around for a good one
2. find a nice one and start using it
3. they add stuff you didn’t want and slowly make it worse
4. they’re bought up/ abandoned/ otherwise become unviable

Back to 1)

I’d totally be fine with a rough “tier list” to start with. I know there are 2d games that are quite demanding, especially badly optimized indie games. And I think half life 2 can basically run on a potato despite still looking decent. So simply judging by how fancy it looks probably isn’t always going to work.

This sounds like a great way for me to have fun!

… by fiddling for hours to get crazy mods running to then never play the game 😂

Thank you to all! I was aware of what bazzite is but this might be relevant for some lurkers. I am indeed mostly interested in what my hardware can do. I don’t game enough to warrant a hardware upgrade right now. Once I do want to upgrade it would be good to see “what should I go for to be guaranteed a good experience on the more modern games I am curious about”. My desktop is aging and I might go laptop-only at some point and live without the latest AAA games, there’s a huge back catalog!

Thanks! This is very useful! Now, if this functionality could be combined with the UI of ProtonDB … 🤔

This is a great resource but tells me nothing about whether or not I’m likely to have a good experience on my device.

I was so sure I saw someone playing it in a video comparing performance between distros :/

That sounds like what I should play around with on my old X220 - thanks for also recommending a finicky option. I want more Linux in my life :)

No one picked up in the photo editing part. I guess I’ll look around a bit how the state of OSS tools is today. And what’s available as a flatpak maybe.

Thanks, that’s a great explanation! So in my terms, Bazzite is what I should consider for my daily driver, CachyOS might be worth fiddling around with on my “just for fun” thinkpad :)

Interesting, I’ll have a look! Any ad-hoc comments why it’s better than Cachy OS?

I’m starting to get the data hoarding crowd more and more. We have been taught this dream of “the internet never forgets” but people missed to mention that it’s on the average Janes and Joes to make sure that is the case. Corporations want the internet to forget because it’s better for business.
