arxaseus, do gaming w What are your experiences using Linux for gaming?

For the loooonnnnngest time, I had issues running VR on Linux. And for a few years when I started off (many years ago), most games wouldn’t run. Things have changed since then however. Now I’m finding all the desktop/handheld based games I want to play; I can just play. In addition, the issues I’ve constantly had with VR now have been alleviated (albeit with some manual tinkering).

Desktop games without anticheat will just work 99/100. VR takes some effort to work, but is worth it. VR on Linux still isn’t exactly perfect either. You sometimes press something in a game, the screen will freeze and you can see/feel it for sure. But, that happens maybe once every 10 mins or so, so it’s workable since all I use VR for is VRChat anyway.

Life’s good on Linux now. Besides college, I don’t think I’ll be needing to switch to Windows at all anymore. Oh, actually, now that I remember. I run World of Warcraft through bottles. Every so often WoW updates and kills functionality. I have to rebuild my Bottle, shift my files over and then it runs again, but that’s also outside of what Steam does, so.

Besides all of the above, I think I can stick full time to Linux now. It feels wonderful having an operating system that doesn’t own you anymore.

Halo 3: ODST. You start with your squad, get separated, get back together, and then the game is over. Nothing significant changes except some sexual tension is resolved and an engineer joins the humans for a brief moment.

Mostly the pokemon fangame Pokemon Decay.

I was going to break my years long permanent quitting of minecraft to try a modpack, but Curseforge wasn’t working on my laptop and then I accidentally deleted a bunch of appimages off my device and have given up on mc since.

Has anyone here gotten into the simulation game ‘Grow a Garden’? I started playing it recently and it’s pretty addictive. I even found a handy calculator for that game that helps you plan the most efficient garden layout. If you’re into that type of sim game, I’d definitely recommend checking it out.https://www.grow-a-garden-calculator.app

That’s a really cool idea you mentioned! Sounds like a fun project. Whenever I start something new, I find the hardest part is coming up with a good name for it. I’ve been using this awesome name generator for inspiration lately. It’s great for getting the creativity flowing.https://www.bestnamegenerators.com

Yeah… As much as I love the Doom franchise I cannot in good conscience support anything that Marty Stratton has a hand in. That douchebag screwed over Mick Gordon (the guy that did the banger soundtracks for Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal) big time.

I mean just reading this detailed account of everything that happened makes my bile rise every time.

I’d say in many time travel plots it is the entire point of the story to make nothing happen.

Like in Day of the Tentacle, you want to go back to yesterday so that Purple Tentacle cannot take over the world.

Zerfallen, do games w what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time?

Only three is a cruel restriction; I grant myself at least a top four.

  • Morrowind
  • The Neverhood
  • Diablo 2
  • Hyper Light Drifter
piyuv,

I’ve tried getting into hyper light drifter but quickly got lost. Do you have any tips?

Zerfallen,

I used this interactive map to help me in some areas: hyper-light-drifter-map.de

Arguably Mass Effect 1.

You spend the game warning about the reaper threat and you are constantly brushed off. Then the bbg attacks the citadel and you fight them off.

Second game: oh that plot from game 1? Yea, that was an isolated incident by different species and not the enemy you were warning is about.

Game three: HELP!!! The friends of bbg from game 1 are attacking you have to save us.

trslim,

Mass Effect 2 kind of pisses me off, ngl. The characters are so good, but the plot is really kind of bad. Forcing Shepard to work with Cerberus makes zero sense, especially since my Shepard went out of their way to murder Cerberus employees for what they did to their squad.

All I’ve got are examples of plots where you have no impact on the plot. The world ends, or the world sucks, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
