Lenovo Legion. If you pick a configurable one and remove windows they'll lower the price accordingly (sometimes 100€ for windows pro). Some models offer Linux pre-installed.

I will look into that!

Out of this list I’ve played (in order)

Fez

Outer Wilds

Return of the obra dinn

Blue prince

Outer Wilds was my favorite of the bunch. I didn’t know anything about it and went in blind. It’s gotta be in my top 5 favorite games, if not number 1.

Subnautica felt similar due to the exploration element. I wish there were more games like this.

Minnels,

A lot of games get ruined from not going in blind. At least for me :/

berty,

Outer Wilds and Subnautica was stunning. One of my favorites too. I loved the exploration aspect to it, they kind of got me exited very similarly. Did you like Obra Dinn? I tried blue prince but didn’t have the patience although I heard great things about it.

AbelianGrape,

Obra Dinn and outer wilds are two of my top 3 games ever made. If you liked outer wilds I’m pretty sure you’ll like Obra Dinn.

Blue prince is great until you “win” the first time. After that, imo, it starts falling off. Slowly at first, then harder. I have completionist friends to whom I have given it negative reviews. But if you just want to win and explore the space for a while, even potentially hundreds of hours if you don’t use guides, it’s fun. Don’t start a game day aiming to work on something specific. Work on what comes your way, and it is easily possible to make substantial progress every single game day.

Megaman_EXE,

I did really like Obra Dinn! I thought I might not due to the theme of the game and the color pallette but those worries were gone after playing it. It was a lot of fun piecing the story together. I played both Obra Dinn and Blue Prince with my spouse and I think it made it more enjoyable for me because I tend to hyper focus in on like random details or I’ll look at the big picture and forget other little things, so it was fun to play and experience them together.

I enjoyed Blue Prince but the repeating structure of the game started to wear a bit thin as you progressed. I kinda wish there was a toggle to ensure quicker completion once a person completed the main objective. I didn’t bother to go and finish the extra bits n bobs because I felt like it was just too much busy work at that point.

Ooo, I think it would be:

  • Adventure
  • (maybe?) Language and Translation

Chants of Sennaar was great! Had an absolute blast trying to work my way through it. I probably sounded like I was playing Baba Is You when trying to wrap my head around the glyphs (?) and the messages they try to convey.

Figuring out the symbols, their meaning and then using them properly to translate between different people was surprisingly rewarding and fun. I wouldn’t have minded if the game had a bit more gameplay, but at least it didn’t overstay it’s welcome.

bob_lemon,

I loved the grammar differences between the languages. Like where the negation glyphs go, or pluralisation. It always made me happy when I struggled with the translations, and then renumbered stuff like “Bards place the subject before the verb!”

Deyis,

Chants of Sennaar is by far one of the best games I’ve played. I had an absolute blast getting it to 100% and wish it had just a little bit more to do or vocalisations of the various languages.

morbidcactus,

I also really liked Heaven’s Vault, really recommend that as well. Tunic is probably one of my favourite recent games, genre wise very different but still in that translation category.

Chants was probably in my top I played last year, absolutely loved the soundtrack too.

Not enough learn action adventure games to my liking.

Definitely checking every single one of these though.

@nekusoul@lemmy.nekusoul.de avatar

Agree. Outer Wilds is my favorite game and all the others in that section aren’t far behind.

That is, except for Ultros, which is a game I’ve heard about before but didn’t know it belonged in this category of games. I guess I know what I have to check out next.

Well, thanks for bringing Epigraph to my attention!

Fez Is the only game I ever 100% in my life and it is a well polished masterpiece.

I own hundreds of games and put around 4k hours into Factorio but still recommend Fez to anyone.

I am saving this post because I sense a lot of “potential” here.

apotheotic,

How long did you spend on the monolith puzzle before looking it up?

Socket462,

Can’t remember but I definitely used a guide to reach 100%

apotheotic,

Yeah, nobody has actually figured out how that puzzle is solved so you can’t actually get max completion without data mining or a guide :P

Take a look at Slimbook, I’ve had one for many years and very happy.

thanks!

PSA: Don’t buy a gaming laptop. They are trash. The plastic case will melt, the wifi card will come loose, the battery will die within minutes. A steam deck is truly your best option.

And never ever buy alienware. Screw them in particular.

Holytimes,

Literally every higher end laptop gets called a gaming laptop… It’s a nothing term. Even the absolute least flashy laptop with no RGB and is basically just a glorified Thinkpad with a 4080 mobile in it gets called a gaming laptop just cause of the 4080.

Saying don’t buy a gaming laptop basically means you can’t buy literally any good high end hardware full stop.

It’s a short sighted and frankly stupid piece of advice that just hurts people.

The Alienware bit tho, that’s spot on. 100% fuck em.

happeningtofry99158,

whats with alienware? bad quality?

neukenindekeuken,

Overpriced, over-hyped consumer hardware that’s loud, obnoxious, and not that much better than significantly cheaper options.

You’re paying for the brand, and a bunch of obnoxious LED lights that are plugged in to every spare inch of the thing.

@simple@piefed.social avatar

Correction, don’t buy a cheap gaming laptop. There are plenty of ones like the lenovo legion and rog strix g16 that have good build quality and will last you years.

The ones with crappy plastic and overheat regularly are usually the ones under $1000

happeningtofry99158,

Why no Alienware? Is it because they’re extremely expensive and overpriced?

Deconceptualist,

Yeah. And Dell bought them a long time ago so they would have a ‘gaming’ brand. Just buy a regular Dell machine and save money, it’s about as simple as that.

@Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I have a gaming laptop and I haven’t used it since I got a steam deck.

HollowNaught, do games w Would you like to playtest a new indie game? Just completed first playable version of my psychological horror/moral choice simulation.

…would I be able to get in on the playtest?

Well, I consider Alyx to be HL3, given how well they embraced VR’s strenghts and limitations.

Emperor, do games w Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM?

Tuxedo Computers ship Linux 😀

I’d recommend something AMD if you want fast and stable graphics drivers.

Holytimes,

As long as it’s a 3xxx or 4xxx Nvidia card honestly its just as good as Nvidia now as long as you arnt being dumb and trying to use Debian or mint or something that has a massively out of date kernel on a new laptop.

orochi02,

So is mint Bad for newer machines?

Emperor,

I had a 3060 and the support for wayland was just terrible.

Loads of games didn’t work on proton or ran terribly.

Moment I switch to AMD on Linux I have not had any crashes, and games run out of the box with good performance.

Just my experience, there is no real reason why most people need nvidia GPUs on Linux. The vram is small, and prices often don’t compete well with AMD.

CUDA and other media stuff is usually a strawman as most people literally never it. If you need that desktop with SSH is much better value for money.

Katana314,

Hm. I’ve got an Nvidia card on Cachyos, and it’s all been fine so far.

I had an issue where an upgrade broke my drivers, but that turned out to be my fault from poor understanding.

j_z,

I run a tuxedo both at home and for work. Build quality and support isn’t that great but you can’t get more specs for the money

frongt, do games w Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM?

Dell offers Ubuntu on some models.

You might get better answers in a Linux community, since that’s the focus of your question.

happeningtofry99158,

Yeah good point, is there a laptop or computer community on lemmy?

sugar_in_your_tea,

There’s a Linux gaming community, that’s probably where you’d get a better answer.

etchinghillside, do games w Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM?

Linux preinstalled is going to remove a lot of candidates. If you relax your requirements to include known setups/components that work well with Linux then that would help expand your options. The amount that Microsoft gets from the preinstalled license is likely negligible.

happeningtofry99158,

The only reason I’m asking linux is I don’t want my money taken by microsoft. I believe most laptop like dell would work with linux well enough. If I’m good with windows preinstalled, which laptop would have the highest ratio of quality / price?

etchinghillside,

Do your research because it varies by year and components. But if I was going for new I’d be looking at Asus TUF or Strix at the 1.4k price point.

artyom,

I was going to suggest Framework. You can buy them without any OS at all. But it’s going to be easily >$2k with a GPU.

Holytimes,

Your option is basically only framework if you want good hardware.

If you don’t mind low end stuff then you have plenty of options.

happeningtofry99158,

Framework laptops are really cool, but the modular design seems to make them more vulnerable.
