Awesome :) Feel free to shoot me a message when you get around to it. Love to hear about people’s experience with the game

I really like the characters and the pacing of the game. They have a free demo on their site!

Check out crosscode. Similar graphics style, arpg with no turn based. More Zelda like but my favourite game tho

There’s plenty to read up on but I think starting with any is a good place. You’ll find stuff you dislike. I’d recommend setting up ventoy on a USB (it will let you have several linux images on one thumb drive) and testing out most importantly the desktop environment (DE).

Main ones being KDE, GNOME, and cinnamon that comes with Mint (which is a great first distro to test).

If you end up having questions feel free to DM me

Lots of support already but I made it switch in December last year and no regrets. There’s a bit of a learning curve getting used to a new environment but the computer actually becomes a tool you can shape to your needs rather than changing how you work so your computer will do it.

Time to shill CrossCode again :)

I think the characters are phenomenally written and the plot is fun and has excellent ups and downs.

The Kensington expert looks huge! I’m not sure I can justify getting one lol. Good to know this exists though if I decide to go down this route

How does using a trackball feel? Ive been thinking about maybe getting one but I mostly like my mouse.
Does it feel more ergonomic or is it mostly just less distance to the mouse?

I use win11 at work sadly so I’m stick with it there. I find the new context menu unusable so I prefer the old one

I’m using 7zip on win11. You need to get into the old context menu to see it tho. You can edit the registry to make the old one the default too.
No idea why it’s a registry edit but Microsoft will do what they will

Haven’t had any issues with purely mail myself. I really like it

I’m getting more into using logseq. I like it fairly well. It’s not quite comfortable on mobile though so I’m sticking to obsidian there for the time being.

I’ve watched gameplay for SOTFS but I played vanilla and maybe both DLC I think.

Everything up to the lord vessel. Your goals and fast travel completely changes how you play the game and the new areas are less interesting imo

I would say a lot of the characters don’t suck in disco Elysium but I also didn’t have the best of times with that game. It was cool and I think the zanyness they peppered into the writing was fun to experience.

I had a really hard time getting into Hades. It’s very visually pleasing, the VA is great but the gameplay feels unimpressive. Seemed I only almost completed one run but it just wasn’t all that to me

I find dark souls 3 successfully condensed down the mechanics and gameplay of the souls games but delivered nothing in terms of exploration and world building.

The lore is DS2 is very good but the gameplay feels so horrendously unpolished and a lot of enemy placement feels really bad.

If I could play ds2 with ds3 gameplay it would potentially be able to rival the first half of DS1 for me

Replying to say this is correct regarding the grammar

I’m referring to the issue outlined here. Thanks for the link to that problem, I haven’t encountered it yet but I haven’t played with Wayland/KDE6 all too much yet

Changing the scaling either zooms my higher resolution display in too much or zooms the lower resolution display out too much. Maybe the scaling is the only solution though

I can change the scaling of the smaller display to fix it but then everything is too small. I’m not familiar with any other way to fix it. I’ve browsed online to no avail as well
