Same. Pretty sure I own every Bethesda rpg right up through Fallout 4 and Skyrim. I just couldn’t be bothered with Fallout 76 bullshit, and the handful of my friends that played Starfield said it was just sad.

I don’t much care what they release next. It won’t hold a candle to BG3.

Now it’s free to travel the world!

That looks suspiciously like a building to me.

Inching our way towards Skynet…

Awesome. The lack of cosmetics for real money was the only thing holding this game back…

Ahh so you guys are also playing Deadlock!

That thing doesn’t have a nurturing bone in its body.

Maybe you’re right, I did play a LOT of Apex so maybe my brain misfired on this one, but I was playing Deadlock the other day and one of McGinnus’ lines instantly made me think “Damn, that was Commander Shepard!” I’ll have to listen closer next time I play and see if it’s really Bangalore I’m hearing.

99% sure she voiced McGinnus in Deadlock.

With their nose.

Which are technology and science, respectively.

Stop giving them money is about the only thing the average person can do.

Good, I wonder if they removed it for Xcom 2 yet. I haven’t played that since they sideloaded that crap into my steam install.

What’s the easiest way for a motivated amateur to get that set up?

There really isn’t an easy way. You’d have to run the Windows VM within Linux then assign the PCI device (your GPU) to the VM. Look up gpu passthrough if you really want to dive into it. I find it much easier to just throw a second drive in the machine for a Windows install and dual boot. If you want to dual boot with Windows, make sure Linux is installed first and on a different physical drive, unless you want to be sad later, and by sad I mean learn how to unfuck your Linux install after Windows overwrites the bootloader due to some random update.

Welcome to the club! I did the same thing earlier this year, although I ended up moving from Mint to openSUSE Tumbleweed after a couple weeks due to needing support for some bleeding edge hardware.

Thanks to Steam / Proton it’s been relatively painless!

Be skeptical and don’t get scammed by this person.

Well if there was a tank inside that house it’s fucked now!

Not sure old boy set the timer right on that one.

I can’t imagine a different distro would be any different.

BZZZZZZZZZZZT I’m sorry but that answer was not correct. Next player!

Seriously try some of the other distros and you’ll have a much more pleasant experience. I already recommended Tumbleweed in another reply but man, anything but Arch is gonna be an improvement for somebody trying to make the switch from Windows gaming for the first time.
