Probably not the thread to get too in-depth, but for Linux gaming take a look at your game library. Anything in Steam listed as Steam Deck verified should run regardless of distro. Most games listed as Playable should also run just fine as this generally pertains to things like small fonts, no default controller support, Deck's on-screen keyboard not popping up automatically and these issues won't matter for desktop gaming. I basically only buy games through Steam that are Deck verified or playable for years and I barely boot my Windows game computer anymore, but I also don't game like I used to either.

The biggest "gotcha" is going to be anti-cheat. Hardware and driver support is a bit different than on Windows (especially for AMD GPUs) but again, probably not for this thread.

What is happening in that clip that is funny?

We were trying to figure out how to get the RV up the elevator when we realized we were parked on top of a mine. We then attempted to blow up the mine so we could use the elevator and it detonated unexpectedly sending one friend across the map, luckily the water just happened to be right there saving his life.

I laughed until I cried multiple times tonight. Really good puzzle/adventure game with friends.

Some screens.

Genuinely have no idea how people can have fun using cheats when your opponents don't. In what way is it fun to beat someone when you're playing by entirely different rules than them? It's not the same as playing physical sports because everyone is using AAS or HGH in professional sports. Might be draconian, but adults who get caught cheating in video games should go to CECOT.

I hear you my American Inventor. I've never understood it myself. I stopped playing MP unless I know all the peeps I'm playing with.

What do you play currently?

I don’t actually think they should go to CECOT, but it’s definitely distasteful.
Married to a woman that doesn't game but leaves me to game. She also doesn't understand 'bitch I'm in the middle of a raid wtf do you want I cannot pause' so single player games with a pause mostly. Replaying FF16 w/ all DLC on my PC currently. Played it on my PS5 before I gave it away but I didn't buy the DLC.

Your wife also thinks raw white onions with butter is a delicacy.

Wait, are we talking raw onions cut into discs, slathered in butter or something? That's kind of fucked up.

I mean raw onions are good, but if you're going to introduce butter they need to be caramelized.

I do like fresh grown spring onions just soaked in salt brine, how many of you dip them in cracked pepper. Best with good sharp cheddar and summer sausage and crackers. That's something my grandpa used to always eat, and like most grandpas, they typically knew best.

yeah but she usually encourages me into building a new gaming PC so good with the bad and all.
My wife is the same whether it comes to me having bought my recent computer and playing some games with my buddies, or going out fly fishing. She understands that having hobbies is a healthy deal.
