I feel like in that case one would be loudly fighting to get the law changed, rather than insisting it’s actually fine. Maybe that’s just semantics.

I do not understand what point you’re making. Can you elaborate?

I speak English, I studied Latin but have not kept up, and I know a tiny bit of Japanese and French.

Oh shit, that’s amazing! That could be a real learning opportunity for folks interested in starting game dev like me!

I switched to Mint for my new PC a few months ago. There are a handful of games that don’t work on it, but they’re few and far between.

I’m in the same boat. There are a lot of parts of the Internet that should be free, but YouTube is not one of them. Video hosting is one of the most resource intensive services around, and if we as consumers aren’t paying for it they’ll find a worse way to fund it.

What’s trust cafe?

I can’t find it now, but my company attempted to get that from Slack and IIRC it was an option but more expensive than they were willing to pay.

Dwarf Fortress!

All fair. I haven’t tried either with the Deck, though that’s more because I don’t want to try games from either platform with a controller. I have had success running both on my Linux desktop, though.

This is just my experience, but I have had next to zero issues running games on the Deck that were related to the platform. Most problems I’ve encountered are along the lines of the game being KBM-centric and it being difficult to play with the controller inputs.

The only Linux-specific issues I can’t think of are related to trying to install or mod games outside of Steam (Skyrim in particular is far more difficult to mod on Linux than I expected).

The girl in the passenger seat clearly has a look of “we knew this was going to happen”, too.

No worries, I may have just been unclear considering multiple people appear to have downvoted my comment.

That’s what I’m saying. It has anticheat, and it runs on Linux without issue.

I wouldn’t say “any” major games. Helldivers 2 is a notable exception.

Most users of Windows aren’t editing the registry, no matter what problems they encounter.

For power users that do use regedit, I’d argue there’s still a gap between that and using a shell. The registry can be edited entirely with the Windows graphical utility, after all.

Great point. I saw an interesting video recently that touched on this exact issue:

As graphics increase in quality, the desire for developers to fill spaces with clutter grows – which makes it harder to make meaningful levels with thoughtful design.

Irrelevant. This game is purportedly built using the original doom engine, while almost all other FPS games since Doom are designed with similar mechanics.
