Sorry for you as it sounds really sad.

I hope it’s just temporary and you’ll find a more comfortable balance soon.

These brands selling their own refurbished products is great news.

It gives you the ability to still support them while not creating directly more e-waste and benefitting from a cheaper price.

Yeah I’m always surprised when people are complaining about the cost to buy (not to produce) a game nowadays.

Where I live, games are way cheaper than they used to be during the Playstation 1 Era and it’s now really easy to buy used games online.

Of course if you buy every season pass or special skin for they used to game, it ends up more expensive.

Well I meant more something like you driving a car fast in an open world and having objects appearing in front of you because everything isn’t loaded yet.

Or landscape disappearing from your rear view mirror in racing games in order to save some memory.

These things wouldn’t cost anything to solve if we gave up some graphical fidelity.

I think it’s crazy that we always want prettier games when you still have visual glitches like cars disappearing in your rearview mirror, buildings and textures appearing late, screen tearing when you make your POV spin.

I don’t really need way better graphics, but I’d need these things gone as they take me out of my game way more than no raytracing or a slight fps drop.

I think these things would be easy to solve if we didn’t always get better graphics.

A Surface Go 1 has been my daily driver for the last 4 years on Fedora.

I’m mostly using it docked to a USB-C screen but it works fine by itself. I’m also using a keyboard so it’s mostly a PC and not a tablet anymore😅

But I’m really happy with it and it works almost flawlessly.

Yeah but the consoles still have to be cheap enough for people like me not making the jump to PC gaming.

So I’d say they have to be careful about the hardware price compared to a PC.

Nothing beats the ease of use of a console, but I can tell you that if prices starts getting close, I’d pribably buy a PC that I can use for way more than gaming and watching movies.

I loved Mass Effect but I ain’t so enthusiastic about what I’m seeing for now..

Clearly the main protagonist looks a bit cheesy..

I’m running Linux mainly on a Microsoft Surface Go 1 and on a 2012 MacBook Pro occasionaly, so no friendly Linux machines.

On the Surface Go, except getting it to boot on the USB drive and some bluetooth problems everything works flawlessely.

On the MacBook, except a wifi card problem once a year, everything works fine.

I’m running Fedora Workstation and was using Ubuntu before (Fedora suits me better). Maybe you should try one of these distributions before trying a more difficult one.

I’m really encountering less bugs than on Windows at work.

I’m intrigued about this one. I’d still want another Last Of Us though.

If it’s the first time Last Of Us 2 comes out on PC, I don’t see the problem.

It’s a masterpiece and I’d want everyone to enjoy it.

But, now, Naughty Dog really has to do something else than remasters.

I’d love a third Last Of Us, but it could also stop on such a great note.

Thanks for the info 👍

Is it something enabled by default or are you forced to go through a lot of customization to arrive to this result?

I love GNOME and the way you just open everything in a full screen window and just switch workspaces easily.

I find it so much better than just switching windows the way I have to do on Windows 10 at work.

I might be tempted to try to have the same workflow on KDE one day as personnalisation might a bit too limited on GNOME. Does anyone know if you can do it?

It makes me feel so nostalgic.

I still remember trying something alien called Linux on an old Dell Laptop (and also on my Playstation 3) I had inherited from my dad's company. It was good that everything worked out of the box because I had not technical knowledge. I can't know for sure but I guess it was a version of Ubuntu between 6.XX and 8.XX.

Then it was Linux all the time, until having a Windows dual boot in the mid-2010 before switching back to Linux fully at the beginning of the 2020's.

No more Ubuntu though since I fell in love with Fedora.

Clearly, sometimes watching a TV show or a Youtube video is way less demanding than gaming.

I don’t know if it’s good or bad, but it’s my reality.

I also know that I really love immersing myself into story driven games, so playing a few minutes before cooking the meal isn’t an option.

Nah Joplin is way more practical for me, but I open every bookmark in advance when I’m gonna have many tasks involving Firefix to do.

Why?

Yeah these games are great, although clearly not perfect.

I enjoy them but some buggy technical aspects in the second one are quite distracting.

But you have a lot to explore in an interesting way.

They remind my of the first new God of War but in a Star Wars world.

Well you can use iTunes on Windows, so it’s not as if it was only on MacOs.
