My whole thing even more than (gaming which is huge) is having to relearn how to make everything work. I was (i honestly have to say ‘was’ ugh) nearly a windows ‘power user’ for awhile, maybe peaked in my skills getting hardware running, programs and games running until win7 came out and shit just worked.
Nowadays when i go back to fix shit, or even just change a setting i have to relearn how to do it. Am i crazy or do they keep moving shit now? Fucking why? I have windows cuz inertia at this point but if i have to Google how to change basic Windows settings then there’s not much stopping me from tossing a match on Windows and walking away
Meh i had to restart overwatch a few times because it has a bug where sometimes miving my mouse in any way causes me to look up and spin counter clockwise at an insane speed… So yeah theres that
For sure, but just as an example I tried starting Black Mesa on steam yesterday, which has a native release, but had to tinker quite a bit to get it working. Unfortunately I think it’s often the case that the native releases gets forgotten and lags behind the windows/proton releases
This seems dated. I’m not saying there is no issues but man has it improved so much.
Improved =/= working 100% of the time
Ah, yes, not 100% of the time. You know, like Windows. Thanks for the laugh.
I use Android btw
Gotta get that Bingo Blitz!
Implying that windows is stable, lol

So much shit keeps moving… Usually for NO REASON, even on Android run into it all the time.
Correct. There are still games that don’t work because there is actual work being done to make them not work.
I wonder where the problem is… must be Linux’ fault.

It has but for multiplayer games and especially a game you never launched before there can be some friction.
It’s different for different people. The distro, the hardware, and the game can all have an effect on how often problems arise.
