@ScreenShatter @atomicpoet Imho everyone who talks about quality in games should define how they define quality ;) I for example value story and game mechanics over graphics and usability perfection. So Balatro / Knights of the Pen and Paper or alot of the Square Enix Classic Releases on Android still are high quality games for me. My advice would be before you argue you start to define what quality means. After this you can much better measure and argue.

@kandoh @simple i would rather say they are aiming for full control over the product ;) How dare you used a bug in our game to your advantage - we block your acces to the game and of course to continous rising prices , cause there is no second hand deals ... let's hope that steam and gog will be really long available an people still buy games even it's much more expensive already ...

@MrLLM @Womble

Question ... did someone once do a study comparing a regular fulltext indexed based search vs ai in terms of energy consumption ;)

Second ... if people would keep using "old" tech - wouldn't that be better for employment of people and therefor for social stability on this planet ?

@AwesomeLowlander @princessnorah

Secret World Legends
Catherine Classic

Just 2 examples which with default Proton have at least "issues"

@Kaput @simple Maybe Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

@BarbecueCowboy @tonytins

I would also think that https://www.vintagestory.at/ is in a good shape to compete for a great minecraft like game ;)

@ChaoticEntropy

https://fediverse.party/en/peertube/ before you complain understand the technology behind. Everyone can basically provide a instance and it's decentral. As more people participate / as more instances are provide as better for all and as cheaper. If you really want to step away from services like youtube and want to have it sustainable (aka not depending on business) than it's your best choice. If you just want someone else to have the saying and replace one company with another good luck.

@ChaoticEntropy @atlien51

you found your way to lemmy but you don't know about https://peertube.tv/ ;)

What are lightning cables are use for? Are really hurricane hunters now trying to get energy out of lightning?

If the pain is not enough to replace a headphone with a new one , you most likely aren't ready to change for linux right now. There will be more you need to learn, more which feels different and more which won't work first try or even requiere you to rethink or replace things.

@IceFoxX

I have used nvidia on my private PC on linux for more than a decade now. They provided a stable usable 3D acceleration in KDE1 when no other company did give a fuck about linux and voodoo had only their glide interface on the console.

As a customer i am very sad about the current state on linux and as a customer my next graphics card might be an AMD. The reasons are not only the driver but also that amd provides just more memory for the same money and i think that nvidia currently is cheating their way throu the consumer market (for real imaginary AI Pictures is a performance improvment ???).

But and thats why i disagree hardly with the "fuck nvidia" ... they deserve the respect for the support much longer than any brand out there and therefor they deserve a respectfull way to express where they imho do wrong.

@nuko147

Thanks alot for the information. I understand the pain points and cross my fingers that nvidia finds fast the issues of their drivers being slower in vkd3d https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/directx12-performance-is-terrible-on-linux/303207/58

If you ever wanna try again you should stick to a gaming distribution like nobara. A lot of performance can also get lost just because esync / fsync aren't configured correctly in the distribution. This should be fixed in the near future too , once https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge/_requests/7226 is merged and people use modern kernels aka 6.14.

Thanks again for the informations.

@MattTheProgrammer @ThePicardManeuver

Since you wanna Game using network anyway did you ever thought of Cloud Gaming (aka Geforce Now) ? That way you don't have a "unsecure" device in your network. From a security standpoint even an device only used for gaming is a security risk ;)

@nuko147 @ThePicardManeuver

May i ask why gaming on linux isn't for you ?
