  • There’s quite a lot that can be gleaned from the depots for the game on steamdb: https://steamdb.info/app/1422450/depots/

    I don’t know if this information is already public but here are a couple of quick inferences I made by looking a the files. I’m not overly familiar with Valve’s intellectual properties so I don’t recognize any specific characters or franchises.

    There’s likely a hero named Yamato who has the abilities:

    • Shadow Form
    • Power Stance
    • Infinity Slash
    • Healing Slash
    • Flying Strike

    There’s a lot more hero information but that’s the top one in the depots.

    The game might be called “Citadel”, or it may have just been called that internally at Valve. The reason I suspect that is because of there appears to be a game folder called “citadel” which appears to be the main game folder.







  • You should go for a distro that matches what you want out of your system. You want stable? Find some strong LTS distro like Ubuntu. You want ULTRA STABLE? Go for an immutable distro. Do you want to use your system for gaming? Go for a distro with wide gaming support, built-in drivers with options for proprietary drivers.

    It’s less about what base distro you’re using and more about what you like about that particular flavor of distro.

    For example, I use my PC for gaming mostly, but also coding. I switched from Pop! (Ubuntu based) to Garuda (Arch based) and I love it because it’s really good for gaming, comes with Mangohud, Gamemode, Steam, Heroic, controller drivers, graphics drivers, etc, all optionally pre-installed. I also really like KDE apps because they’re performant and slick so I got the Plasma version.

    Anyway, yeah, focus less on “this distro is Arch based” and more on what each distro can provide you as far as your personal tastes.




  • My favorite tips are:

    You can filter the output of a command. Most commands return parameters like (output, error) so you can filter them by number like 1>/dev/null will filter the output and only show the errors, and 2>/dev/null will filter the errors and only show the output. Also if you want a command to run silently but it doesn’t have it’s own built-in quiet mode you can add &>/dev/null which will filter everything.

    Bash (and other shell’s I assume) can be fully customized. In addition to the .bashrc file in your home directory, there are also a few common files that bash will look for like .bash_aliases, .bash_commands, .bash_profile or you can create your own and just add to the end of the .bashrc file ./YOUR_CUSTOM_BASH_FILE_NAME

    Inside that file you can add any custom commands you want to run for every bash shell like aliases and what not.

    I personally often use a simple update command like so alias up='sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove -y' which just makes running updates, upgrades, and clean-up so much easier. Just type up and enter your password. I have previously added in things like &>/dev/null to quiet the commands and echo Fetching updates... to make some commands quieter but still give some simple feedback.

    There’s also the basics of moving around a terminal command as others have pointed out. The easiest and the one I use the most is if you hold CTRL+LEFT_ARROW the cursor will move entire words instead of one character at a time. Very helpful if you need to change something in the middle of a command.
