I love the idea of this one. Best way to get a scope of what people like and always up for new recommendations.
I tend to have at least 2 games on the go; one story driven game and a general play type game. At this moment those are:
Having picked up the Mafia trilogy on Steam a few weeks back for £12, I decided to play them through. I finished the first one last week and forgot how much I love it back when it was originally released back in 2002. The remaster is really well polished and it felt smooth (even on my SteamDeck). The 2nd one, while remastered does not feel as polished but is still a great storyline. In fact, there were parts I had forgot that directly link it to the first game. Both great games. I know the 3rd was not the best in terms of storyline but was a great play so will be on with that one next.
AOE4, what can I say!?! This game never dissapoints. It is a great game to just kick back with when I want a more relaxed gaming session. To be fair, it is either AOE, Command & Conquer or Civilisation that meet this but AOE is the game of the moment.
I started playing Dredge but struggled a little to get in to it. The reviews are good and a few friends of mine rave about it so may go back to that one at some point. I think I did not give it the time it needed as it was around the time I was about to go on holiday. The game a visually pleasing and atmospheric and is the type of game I would go for. Oh well, sure I will give it another go.
It frustrated me when Reddit made the initial decision to screw over app developers. Having done dev work in the past, I know the time that goes in to them so someone asking for a little money in return is the least we can do. But no, Reddit just say “Screw you guys”!
As if that was not enough, they are now showing that they really don’t care about the many moderators that have painstakingly put years of ‘free’ time in to building these communities, the same communities that are the foundation of Reddit!
I am sure we are going to see a lot more of these admin takeovers in the coming weeks and it is the very reason I am over here and why Lemmy is seeing the incredible growth curve. Long may that continue.
I did the classic, jump in at the deep end approach, and ended up with some distro hoping for a while. I then settled on Fedora.
Why? It did everything I wanted to do and did it well. I found some distro so easy to setup but harder to maintain, some really slick but problematic with updates and apps. Fedora, for me, just worked.
All that said, there are various factors to consider, including your hardware configuration. Some distro just happen to work better on some hardware specs, especially when considering your graphics.
I have a similar usage to you, covering a little bit of everything including gaming and dev and, so far, everything continues to work. So much so, I am thinking of switching my gaming rig over to Fedora in the coming weeks.
