@lemmy.worldThe direction Windows 11 is taking is terrible but i've tried on multiple occasions (even this morning!) to game and consume my content on Ubuntu or Fedora and i run into so much trouble, that ill have to stick with Windows 11. I have been using Ubuntu at work for the last 10 years though as web development is great on it.
Issues i have:
Maybe one day, but for now Windows is probably just the better choice for me and gaming (on a laptop). At least in Windows 11 they now allow you to not group the taskbar by default..
I currently own a S23+ and had a OnePlus 6T before that and Nexus 5X before that. I wouldn't be bothered by the Samsung bloat. You can uninstall nearly everything. Set the default apps you want to use and hide the rest. You have this configured quickly and then you will never be bothered by it again.
The default Pixel 8 launcher doesnt even allow you to remove the huge Google search widget, which bothers me a lot more. I find One UI pretty vanilla feeling to be honest. Don't notice that much difference from my OnePlus 6T which had a fairly vanilla OS.
But HD2 has way more players than DRG ever had on it's highest peak (46k vs 268k). I suspect that many gamers really like the less cartoony graphics
Thats what i thought. I think Glitchington is mixing up sites like G2A. Greenmangaming, Fanatical and Humble bundle are authorized resellers as far as i know
Appareantly this site only lists legit resellers: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/helldivers-2/info/
Its really immersive/atmospheric and plays pretty good on PC. Not sure yet if i like it more than Deep Rock Galactic, but ill have to give it some more time. It has the same gameplay loop as DRG, but is more tactical. It's either way a good coop game especially considering it just launched! Theres some startup issues with connections getting lost etc, but those will get resolved within a week i think. Theres some MTX in there which i don't like but it's easy to ignore without missing out on things. I wouldn't let that deter you.
Bought it on greenmangaming for 33 EUR which is more reasonable than 40 EUR in my opinion
X4: Foundations. Just started a new playthrough with the Kingdom End DLC.
Its the closest to Eve online, except being offline, singleplayer, pausable and moddable. It supports many playstyles and can also be played semi afk, which i like. At times it can be incredibly frustrating because the UI is complex and the AI of your fleet members can be very stupid.
Still i enjoy just doing my thing, playing for a bit, save and continue later. Not a lot of games support this. Others that do for me are Factorio/DSP and Drox Operative 2
Never made the connection. I think its a bit far fetched to get worked up about, but PC Gaming Race could work i guess
