Sorry man, your going to get down voted like crazy just because you posted something bad about Linux.

Good info thoughm

As someone playing this on a 3080 with no major issues, just turn off ray tracing. The game really isn’t that bad once you turn it off.

More info dropped on this if anyone is curious, although it’s still pretty confusing what maintenance mode actually means.

Not surprised but unfortunate. Me and my friend were playing it for awhile, but you couldn’t share quests so we ended up dropping it after maybe a week since we barely could actually play together.

Understanding the proper way to install apps is the biggest one. Make it clear that .exe files are for Windows only.

I wouldn’t try to go further than that, I feel that’s the biggest thing a general user really needs to know.

That’s odd. I’ve used a variety of 8BitDo controllers on a few distros through the years with no issues. I don’t have specifically the Pro 2 though.

I don’t try to criticize people for pirating games. They’re expensive and a lot are greedy.

What I do tell people though is support good games.

If you end up playing a pirated game you really enjoy, you should try to support it if you can, even if it’s from one of the bigger publishers. It’s basically our only way to truly tell a publisher that we like something and to keep making it.

Not counting un reasonably priced re-releases though. I totally get that (looking at you Nintendo for Galaxy 1+2)

Me and my buddy got gamepass for a month to try BO6 on our PCs. We didn’t end up keeping it after that (we just don’t care about newer cods that much), but there’s no way we would have tried the game otherwise for the 70$ to actually purchase it.

I wasn’t giving advice for pirating it. You’re on your own for that if you can’t afford the $7.00 to get a copy from the play store.

No issues using SMB with my Unraid and transferring to/from my main Fedora 42 KDE PC.

There’s a launcher called “Minecraft Bedrock Launcher” that’s been working fine for me.

If this was added after launch and actually added new content, yeah sure (maybe), but at launch? No thanks, I just won’t buy your game at all.

ALVR is a thing for Quest (and maybe other?) headsets. I’ve been able to get it to “work”, but it was a pain and would constantly have random issues.

I ended up just dual booting windows for VR.

As someone who games on Fedora as my main OS, we need to stop pretending that Linux gaming is all sunshine and rainbows.

Yes, fuck Windows, and it probably did fuck his boot loader, but it doesn’t invalidate his other poor experiences he had with the OS.

Hell, I don’t think that even that was necessarily an invalid experience just because it was caused by Windows. Dual booting is a thing people have to do, especially if they want to play the games that just don’t work on Linux. Even if you don’t like the games personally, they are huge and a lot of people want to play them. Even my main Linux group dual booted recently to play the BF6 beta.

Being elitist and calling people stupid because they had a bad experience will do nothing but hurt Linux gaming. Instead of calling JayzTwoCents stupid because he dual booted for a valid reason, explain alternatives that he could have done to prevent the issue. If we want to grow as a community, we need to provide actual helpful feedback, not by being toxic.

I’ve been meaning to try the game again. Haven’t really touched it since launch.

You can! They have replacement buttons for whichever layout you want for fairly cheap. I’m using the original ultimate Bluetooth with an Xbox layout.

I hope they update some of the original Ultimate 1 controllers for support. I love 8bitdo controllers, but I’m not going to buy a controller over it, and I constantly have had issues with my SN30 Pro buttons sticking.

This is probably not to place to ask about getting a Nintendo console. Most people here are hardcore pc. (which is fine, but definitely biased).

My personal recommendation is this:

Do you want to play new Nintendo games? Get a switch 2.

Want to older Nintendo games and multiplats? Get a steamdeck.
