Overwatch 2. Since the changes from old Overwatch, there is no real point in anything other than Quick Play, which means 5-10 minute games, and you are free to leave at any moment
I’ve been DMing a Scum and Villainy campaign, a space opera based on the Forged in the Dark family of games.
My group has been playing a few different systems together for a couple years now and this might be the most fun we’ve had. They get to cruise around space stealing, smuggling and generally being a bunch of scallywags. The campaign setting is a really solid base that I’ve been building on top of and I have so many ideas for things I want to try.
I’m jealous of your 5E campaigns. My D&D group I play with has been on hiatus this summer so I haven’t gotten to play much this year but I’m hoping we can start up something soon.
I switched in June 2021. I was a fan of libre software before the switch (I still am! Love me Krita, Kdenlive, LibreOffice, VS Code if you can count that…), and I saw that many people in that community, plus programming communities, use Linux. I heard that there were lightweight distros (my computer was fairly low-end), and a lot of customization options. I also wanted to try something new, so I ended up dual-booting W10 and Linux Mint, after trying LM in a virtual machine!
Now I have a new computer. It’s dual-booting W11 and LM 21.1 Cinnamon. I rarely boot into the Windows partition.
Its been working fine for me over the past year or so since i swapped to linux myself. The launcher looks buggy at times but thats about it. Specifically it will get stuck on “searching for updates” or somesuch while its actually updating. Just leave it to run and it will work as normal anyway.
During my own testing i got the best results with proton 8 and running the game in DX11 mode but DX12 also works. As for a distro i can recommend garuda linux, it was relatively painless to get everything working on that. Their Dr460nized gaming edition comes with a lot of handy stuff preinstalled, which i found useful for just learning about stuff when i first swapped.
A lot of the things i was doing on my pc were either done using wsl or a linux vm at some point, using windows mostly for gaming reasons. When i tried linux on bare metal again i had no issues running the games that i care about using proton or wine so i just stuck with it.
I have shity low end laptop. It was fine for w10 at first but each update made it worse. I tryed cleaning, reinstall… But then I installed Mint. It was amazing from unusable to snappy. I still use it and it is enough computing for me (browsing, office, watching movies…)
