Not played eq2 in a long time. Yea it ran great on linux, better than it does on Windows actually. My games of choice rn are aliens fireteam elite, monster hunter rise, warframe and swtor. I've been wanting to fire up planetside2 again but, like eq2 it's boring by yourself.
I tried cachyos for a week, the FPS was great, but the frame rate dropped more than other distribution, if i switch out of the game and come back the fps is fixed at 60fps, before switching out of the game i had 180 fps. HDR looked great on KDE, but KDE and Gnome couldn't satisfy me overall. Back on Windows 11 for now.
I dont disagree with you but RU-vid stiff me. I was close to pay out then they change it now you needed 1k followers and so on. Then was really no point trying to do better on youtube I don't want to get stiff again.
🐱 *Me-row?* squirrel brain! 🐿️ Any important files Chris gotta have off site. I wish I was neighbor hardware hard to afford but I did splurge on a WD SN850X a year ago and with 4k real sector size 4-6GiB/s R/W 😵
Hey Titus I have been a console gamer my whole life and not too long ago I got my pc 4 yrs ago. Long story short I like technology I am tech savy and I'm a competitive gamer at heart so I want all the advantages I can get so the people that have the same agenda as me won't have the upper hand on me. I'm always doing my research and improving my knowledge on pc's and I depend on people like yourself to learn new methods on how to operate my pc. Currently I'm very interested on getting the best version of linux because not only do I want the best experience linux has to offer but I really don't agree with the Enforcements windows bestows upon you, Not to mention It has a lot of unnecessary processes and I just want my pc primarily for gaming and streaming and the web that is it. With that being said I have watched other videos on how to make the transition but I'm not confident I will get it right the first time and I really don't trust my patience after seeing mutahar setup arch linux himself its pretty intimidating..
I have been using your tool in the powershell it is very helpful I'm just wondering if you will come out with a tool to download a bloatless version of linux for us pc gamers?
I've been running Linux since 1993. The unpopular truth is that at this point, if you are mostly just a gamer and not sure why you're installing Linux, besides some nebulous "I want to run free software", there is nothing wrong with sticking with Windows. This isn't the 90s or even the 2000s... Microsoft is a better company, and Windows is a better OS than it used to be. Are they perfect? Certainly not. But neither is Linux... the real power in Linux are the command line shell and text commands that give you a lot of flexibility and power in how your system functions, and a lot of ways to fix a problem you're having. But to be able to do that, you need a lot of knowledge and experience. Installing Linux and getting a reasonable amount of software (including games) up and running is not really the hard part... the hard part is when something doesn't work, and needs some manual wrangling. And at the beginning, you will not understand how to solve those problems, and when you do the inevitable search for someone with "the solution", you'll be cutting and pasting a lot of stuff into the console, which because you dont have the knowledge and experience yet, may or may not work, and you won't have the skills to know how to adjust those "solutions" to work with whatever your particular combination of software and hardware. I'm not saying Linux is bad, I'm just trying to let you know that some things will just not work. And I don't know every singe game you want to play, or what all of your software requirements are... noone can tell you "Oh most stuff just works and it's so easy!" It may work out for them that way, because they don't play any games or use any software that just refuses to work or requires a lot of finagling to get working up to snuff. If you do install Linux and go through the growing pains of getting competence with the various subsystems involved, writing scripts, editing files by hand, etc... be dedicated, and sticking to GUI interfaces for things like software installs and all system configuration will only get you so far. This will be a major learning curve and growing pain. That's why I say to people new to Linux: if 90% of what you do with your computer is play video games, and you don't wanna spend hours, weeks, days, months, and years of brute forcing solutions until you get your feet under you... maybe reconsider. Some people don't really want to be bothered with things that need to be jerry rigged to work. Windows has its faults, but it is a much easier system to use. People like to say Linux is easy to use, but I question how much they're actually doing with their computers. If all they do is browse the web and play games that are 100% compatible with Steam's Proton compatibility layer, sure, it's pretty easy. Until they run into a game or particular software that doesn't work right, or crashes, or needs a lot of manual "fixing": and then they will be very frustrated.
Oh and most people who started running Linux in the last 10 years or so, will tell you to install Arch. It requires a lot of manual work for no good reason (except pedagogical, I suppose) and relies on a huge amount of 3rd party packages and a "rolling release" system which means you are always getting the latest upstream of any piece of software that gets release. Lots of people think they want this, but they really don't. At any rate, I do not; I want a relatively modern, stable base of software revisions that doesn't move too awful fast. I suggest Fedora or Ubuntu.
@@mercster I appreciate your input and this is the type of feedback I needed for my current situation and with every said point you made then it looks like I will be reconsidering thanks bud.
