Yeah… I think I’m less upset they changed the type of game… and more that it’s just creatively bankrupt cash-grab nonsense.
Hate is always foolish and Love is always wise.
Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind.
Never be cruel.
Never be cowardly.
Never give up.
Never give in.

Both Tuta and Proton are decent selections.
Some of the rumblings from proton admin are a little concerning… too early to see if they’re going to have issues or not. Their service is robust and easy to use.
Tuta seems to be a fairly good choice from a privacy standpoint. They aren’t nearly as robust of a product package and using it feels a little old skool and clunky… but they’re actively working on it… so hopefully it will change.
The biggest thing with proton is that they offer a suite of products. They look to compete directly with the goog on their offerings… so they have email, calendar, password manager, file drive, wallet, whatever else… and they’re working to integrate them. So if you use a plethora of g-products… it’s more of a smooth transition because there are more analogs to use. If you have already diversified away from a monolithic product base, then this isn’t an issue.
They need their vent cores frog blasted. 💥🐸💥
Perhaps this would work…
2·28 days agoI believe Lutris is actually in the Mint software center and could just be installed from there. If not you just need the .deb file from the github they link to and it should run like an installer… but I’m pretty sure it’s in the software store.
AFAIK it does not. You’d have to manually install it. I haven’t tried installing EA games on linux. Hell even on windows they’re a pain in the ass. App sucks… triggers virus warnings which might or might not be false. EA sucks.
Yeah not saying it won’t. OP was just trying to avoid ea app from what I gather.
EA games require the ea.app even if purchased through steam… fyi.
I love Gamers Nexus’ reviews. Good in depth coverage and I’ve been happy with their advice.
I had a Coolermaster TD500 mesh for years and it has been great. It was decent build process, good thermals. Looked nice. Sturdy build.
It held up so well I was going to reuse it when I upgraded, but ended up giving the whole pc to someone else that needed one and built a new one almost from scratch. I almost got the Antec one that GN recommended, because of price and because I wanted to get a larger case since I was adding a water cooled CPU rad. I ended up getting a good deal on a Lian Li o11 vision. I’ve been super happy with it. I sorta wish it had a top vent as well but it isn’t lacking in air flow. It allows me to put 3 x 140mm fans on the bottom, the 360mm water cooler on the side panel, and and up to a 240 on the back panel. The fit and finish was decent and the build process was a breeze. Everything comes apart to allow access to building… the back fan panel removes entirely from it’s bracket so you can attach it to the radiator or fans then clips in to place with a latch. It has copious tie downs and routes for wires to the back build area. The motherboard attachment point actually can be moved up or down to accommodate different sized motherboards and GPUs a little easier. So far my thermals have been really good, so I’m happy with it. It sits in the $120-150 price range depending on trim options.
1·1 month agoThe combo pack of Enter the Gungeon and Exit the Gungeon is also on sale for pretty cheap… and it’s a complete the bundle so if you have one or the other you’ll only pay for the one you don’t have which makes it slightly cheaper.

Yeah… it’s frustrating to see these kinds of things. Like… yes… stop doing the bad thing… but if you’re going to start a whole petition… maybe offer some feasible alternatives and solutions.
IIRC GOG is actually partnered with HeroicLauncher… so… it’s semi official to use that… and better UX.
Even cheaper at some of the third party sellers.
Even at msrp it isn’t worth it right now. They’re having issues with the melting cables still, the drivers not working properly, and things like you might just not get the correct amount of components on your chip die. This series has been abysmal. With the amd 9070 coming out I’d still wait and just look at those to see if they take this gift nvidia is giving them and run with it.
8·2 months agoKids these days were never likely to be eaten by a grue… and it shows. ;)
151·2 months agoBut but… the new era of “innovation”… by bringing back watered down versions of old stuff… including loot boxes, which ostensibly was half the reason for the Overwatch Too release. We’ll be lucky if they don’t find some way to add AI dlc or something at this point.
Time to show them the door …
