https://www.polygon.com/2018/7/15/17574248/aliens-colonial-marines-fixing-code-typo-ai-xenomorphs yep, a code typo broke the alien AI. Unfortunately for that game though no amount of delays could’ve helped it, there were many more problems besides the AI. The AI was just the biggest problem.

Not really true at all. If all you care about is raw performance, then that’s debatable, but if you’re talking ease of use then Linux is fine. Just grab a distro with an Nvidia ISO like pop_os and install, nothing else left to do.

I keep seeing people mentioning NixOS, what’s so unique about it that people like?

Didn’t they just get busted for essentially promoting child focused gambling rings or something along those lines?

Can’t up vote this enough, Nobara is great for gaming.

EndeavourOS, it just works really well and never breaks. The only time I had an issue was when I was using the Zen kernel and it locked up installing league of legends and watching a YouTube video at the same time. Using the mainline kernel though gives me no issues.

I think a certain controller model was more susceptible to stick drift than others. I think it was after the horizon forbidden West bundle where they started selling newer controller models with more reliable sticks. Both of my ps5 controllers have been dropped, thrown, played after and while eating by children and they’re still fine. I have also have a dualsense edge controller for myself though so I don’t really care what the kids do to their controllers. Grand total of 3 controllers and none of them have drift.

I wouldn’t call that a proper repair mechanic. They had that in BotW but it had to be a certain type of weapon from a certain type of octorok at a certain place at a certain time of day only once per blood moon. I’m guessing this is a slightly less restrictive system but it’s still not really an improvement if your weapons disappear from your inventory like BotW.

Any weapon durability system without a repair mechanic is terrible. There is no strategy to the fights just go down the list of weapons you currently have and hope to kill the enemy before you get to the end of the list. Sure you can use a weapon for the right situation but it’ll break regardless and there’s no way to reasonably get a new one. I essentially speed ran my way to the master sword because of the weapon durability only to find out that even the master sword “breaks”, what a crock of shit.

As for the divine beasts, they weren’t complex at all, they were a shitty representation of a digital rubrics cube and the Ganon bosses were copy/paste with a few changes here and there, nothing complex. The only challenge were the lyonels and even those could be cheesed one way or another.

The building is just too gimmicky for me, it’s so out of place for a Zelda game it ruins the whole experience. I get that it’s the feature and a lot of people like it, but it’s just not for me.

The remaster of wind Waker helped out, the sail you could get to go faster and always be sailing with the wind makes a huge difference. The original release though I would agree.

That’s great, but as long as the master sword “drains energy”, shields and other weapons break, and dungeons are lacking I’m gonna pass. The merging and crafting mechanics are cool, but I’m not playing Zelda Minecraft edition, I’m trying to play a legend of Zelda game. Building makeshift helicopters and hover crafts aren’t really what I’m looking for in a Zelda.

I honestly don’t know, I’ve had people tell me it’s BotW 2.0, so I’ve stayed clear. The weapon degradation system is what truly pushes me over the edge with these games, and from my understanding TotK still retains that mechanic, so it’s a hard pass for me. I’ve also heard there are real dungeons also, so idk what to think. I’m probably going to skip TotK altogether, I’ve currently been playing baldurs gate 3 and powering through the guild wars 2 story so I’ve got plenty of games to play and I don’t feel like I’m missing out.

Legend of Zelda breath of the wild is the absolute worst Zelda I’ve ever played. I’ve played and beaten the following: OoT, MM, SS, ALttP, ALbW, LA, Zelda 2. I’ve almost beaten wind Waker and twilight princess, so you could say I’ve played a few Zelda games.

BotW is a mix of assassins creed, Minecraft, and Zelda characters with shit dungeons. The divine beasts are garbage replacements for dungeons and shrines are not a replacement for dungeons either, it’s just a terrible Zelda, but a decent open world game.

How is MX? What do you like over other distros? I see it at the top of the distrowatch list all the time but I’ve never really found anything special or stand out with the distro.

Yeah there’s just not really a big enough reason to move away from Ubuntu unless you’re really wanting to avoid snaps (which I completely understand)

This is gonna be an unpopular opinion, but Linux mint. It’s great if you’re just getting into Linux, it’s absolutely terrible when you know what you’re doing in Linux. The old package base and kernel just kills me sometimes. I get they want a stable base and use the lts versions of Ubuntu, but my goodness it’s always so far behind it’s not even worth using if you’re on AMD. Thankfully they’ve realized this after so many years and are releasing an EDGE iso with updated packages and kernel and LMDE is getting a version upgrade.

Aliens invading my planet, I sleep. Aliens invading my spacecraft, real shit.

This is good information! I tried to give OpenSuse an honest try, and while I would recommend it over RHEL any day in enterprise environments, I just don’t like it as a daily driver workstation.

What do you think flatpak and snaps are? They’re at the very least containerized applications. Why would I install distrobox when I can literally install the same apps without having to screw around with installing a third party tool from a GitHub repo? That just seems like more trouble than it’s worth. Not to mention you have to trust the GitHub author which really is no different than trusting the AUR package maintainer.

Fedora is ok, idk what it is but I have never had a good experience with Fedora. If you need to install anything outside of the default repos it can be a major pain and while yum is ancient and rock solid, it’s replacement with dnf, is terrible and slow. OpenSuse is also rock solid but I didn’t like the install experience and while yast is good, you’re still limited by the repos. Also OpenSuse is getting rid of, I think it’s called leap or something, which I think tumbleweed uses as a base. It’s unfortunate but I think the best option for most new Linux users is simply the latest Ubuntu. I hate snaps as much as the next guy, but their packages are fairly up to date. Outside of that you have the niche distros like MX and Garuda, but even those are just Debian and Arch. The other option is LMDE by the Linux mint team but idk how often that’s updated.
