Kinda cheating, since this game (hell, entire series; linking my fave entry) has kind of a cult following in Central/Eastern Europe.

Gothic II

Gun in my ass

Never bothered with Queen of Cards quest, as the walkthrough of that is… Sizable, to say the least. Also, there’s only one relatively decent reward out of it (Doomtrain).

As for CC: they are a source of all rare cards besides the ones Queen has. Thus, if you want to have Vit/Str/HP Ups - they’re your best bet (also, getting enough of those makes Omega Weapon fight a breeze, you can reliably kill it without ever reaching Megido Flame and foregoing Holy War usage).

But yeah… Triple Triad is fun, especially since it translates to sth that will impact your game.

EDIT: also, you can get 3x100 Flare on your entire party on the first disc, but it’s a major PITA to get (iirc, 300 Red Dragon cards, so good fuckin’ luck). So yeah… Triple Triad brekas the game if you have the patience for it 😄

EDIT 2: also also, Queen of Cards is available at the crash site on Disc 3 as well

I struggled to find things to learn because I installed it and had an out-of-the-box windows experience

And that’s a good thing! Non-technically-inclined ppl are wary of instability issues and having to work with the terminal to fix their daily driver. If the OOTB experience is good and the UX is comparable or better than Windows - they will be more likely to stay.

If someone is accepting the fact that shit might go sideways, is willing to learn through experiencing issues first-hand or simply likes to spend time fiddling with their OS to find the perfect setup for them - that should be the Arch- and Arch-derivatives audience.

Tbh, while it is funny out-of-context, I encountered the same exact thing (and I can guaran-fuckin-tee the offender used copilot for this).

It’s not funny to be on the receiving end of this, ESPECIALLY in professional environment, where you should not react like that 😅

House of Eternal Hunt

Dance Devil Dance

Well… It’s difficult to even say wtf is going on there 😅

It has entry in WineHQ that the license won’t activate, so… Yeah, it’s effed

2 flavors of Fedora with KDE on it:

1. Aurora-DX for some dev work on the side. Once you get used to distroboxing / devcontainers, it’s rock-solid and mean dev environment (saw some minor issues with how certain GUI apps were scaled, but that’s about it).
2. Nobara for gaming (tried Bazzite and it’d prolly work for that purpose as well).

Unfortunately, had to keep Windows on one other machine (fuck you KORG for not providing anything working on Linux), but that’s limited to being a glorified music player now 😄

C# on Visual Studio is a fucking nightmare. Switched to Rider on WSL the first chance I had, not looking back.

Then again, if this is running on .NET Framework, there is no choice, afaik. You get a buttplug made of barbed wire in Windows + VS, and you’ll like it

Surprised no one mentioned Memento.

I’d say that you HAVE to re-watch it to understand wtf is going on.

While they do work, the UX is kinda gimped (knowing Micro$oft - that’s on purpose).

Violence No Matter What (in my ass)

Recent Linux convert here. Had some small background with it due to use at work (through WSL, unfortunately 😅). When Windows became too overbearing and intrusive for my own taste, decided to take a plunge and created a dual-boot setup with Bazzite (of course on my private machine). It was honestly refreshing to see stuff run with the same (or sometimes even better) performance.

This short anecdote now leads me to the conclusion; is it as good as we think it is?

Imo: hell fuckin’ yeah. It gets the job done and respects me as an end-user (with the trade-off of “some manual work might be required”).

Also, as a side-note: I live in the EU; I grew tired with an overbearing, salesman/rapist-like mentality of MS (and Windows, by extension) while reaping benefits of some modicum of privacy regulations. I cannot even begin to fathom how fucked the situation is where ppl don’t have these protections to rely on.

This is the right answer imo. While it might be an overkill for sth like 404s, it’s amazing for describing different bad requests.

Replace ‘gin’ with ‘rum’ and you have my attention 😁

The increasingly inaccurately named Hitchiker’s Trilogy by Douglas Adams (…)

Aka: the trilogy in five parts? But yeah, it’s a great pick book-wise

Arch Enemy - Stolen Life

And then promptly leave, before I get accused of attempted mass murder

Parasite Inc. - Function or Perish

(…) A nightmare, nicely wrapped in gold Stuffed in our heads And we just accept In our human density Bread and games modern I call it enslavement A mental enslavement And you call it life

It’s called “Needles” 😄
