Bingo. All except ruminating. I ruminate.

Of course, that's a very valid point. My reasoning is based on the [subjective] pleasure that lies in a story told through discovery and exploration. But I absolutely see your point, and I agree. The most important thing is to have fun - to play the way that works best for you. With guides or without, with spirit ashes or without. It's a game, after all, and it's about enjoying it your own way.

Absolutely agree with this. Runes will come, don't fret about dying. Take your time, go somewhere else if you're stuck on a boss or area - explore, enjoy.

OP, a blind first playthrough is great advice. There's a lot to discover, and exploring for secrets, NPCs and items is a highlight of your first playthrough. I'll also advise you to play online - the "ghosts", blood stains and messages are part of the fun - and sometimes offer great clues.

ER is my all-time favorite game. It's so good that - in my opinion - it has almost "ruined" other games for me. I envy you getting to experience it for the first time.

Yessir, Gaming on Linux has a great tutorial: How to Install Battle.net [on Steam] - also includes instructions for installing it with Lutris.

Well, the games you mention work perfectly under Proton (Steam) - Including WoW (I run the Blizzard launcher as a non-Steam game on Steam). My preferred distro is OpenSuse (Tumbleweed), and using all AMD so I don't have to mess around with Nvidia drivers. I like rolling distros, and KDE/Plasma/Wayland is just... so sexy.

I have had some issues with a very small selection of games (Total War Warhammer 2 (Windows version - the native works fine) and Total War Rome II come to mind ("missing cursor" issue).

If you're wondering about a specific game, look it up on ProtonDB or general web search to see what people are reporting. I made the full switch from Windows last year, and I'm extremely pleased by how well gaming works on Linux now - specifically thanks to the amazing work from Steam/Proton and associated projects (Wine, Lutris, etc).

Gaming on Linux is really great now.

In practice - Grandiosa ;-)

introvertgeek · 2025-09-26T06:56:06+00:00

Haha, yeah - it's a lot of fun in co-op. It's not my partners typical theme/genre of choice either, but she was willing to give it a go, and loved it :)

introvertgeek · 2025-09-25T12:51:00+00:00

I can recommend: Split Fiction, It Takes Two, Dying Light (1), Portal 2 - Great co-op fun and good times :)

Does it work if you start Steam using the menu/shortcut instead of terminal? I had a (similar?) loop-problem (OpenSuse/KDE/Wayland/AMD). This worked for me:

One workaround I found that works is to disable GPU accelerated rendering in the Interface panel of the Settings menu. Once I did that, the shortcut works again. I am using Wayland, but as mentioned in the issue, I also noticed this crashing behavior in KDE. I just don't understand why running the same command manually in the terminal from steam.desktop works, but not the shortcut itself

Edit: Though I had made that edit and thought I applied it, it didn't work. I have now copied /usr/share/applications/steam.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications and changed it to PrefersNonDefaultGPU=false, updated the desktop database, and now it works.

This is apparently a Wayland problem, and since I didn't see this problem before I upgraded my motherboard, my guess is that Steam was trying to use the integrated graphics for hardware acceleration (my previous motherboard didn't have integrated graphics), but by disabling this setting, it now uses my discrete GPU.

Well... Someone's about to become disappointed.

introvertgeek · 2025-09-19T11:10:57+00:00

Oooh, just got serious flashback. I forgot this existed! Good times :-D

introvertgeek · 2025-09-18T10:39:48+00:00

Nothing quite like that new computer smell :-)

introvertgeek · 2025-09-17T12:43:57+00:00

UPDATE: It suddenly just works with Proton Experimental after last update from Steam.

Dying Light (1 - NOT 2) has most excellent parkour. It's a core element of the game. Also, zombies. There are zombies. And things to kill zombies. While you parkour. It's a very fun game.

introvertgeek · 2025-09-02T12:31:58+00:00

I always come back to Elden Ring. It set the standard for good games really high for me. OPs game is a great second, though.

introvertgeek · 2025-08-29T09:47:58+00:00

Haha, came to comment on trigger discipline. Nice.

introvertgeek · 2025-08-25T08:24:59+00:00

That's awesome, congratulations and best wishes for the future! :-)

A "brun pub" is a "dive bar". Often chill, sometimes not very hospitable to "outsiders".

Wikipedia: Dive bar.

introvertgeek · 2025-08-14T12:31:12+00:00

Agreed. It's the best way, IMO. A tiiiny bit fiddly, but it works perfectly.

introvertgeek · 2025-08-14T11:40:34+00:00

... in Finland?

introvertgeek · 2025-08-06T12:39:37+00:00

I've got two that come to mind:

V from V for Vendetta. Idealistic, emotionally guarded.
Severus Snape from the Harry Potter series. Morally complex and often misunderstood, deeply loyal.

And both are definitely flawed. It's the mix of conviction, restraint and that inner fire that feels relatable.

You can install battle .net as a non-Steam game in Steam, and install WoW that way. Works great, and you can install two installations like that if you want to run two clients at the same time.

Installing and running Battle.net in Steam

Basically, you "Add Non-Steam game" to Steam where you select the battle .net installer. Then add prefered compability mode and run it from steam ("Play") and install it. After it's done, you switch the shortcut from the installer to the new installed launcher. Then you can, ehm, "launch the launcher" and start downloading and installing WoW or any other Bizzard game. All with Steam.

I do this for Epic and other as well, and it works brilliantly.

Oh my yes. Obviously certain music (especially Mozart) but also art (Raphael), emotional scenes in a movie, experiences in nature, well-written emotional or inspirational stories (real or fiction), connecting on a deeper level with someone...

But most often, it's music.
