Barely ever posted on Reddit, but have already outdone the total post count here. Haven’t posted in a while though, mostly because of post-work brain melt

My experience is that overall the solutions were really clever and gratifying in these games. I did have the occasional hang up with having to look something up, but they were mostly my own fault from only playing it 3 hours at a time weekly (or longer if I got caught up with other stuff), forgetting some details in between

The overarching story spans both games, so I’d say the first one. Both are combined in the Steam release.

Feels like I’ve been stuck using it just by default, because everyone else I know is, and there’s nothing decent fitting that particular use case. Skype definitely wasn’t cutting it. I at least avoid communities that are trying and failing to be forum-like, and just keep it to ones with people I know, and my viewers. Still run a Teamspeak server for a select set of friends to do YT recordings on, as it predates Discord, and is generally more stable (avoiding voice dropouts).

It absolutely was, and I wasn’t prepared for exactly how it would go down. I definitely intend to try Spirit of Justice sometime, mostly yeah when it’s on Steam. I’ll have to check out Ghost Trick too, although I don’t know much about it.

Also, Ace Attorney Investigations is a good time. Well, except for the sword-handedness thing in one of the cases lmao

At the moment I’d probably say: Minecraft, Celeste, Vampire Survivors, Hollow Knight, and the Valve single-player games like Half-Life 1/2 and Portal 2.

Honestly, I feel more comfortable participating on Lemmy than I ever did on Reddit or Twitter.

• Main Gaming/Editing PC - Windows 11 - While I have had good experiences with PopOS as a dual boot, I’m probably staying on Windows on this machine to not worry about hardware compatibility. My main issues on Linux distros came to my WiFi 6 USB adapter not being well supported (running an Ethernet drop to this room is infeasible at the moment, but a future plan), power state issues regarding standby mode and shutdown, and the GPU (3060ti) only really working well on PopOS. Davinci Resolve also apparently only works with H.264 or H.265 video codecs on Linux if you get the paid version, probably because of licensing relating to those, which I may get eventually. I also like Windows 11 way more than 10, surprisingly.
• Laptop - Linux Mint - Rock solid when you’re just talking about a machine with integrated components. Has Timeshift for system restoring preinstalled, and is light on resources while still fulfilling my needs outside of gaming and video editing. I can still play light games (it’s a slower laptop) like Celeste or Vampire Survivors fine though, but really leave that for the main PC.
• Homelab servers - Proxmox running mostly Ubuntu Server VMs and LXC containers - Honestly as with any homelab, this may change just for the sake of testing things, but having this setup on my previous Ryzen 5 1600 desktop, and an HP mini PC works out pretty well. Most of what I test or use is at the service or development level anyway.
