  • It is my first time dabbling with linux at all so i might just have luck and i had some small problems, that thankfully resolved themselves pretty easy.

    I am using CachyOs since my brother in law recommended it and i could ask him when there where any problems. Have an old Nvidia GTX 1080 and have no problems with it yet.

    Steam will be installed alongside Discord and Firefox with Cachy so no problem there. I could even test and transfer games through steam, from my older windows drives once they were mounted.

    Getting BlishHuD to run was not hard. There is a good guide Here. Only framerate issues i have is with Pathing but i had that with windows aswell.

    Installing some modules make it crash but i rarely use any except pathing and EmoteTome so you gotta experiment i guess.

    ArcDps works right out of the box and any other game works through steam without a problem. I do not play mayor multiplayer games so i dont miss out on that stuff.

    My wife likes to play sims 4 tho so i will have to make EA launcher work later this year when i switch her desktop to linux.

    My tip is makin backups and have someone experienced to help if you need it. Also take your time. I did it on my vacation and it was quite fun to dabble tbh.

    Nicely done!

    Still one of the best shows i have ever seen period. The acting and atmosphere of the camera and soundtrack is amazing. The story is ahead of its time and you can sadly see many things happening from it right now.

    Whenever i watch a new dramatic show or movie i always compare it to Mr. Robot and it rarely holds up. You should really finish it one day!




  • Guild wars 2! Giant map to explore and alright story in the free to play part.

    Even if you pick different backrounds and race you can port to the other starting maps and the story connects everything later on.

    It also gets more difficult so dont think it is always easy like in the starter zones.

    And it is one of the old school f2ps thats still good without paying if you wanna try it out.

    But if you spend money on an expac you keep it and dont have to pay for a savegame like WoW.

    One of the rare MMOs that values your time and money.




  • First thing that always comes to mind is King of Tokyo. Everyone i have played that with wanted to play it again after it was done.

    Even bought 3 copies over the years as gifts. Very fast, easy to learn and most importantly teach to young and old.

    Tokaido is very chill but can be cutthroat like monopoly, if you want to get competitive with it.

    Treasure Island, which is like Scotland Yard but with a treasure and a map you can draw clues onto. Kids love that one even when it can be a bit complicated for some.

    We always play it as a team and as the bad guy you gotta nerf the clues a bit, because it is meant to be played against each other.

    Speaking of teamplay, Pandemic is a well known puzzle classic for every collection.

    Aswell as Dorfromantik, which is similar to the Videogame but just as good with some friends and family that likes endless puzzles.

    As for good Cardgame alternatives there is Scout, which is way better than Uno IMHO and the newer Secret Tip i can give to everyone that is into CCGs, but do not want to buy endless Booster packs named The Vale of Eternity. Very tight and simple engine builder where you get a good Card game right out the box.

    Got quite the large collection and know a bit about it so i hope it helps. Can also recommend the Shut up and sit down youtube channel, that highlights a lot of great games.

    Cheers

    Monopoly is such a boring game with bad mechanics. It is what people play if they do not know better and i know back then we had not many alternatives.

    But if you play it nowadays you are missing out on some amazing boardgames compared to that. Settlers of Catan and Uno are very outdated aswell IMHO.
