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?

Nvidia absolutely does not care about dedicated gaming GPUs anymore though, this is where their focus currently resides. Do you understand how much money Nvidia makes on their server hardware vs the consumer graphics card market? It’s absolutely disgusting how much their server offerings are making them right now. They don’t care about anecdotal scenarios like yours where you can tell a 120Hz VRR displaying is hitting a flat frame time. There will be a day when Nvidia just won’t offer midrange graphics cards anymore, because it’s just going to cost too much with little return on their investment over the server hardware and subscriptions.

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’m not buying that, there’s probably a little bit of truth in there, but honestly it’s pretty clear what’s happening. The higher ups require a certain amount of videos a week to be profitable, if they don’t meet that quota then they’re not making money or they think they’re not making money. They’re also pretty clearly favoring their sponsors and reviewing their products positively without showing actual credible benchmarks. It’s the sign of corporate greed creeping in once again and someone finally called out their bullshit. Linus isn’t taking it very well, and I can imagine why when someone you thought to be a friend or colleague is now calling you out with credible evidence that you’re just bullshitting around and half-assing the product you build from the ground up.

For me, this is the main point, GN has prided itself in integrity and making sure meticulous detail is done on every benchmark, LTT doesn’t do that and only worries about pumping out 7-10 videos a week to keep up with the YouTube algorithms (which may or may not be a real issue). I’m inclined to be behind GN on this one.

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.

This is good information but don’t bother with hexbear trolls, they love to be assholes to anything capitalism.

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.
