Doom 2016 was game of the decade for me, but I never finished Eternal after multiple attempts due to getting too frustrated with the mechanics and just not enjoying it.

Going to wait and watch some gameplay before deciding to try it.

High school math never prepared me for toilet paper math.

One of us! One of us!

Putin would love nothing more than for that to happen.

Typically, no. AMD (and Intel) are generally plug and play with the same OS install. Drivers are open source and provided via Kernel and Mesa packages.

I do not use EndeavorOS so I cannot confirm if any additional packages are needed for Vulkan support. However, that wouldn’t change if you’re just upgrading from one AMD GPU to another.

Running Bazzite here and it’s been great. Wife made the switch from Windows 10 too (she did not want 11).

Arch was fun when I had an interest to tinker, but Bazzite is great when you really just want to play games.

This is the one thing I miss from using Gnome. I might look into a way to recreate on KDE but I’m already used to using KDE as-is now.

Glad to see the use of “temporary” code started early.

Little Bobby Tables strikes again.

I really started to dislike Windows and projects like Bazzite made it incredibly easy to make the jump. The wife is now gaming in Linux for the same reasons.

Great suggestions. The Ventoy bros are weird. Just use what works for you.

Checking this out now! So far I like it. Only think I lose from using Gboard is the access to gifs, but I can work around that.

Ouch, didn’t realize the Nvidia build was struggling. Hopefully it gets patched up soon.

If there’s a previous commit before the issue is introduced you can pin it and wait to unpin until the issue gets resolved.

Fedora (including Silverblue/Kionite) is hard to recommend as a first distro though. It’s an excellent platform when you know your end goal and how to get there, while providing “leading-edge” packages that’s great for gaming.

But a project like Bazzite? Phenomenal new user experience for gaming and a very easy recommend.

Yup! Forgot to circle back to this post, but confirmed updated to 6.9.4 and games are no longer crashing.

This will be me using YouTube in 2025.

That’s the one. Waiting for the patch to make it’s way downstream.

Hopped around for a while and enjoyed Fedora the most. I’m now on Bazzite and love it.

+1 for Bazzite. I stopped hopping around when I tried it with Fedora 38, been using it since.

I’ve had one problem related to kernel 6.9.x affecting Steam game stability on my old hardware ( i5 2500k). Newer systems have BIOS settings that mitigate the issue. It’s not a Bazzite specific problem. However, I was able to roll back and pin a previous image that uses kernel 6.8.x. Will unpin and update once I see a fix deployed.

I loved Doom 2016 and hated Doom Eternal. I’m gonna be real skeptical until I see how it actually plays after release.
