Agreed. It’s mostly an ad delivery platform these days. Can be somewhat OK if you have a DNS based blocker but hard to block built in spyware.

Microsoft showed their hand and for some it was the last straw. It might not come to non-copilot pcs (for now) but they showed users they are OK with turning the OS into spyware.

100% switched because of Recall. Been a Linux user on and off for 20 years, windows was my daily driver for the past 5 or so (windows 10 was OK in my mind). Once Recall was announced, I bounced back to Linux. Having Steam popularize gaming on Linux has helped a ton

This looks nice. Love the yellow/gold here, an underused color!

Forgot all about LunaSea, thanks for the reminder!

Awesome and interesting take. I’ve decided to wait for the DLC based on this and other conversations I’ve had.

Thanks for the reply. Videos of the game often show parts where you are driving around and it made me think about GTA and all the fun I had just driving around Liberty City just messing around. This aspect of the game didn’t ever look as polished as GTA and I realized if I wanted that, just pick up GTA!

So in the end, I am sort of glad it’s more or less it’s own thing.

Thanks all for the insightful recommendations.

I’ve decided to hold on Cyberpunk for now and definitely pick up Control (thanks @trankillity)!

Probably will also pick up GTA5 just to drive around in and putz around.

I have Skyrim as an RPG that I only played a few hours on, so probably skipping on VII remake for now.

And last, probably picking up No Mans Sky.

Cheers!

I’ll look at XII. Mostly was intrigued by the remake because I played the original and loved it back when it originally came out. I know the remake is only part of the whole but wanted to re-experience the story again.

Oh wow, Control looks so unique and atmospheric. Thanks so much for the recommendation!

I played Transistor on mobile a while back and enjoyed it. Hades is definitely on my wishlist

Hollow Knight… Metroidvania, Castlevania SotN was my absolute favorite forever. Thanks for tipping me off on the one. I do own Bloodstained and am making some progress on that one. This looks equally great!
