Growing up in a 3rd world country. When my father gave me a PS2 it was hacked to play pirated games. We also burned CDs on our PC before that.

Bought it on sale earlier this year alongside Palworld and Helldivers 2. You might notice why I still haven't started it.

I had a sudden urge to look into TERA Online private servers, downloaded 100GB of custom game clients... And that somehow resulted in me getting back into playing Grim Dawn. This time I want to play it enough to really learn it and actually finish the game.

They're simple to get into for anyone with an introductory interest in Linux, although I haven't liked Ubuntu in ages. My Mint setup took a bit of effort but it does game pretty well. Fedora could be a good recommendation too, I liked that when I tried it out. There's some gaming focused distros like Bazzite or Nobara, but I feel like I can get a "normal" distro working to a similar state for games, and I don't have to hope that a small team doesn't fold and my distro loses updates support.

I'm trying out OpenSUSE Tumbleweed this week, wanna see if it's a good alternative to Fedora.

I don't dare try Arch yet, and thus I also wouldn't recommend it to any new user.

I mean even without that slip up the rest of the message still gives them away. Who the fuck would say that without being a vatnik shill.

The golden days of Ultimate-Guitar uaer submitted tabs and pirated Guitar Pro 5 (which my guitar teacher gave to me on a burned CD) Good times.

Open a ticket with support where an actual human will read it. The automated refund tool will always deny it.

Dunno, but graphics drivers stopped working again! Go reinstall them!

I feel bad for Arrowhead. Sony fucked them over and it's not going to take any of the backlash, they will.

Haha, tutel.

Speaking of the state of piracy, how is the state of piracy on Linux? I usually only do that stuff on Windows, I've never tried installing Repacks and such on my Linux machines.
