Comment on Not even the ghost of obsolescence can coerce users onto Windows 11
littlecolt@lemm.ee 1 year agoIf you play any games with kernel level anti cheat like Destiny 2 or Fortnite, you will need to go with Win 10. Otherwise, Linux is really easy nowadays. Pick an easy distro like Pop or Mint and you can get into the game pretty easy. Your games that are already installed on NTFS drives can even be easily recognized by Steam with a little work setting up mount points etc

Nah, I’m more into singleplayer games. Multiplayer games I play are pretty much only D2R and maybe at some point PoE/PoE 2 again, but I doubt a kernel-level anti cheat will ever be a thing there.
I’ll put Mint and Pop on my watchlist, thanks!

Mint was my first, Pop is my current and fave.
Just remember to check your favorite Steam games on protondb.com to see how well it runs on Linux.

Just a heads up, I’d recommend choosing a distro with the intention of staying there. Distro-hopping can induce rage, I went through it for a four year period when I started 17 years ago. If you do decide to distrohop, backup your home folder so you don’t lose anything (you will even keep your steam games installed if you do this)
