  Same. Haven’t had the need for full blown VMs at all. Passing through the iGPU for transcoding took a bit of time to figure out, but works great. I do have an Arch LXC container for some apps without a deb repository, though, to keep them updated through AUR.

  Any mod packs or whatever to recommend? Played it once when it came out using a sneak + bow build (didn’t know it was OP when I started though). Haven’t checked out rhe DLC or anything, so I want to revisit it once I upgrade my potato rig later this year
