I never thought I would see this happen. But here I am, playing games I like on Linux without having to worry about compatibility (too much at least).
There's still much to work on. But we are, and have been, on the right path for long time.
I am excited to see what the future holds for Linux gaming.

Now this is a blast from the past! Our WinXP computer was super slow and sluggish, it barely ran anything.. But Soldat worked well. Many hours were spent playing this game.... And modding the minigun to shoot rockets so fast it froze our PC.

Quoting: ronnocOh, TIL! And makes sense I suppose. I am using Kubuntu now and I'm really happy with it, but I've always had a very soft spot in my heart for Linux Mint, it was one of my first distros among the default Ubuntu flavor.Quoting: akselmoMint is, well, mint! :D I just would like to see a KDE spin of it, with all the basic KDE stuff preinstalled.There used to be Linux Mint KDE, but alas it was really designed and maintained by one main (unpaid) volunteer. IIRC, once he could no longer support Mint's KDE spin, Clem dropped it like a hot potato. Was a great KDE distro, as it used KDE-themed versions of all of Mint's artwork. I left Mint for Kubuntu at that point, and use Neon today.
Honestly, if Mint were to deploy a KDE version today, it would likely be indistinguishable from Kubuntu, as all of the tools and apps that are unique to Mint are and will ALWAYS BE GTK-based.
Sorry Arch (EndeavourOS), it's not working out any more and hello Fedora

Should try Fedora sometime. Just been super happy with Kubuntu and have had no reason to switch yet. Well, except for curiosity.

I'd love to play Halo MCC again... Hopefully they'll add the EAC support there, but I'm not holding my breath.

Having such big title working on Linux is pretty big. Been playing it and after the shader cache is built, it works pretty nicely!

My game, Penance, is there too. It has Linux build although there's a bug that your mouse cursor is *huge*... :'D But the Windows version should work fine under wine if the native build has problems.
