You are correct @tuubi - it's not a spiritual steamworld dig 3 ... more factory building and resource gathering. But it still is fun as you said! I've definitely wishlisted it and could be a really fun chill Deck game.

Man alive. I built this pc I'm typing on like maybe 6 months ago, HOW LUCKY I FEEL RIGHT NOW ... !! Sure the gpu prices were/still are insane, but at least ram was still dirt cheap. WTF is this garbage I'm looking at right now ... $400 for a 32g kit? WHAT.

It feels great when you get a mouse / keeb you really like and keep using it for years. I've been a huge fan of the pulsar xlite series for what feels like forever (ergo right hand shape) and I think I've been using this particular one for several years now.

Interesting. So I guess all future Steam hardware will be arm based? Deck 2, etc...? I guess does that mean I need to be thinking about an arm chip for my next desktop? Wild to think that after decades of x86 this computer I'm typing on might be the last?

Quoting: scaineYeah, I should have said, I actually got into Arch because of Endeavour. It's a great O/S. I mentioned CachyOS here because it attempts to fix the issue of non-GUI software-centres by including Octopi, which isn't ditro-specific, but is pretty limited in what it can do address this lack.

Octopi gets the job done, but OH BOY is it clunky and difficult to learn / use for a new user. I've been on linux for decades at this point, and the first few times I used it I was so confused. I like that there's a GUI front end to manage all the packages, but man alive it could use some work. Oh well, if that's about the only thing I have to complain about with Cachy, then I think it's doing a damn good job!

Right now I'm into some Kingdoms of the Dump on my Deck, and Outer Worlds 2 on desktop. I bet I'll finish up OW2 before christmas, then I think I'll take a short break from desktop gaming and do some reading instead. Get back into a proper isometric turn based rpg next year.
