But I do ask that you don't have the opposite of faith. Like, try not to be determined that we're going to do the wrong thing here.

That is a fair request. Many loud-mouths are whiny critics who assume everything that happens in the world is against them. It's really arrogant to think everyone thinks of you that much. Get over yourself and have faith in others.

It's a bummer for it to go. I think the game is pretty well designed. I wish players had better management options for the chat rooms as player communication was my only sour taste I got from playing the game (and it was only one occurrence).

As far as losing time investment into a video game... this isn't as large of a concern of mine as it used to be. I invest myself into real life more these days. Games are a time for R&R, not a replacement to real-life hardships to overcome.

Community-run servers would be nice.

New hybrid graphics support for longer battery life
◦ No need to change modes
◦ Apps that request the discrete GPU will automatically run on the correct GPU
◦ Manually run an app on your preferred GPU by right-clicking on the app icon

I will have to try it out on my laptop for that reason alone. That's big! I am mostly happy with Fedora KDE on my laptop with only two annoyances (copy+paste from Flatpak app isn't reliable; updates take a very long time).

Do any of the complainers explain what they want it to look like? Or is that a guessing game? I can't tell if people want it to look retro with higher resolution, or if they want it to look like Space Marine 2 fidelity.

Quoting: elmapul

Quoting: The_Real_BittermanMaaan glad Linux has CoW file systems. Well doesn't help with downloading but at least storing these chunky games is better.

it was useless in this case, because it couldnt auto detect those file duplications and save space, nor ir would be usefull in an HDD where you really needed those duplications.

The de-duplication process in, say, btrfs is not automatic. Right? You have to run a scan periodically. I doubt many people do this.

However, when you perform such a scan, it compares blocks in the filesystem, which means it can de-duplicate portions of files. Files don't have to be exactly the same content or name or size.

I don't know about you, but I hate redoing all my application preferences and configuration. I suggest setting up Borg backup. Or, at least in the case you were in, do a one-time rsync backup of your home folder "dot files" to another drive before resizing partitions.

But that situation stinks. I don't know how many times I've had to mess with filesystem management in Linux.

You know, WW2 games got old like 20 years ago. The industry shifted to zombies after that. That got old to me, and IT'S STILL OLD. meh to zombies

Aside from bad chat experience with players that I don't believe I had any control over, the mechanics and graphics of the game are really good.
