The voice acting alone is worth a lot. Oblivion did not age well in that regard. Not that it was ever great to beginn with…

Ah, that‘d make sense

I never quite got how interviews could be rare. Lost, maybe. But as soon as it’s on YouTube, how can it be rare? It’s right there, available to everyone, any time.

For books, library genesis would be a better place to look than piratebay though.

That has been rectified in 2017. iPhones these days do not slow down with new software updates any more than any other phone. They do throttle performance, if the battery is degraded to much but this is both communicated clearly and easily reversed by replacing the battery (even if you do it yourself or have it done by a third party, instead of paying apple’s admittedly high price).

Apple have plenty of anti-consumer behavior in other places. Treading around on an issue that is older than any currently supported iPhone, however, instead on focusing on current issues (like lack of app sideloading anywhere but in the EU, for example) is not conducive to actually getting Apple (or other corporations) to change their behavior. This battle has already been won.

It’s not actually done by Bethesda though but by Virtuos Games, which have both a history of making excellent remasters and miracle ports, and remasters that were very buggy at release.

Nobara: Has all the gaming features I want on my gaming pc (like gamescope) and is htpc capable. Also, it’s based on Fedora, which I’m familiar with.

Fedora: I like gnome and it’s always fairly up to date and rock solid. Great on my laptop.

Have considered switching to openSUSE though. It’s German (as am I), it’s the first Linux distro I ever used (on my granddad’s PC, more than a decade ago) and I’ve heard a lot of good about tumbleweed.

Depends on how much work they put into the graphics. Sure, if they keep UE at default settings, it’ll look like any run of the mill UE5 game. But if they cared enough to combine two engines, maybe they also cared enough to actually make UE5 look and feel more unique and more Elderscrolls-y…

Also, keeping gamebryo for logic might be a good thing to make the game feel more like the original.

Apparently UE5 only for rendering, the game logic still on the old gamebryo engine.

Because if done well, UE5 is fairly pretty and if it’s used just for graphics, maybe it won’t perform as badly either. The mixture of two engines tells me at the very least that the devs spent some amount of thought and time on the engine(s).

But yea, when it comes out and I find out it runs like crap on my 5700xt, I’ll just wait until Skyblivion is out. Not gonna be too long anyways.

The fuck is a 960p monitor? What’s the horizontal resolution? 1707? Or is it not 16:9? Don’t think I’ve ever seen or heard of that.

Discovery has some pretty good, a few extremely annoying and a whole lot of very boring characters who’s name I wouldn’t even remember if you told me.

The worst thing about it though, is that it’s pessimistic, dark and over dramatic.

In an accident.

Ok, so arch doesn’t break because it’s unstable, it just breaks anyways. And it doesn’t break more in general, it just breaks worse more often. Got it.

I’ll still stay away from the bleeding edge.

That’s still exactly what I meant? Sure, arch may never break even though it’s unstable but it being unstable heightens the risk of it (or some program) breaking due to changing library versions breaking dependencies.

Dependency issues happen much more rarely on stable systems. That’s why it’s called stable. And I very much prefer a system that isn’t likely to create dependency issues and thus break something when I update anything.

I‘d rather have a system that is stable and a few months out of date than a system that is so up to date that it breaks. Because then I cannot, in a good conscience, use that system on a device that I need to just work every time I start it.

Larger downstream distros like manjaro (and steamOS for that matter) can be stable. I wouldn’t call manjaro a beginners distro though, like mint would be (No Linus, there’s no apt in manjaro) but it’s very daily-driveable.

Although, if you’re most people, just stay away from rolling release distros. There’s so little benefit unless you’re running bleeding edge hardware…

If it‘s your first time trying linux, go with mint. It’s stable and almost every tutorial will work for you. If you know your way around a terminal already, the choice is all yours. I personally like Fedora.

If you get a good deal on it, an old MacBook (Retina Pro from 2013, 2014 or ideally 2015) can also be a very nice Linux laptop. They are sturdy, sleek and you won’t find a better trackpad or screen on any laptop in the same price range. Although maybe not the best performance for the price.

I also very much recommend Linux mint. I’m personally a bigger fan of fedora but Linux mint ist a very good choice for a bit older/cheaper laptops.

That’s why I recommend mint. You have all the benefits of ubuntu but without the corporate stuff. And flatpak instead of snap.

Wasn’t that one of the main critiques of snap/ubuntu/canonical a few years ago already?

Among my personal dislike for its shade of purple, that has been my primary reason to not recommend ubuntu for a while, at least.

I mean, it’s still really cool tech. It’s just useless except for some very niche uses and it’s far too expressive
