Mesh routers are nothing to recommend lightly. Most are a complete headache to set up.

Multiplayer games in general are hard to regulate. MMO's, Mobas, FPS, ARPGs. This games are designed to swallow weeks of your life before you react. When I stopped playing these type of games it didn't become as much of a problem to regulate my gaming.

Write down what an optimal day for someone your age, in your living area, looks like. Weekly activities. Exercise. Etc. Start implementing the we things into your life at a pace that isn't to slow but not too fast either.

Set goals what most of your days should consist of. Most days. Don't set routines that are too nailed down. Don't go overboard. Excersise three times a week? Two days need to be back to back but the third can be anytime during the week? Things like that.

Work this into your routine. Take one step at a time.

If I regret one thing at the age of 37 it would be not having some kind of exercise in my weekly routine from my early 20s. I would be in sooo much better shape, have more energy, be more alert.

Balance in everything is key.

I'm still puzzled you compare soldering circuits 30 years ago with pressing a disk today. Games took a year to one and a half with about 15 people to develop compared to teams of 100 working for years. Like I stated earlier, the electrical bills alone to create the new AAA titles today are probably equal to the entire development budget of the AAA titles 30 years ago. However we twist it, we pay the same or less for games now than we did 30 years ago. A lot of games are even free now if you don't fall into the pit of buying skins. We are in a good place.

Depends. I need Parsec as host. Or something equivalent. And I couldn't find it. So I'm stuck where I am.

This went south, east, north and west at the same time. Calm down people :)

No one was complaining. At all. Yet quite the few of you force this 'just get a pc' argument from nowhere. Yes this thing requires an Internet connection when installed. You claiming that your pc doesnt? Nothing here is worse.

I've been a pc gamer for almost 30 years but I can also recognise consoles have their place. Some people wanna sit in the sofa and play on their 70" TV with a gamepad with as little care as possible. Sometimes with a friend or with family (even if it's not as common as with previous gen consoles). Price don't bother them much. Playing Smash or other co-op games with 4 people on an emulator is not as user friendly as you might think. Controllers sometimes connect weirdly etc.

Linux gaming is a little hit or miss. Some games have a performance boost. Some are about the same. And some games perform worse. This is the reality. And this is what should be expected.

Your post is still true for your specific hardware and this specific game, with these specific drivers, but let's not go crazy here. Linux is good, yes. Fantastic even, on the Steam Deck. On PC most people are better off sticking with Windows, especially if you play a couple of competitive multiplayer titles. Or if you want to stream games from one device to another in house. Or if you have limited time and just want shit to work. Linux is getting closer, but the out of the box experience need to become way better and I don't doubt it will sooner rather than later.

Worked for me. Saves weere still there after my internal ssd swap. Had my saves on sd card. Fresh install of emudeck found old saves.

Parsec doesnt work as host on Linux. Biggest reason I can't use it. I think you care just a teeny tiny bit.

The first thing I do is gather wood. Make a crafting table, a wooden axe and a wooden pickaxe. Where am I?

I'm very interested in how anything could be worse. I'm so happy a company bought ActBlizz. Might turn this ship arround just a little bit
