Monster Hunter Wilds currently rated "Overwhelmingly Negative" on Steam

Reply in thread

The game moves on rails, doesn't encourage exploration, doesn't have any side content or freedom or sidequests until post-story..which also is lacking in content.

To make it better: the game runs terribly even on the latest hardware, matchmaking with friends is a hassle, confusing and doesn't have an online hub.. This is all a deviation from previous MH games, and some features from previous games just don’t exist in wilds.

The story and are combat fine, but the game just forces the story too much and doesn't give the player much freedom until it's finished.

Also denuvo.

Logitech being Logitech

Both suck.

Had TWO G413 keyboard where the E-key just stopped registering keypresses sometimes. Third one got the same issue on left ctrl.. returned and got a custom keyboard lmao.

I also had a G Pro X Superlight whatever and it took only 4 months to develop double clicking and super weird tracking issues like stuttery cursor movement and sometimes just stopping to work unless I restarted or re-plugged the mouse. Recently got a Lamzu Thorn. Easily the best mouse I have ever had, can recommend over Logitech's garbage

How could you do this to me?

highly recommend installing linux on a separate ssd and removing the windows one for installation.

Also your steam library most probably won't like being loaded from the windows drive, because it is formatted to ntfs, which isn't perfectly supported on linux.

EU backs away from chat control

The title is misleading.

This is still happening, unfortunately, even using the same excuse of child exploitation as always. The main mass-surveillance and age verifications are still in there.

from https://fightchatcontrol.eu/:

Thanks to public pressure, the Danish Presidency has been forced to revise its text, explicitly stating that any detection obligations are voluntary. While much better, the text continues to both (a) effectively outlaw anonymous communication through mandatory age verification; and (b) include planned voluntary mass scannings. The Council is expected to formally adopt its position on Chat Control the 18th or 19th of November. Trilogue with the European Parliament will commence soon after.

State of gaming on linux?

Seems pretty okay. I managed to get League of legends/TFT running perfectly fine (though the launcher is a bit stuttery)

CSGO I noticed runs WAY smoother on Linux. Maybe becausw it uses Vulkan which is a lot more modern than dx9. But the aim just feels.. smoother despite the same FPS?

edit: on Nobara and a AMD GPU

[Wayland] How to completely disable mouse acceleration?

UPDATE: I am an idiot.

I was setting the acceleration method for the wrong device all the time. I didn't realize to select the actual mouse from the dropdown in KDE mouse settings until I plugged in my old mouse in.

Anyway that's the acceleration solved. Also as qwesx pointed out, there is some issue with my Logitech Pro X Superlight. The mouse feels more sluggish when using the wireless dongle compared to it being wired. Must be the wrong polling rate or something?

Why should I primary Linux for Home Desktop and which one do you recommend?

Reply in thread

This very much.

The reason I switched was the forced updates that kept slowing down my computer when I needed the juice and network. Also there was a constant pressure to "upgrade" to win11.

OP, If you don’t have many major grievances with windows, it might not be worth switching. Nothing stopping you from taking a look in case you might like it. I have enjoyed my experience so far, despite some small issues.
