Don’t wait. Experiment now in a VM to learn the basics.

And the excitement I had has gone. Removed from wish list and added to ignore list.

This explains so much.

Firstly, forget the books

Secondly try to convince yourself that two or disparate storylines somehow will combine at some point to become meaningful.

Thirdly for some odd reason I still enjoy it

Have you ever been in the position where you complete some quest before you’ve actually been given it, and when you go to the quest giver they give you the quest and you immediately click back and complete the quest… well so far I’ve saved the girl at the druids grove without speaking to the mother and when I did finally speak to the parents I wasn’t handed the quest, I was rewarded for something that I wasn’t asked to do..now that has impressed me. This game is above and beyond anything I expected it to be

Steam. Works on Linux.

Wheel of time…maybe fantasy but still.

Google translate made this for me years ago and I copy and paste everywhere

I’ve used them and can find a lot of stuff that isn’t available on the more open seas, but maintaining ratio is a big issue, not sure if it’s my setup or the tracker itself, so I can’t download as much as I want to.

Software wise, anything without a demo. The support from companies is dire at the best of times and if something doesn’t work on your system your screwed. In shops you can test the suitability of something by testing it (sitting on a couch, laying on a bed) but with software they take your money and run.

Also anything abandoned is fair game.

Is beef now a vegetable? If so I can finally go vegan 😂

Again???

I’m not 100% sure if this meets any of your requirements but I always enjoyed homeworld can’t remember if I’ve ever run it on Linux since switching tho.

As to the other requirements, I don’t think I found it that easy to get into as it took a while to get into the whole 3D map thing, and the graphics may have aged

So Chrome prematurely ejaculates?

Voting for Wool as it makes sense to read the book before checking out how AppleTV have (maybe) destroyed it

I don’t get “into” shows on Netflix anymore. I wait a year or two to see if it gets cancelled first. Can’t wait to check out 3 body in 2026-27

This is my biggest problem, but my eyesight is worse even with corrective glasses. I just listen a chapter at a time, it’s the only way I can do it.

Sounds good, still not forgiven them for foundation, although if you forget the books it is quite an enjoyable story in its own right
