Yep.
- Comment on SteamOS massively beats Windows on the Legion Go S 18 hours ago:
I reached the same conclusion. But at the end of the day it’s your system, if losing Gamepass doesn’t bother you go ahead and install SteamOS. I did see a few people say that it is somewhat buggy and that Bazzite is still better for the Ally.
- Comment on SteamOS massively beats Windows on the Legion Go S 1 day ago:
Unfortunate why? It just means Asus sold you a pretty well optimized product.
- Comment on SteamOS massively beats Windows on the Legion Go S 1 day ago:
So far it seems to be an issue with the Legion itself. The ROG Ally sees no meaningful improvements with SteamOS.
- Comment on What games are just objective master pieces? 2 days ago:
Bloodborne.
It’s also easy to tell most lemmyzens are PC gamers since I hardly saw anyone mention it and it is OBJECTIVELY THE GREATEST GAME EVER MADE.
- Comment on Dave2D - Windows Was The Problem All Along (Lenovo Legion Go Windows 11 vs. SteamOS) 2 days ago:
It doesn’t support Gamepass.
- Comment on Dave2D - Windows Was The Problem All Along (Lenovo Legion Go Windows 11 vs. SteamOS) 2 days ago:
Better or equally good, not comparable. I know there’s a bunch of them, but none offer better or equally performance for the price, only “comparable”.
- Comment on Elden Ring: Nightreign Shows Off A New Powerful Executor Class 2 days ago:
I basically play every game a year late nowadays. When I don’t I almost always regret it because they tend to announce DLCs or expansions just as soon as I’m finished with the game and I don’t replay games (hardly have enough time to play through them once as it it)
- Comment on Dave2D - Windows Was The Problem All Along (Lenovo Legion Go Windows 11 vs. SteamOS) 2 days ago:
Find a better, or equally good computer than the Mac Mini M4 at the same price.
- Comment on Dave2D - Windows Was The Problem All Along (Lenovo Legion Go Windows 11 vs. SteamOS) 2 days ago:
Not worth going through the trouble of installing this unless you only have games on Steam. The best thing about the Ally is the compatibility thanks to windows. If it offered better performance, then it would be worth it just to play steam games.
- Comment on Dave2D - Windows Was The Problem All Along (Lenovo Legion Go Windows 11 vs. SteamOS) 3 days ago:
Why isn’t this the case with the ROG Ally? Users are reporting negligible to no change on Reddit.
- Comment on Elden Ring: Nightreign Shows Off A New Powerful Executor Class 3 days ago:
This game looks cool but I’m gonna wait it out for a year on the gamble that it will come to Gamepass.
- Comment on DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies 3 days ago:
They can also probably do some accounting hijinks to write off these “losses” while still profiting on it for a long long time. Although this is purely speculative on my part as I’m not an accountant.
- Comment on DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies 3 days ago:
I’m pretty sure that’s exactly how they want it to be. If they were interested in selling games they wouldn’t put them day one on gamepass.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 4 days ago:
You are not obligated to read the book.
You should feel obligated to nothing except to remunerate people fairly for their work if you want it.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 4 days ago:
Yeah isolating yourself from everyone you disagree with is awesome, truly nothing bad ever comes out of it.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 4 days ago:
Do you have to agree with everyone you give your money to? What sort of economy would that be?
Buy the book on the premise that you want access to the content he spent energy and time to produce. Just like you’d pay to get access to any kind of content that you want to consume because it is the fair thing to do.
Or get it at the library like everyone else said.
Pirating it is not ethical of course, but furthermore it becomes hypocritical and intellectually dishonest if you would criticize some else for pirating content produced by any other author.
- Comment on GOG News for Gaming/Linux/Steam Deck 5 days ago:
Dis de way
If it’s on GOG at same price or only insignificantly higher ($2 max), I buy on GOG.
- Comment on SteamOS finally released by Valve 5 days ago:
According to redditors bazzite is still the better solution for the ROG Ally.
I was interested in installing it on mine but honestly I mostly play Gamepass games so it doesn’t make much sense for me
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 dev calls Randy Pitchford's $80 Borderlands 4 comments "gross" because it implies the FPS is more important than "making it day to day" 1 week ago:
I’ll buy this when it’s $20 with all expansions in two years.
It’s not because of Randy Bobandy here but because I found that if I play a game on release I end up playing the worst version of the game. And then I never play expansions because I rarely replay games and I’m not about to play an expansion to a game I haven’t played in a year without replaying the base game again.
So I buy games a year late, at half the price. I love gaming.
- Comment on Explains crossfit 1 week ago:
This particular bartender actually knew about cars, since he had trained as a mechanic or so he said. We were talking about JDM, something about BMWs and so on and that’s how we landed on that topic. I was saying how EVs are all pretty much super cars and then he retorted he would never buy an EV because the battery emitted cancer causing gasses. I retorted with something along the lines of “if that were the case, you should get rid of your phone since they use the same kind of battery” and then he doubled down and I just went “huh” that was pretty much the end of that conversation.
- Comment on Explains crossfit 1 week ago:
Well yes, but he meant like while you drove the car and while it was sitting in your garage.
- Comment on Explains crossfit 1 week ago:
A bartender a few months ago told me electric cars were way more dangerous than ice cars because the batteries emitted a gas that caused cancer. At first I thought he simply got confused and meant the opposite but no, he repeated it: the batteries in electric cars emit a gas that give you cancer.
I did not push the conversation any further.

Nice try globalists
- Comment on Obsidian’s Avowed 2025 Roadmap Includes New Abilities, Weapons, New Game Plus, And More 1 week ago:
I don’t really understand this mentality. Is it a younger gamer thing? I can enjoy games on their own merits without having to compare them with anything else. Besides, the best aspect of Avowed is its gameyness so to speak . It’s just the right length and pick up and play enough that busy people like me can play it and actually finish it. I’ve been meaning to play BG3 but I if I do I have to commit to it for a year at least, and that’s a hard pill to swallow. And I always finish every game I start, especially RPGs.
- Comment on Star Citizen’s new cash shop offerings provoked fresh pay-to-win and predatory monetization accusations | Massively Overpowered 1 week ago:
I’m convinced this game is a Lacanian social experiment.
Also how can a game be play to win if there is no game?
- Comment on Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I agree, the only one of these gimmicks that has been somewhat good is mega evolutions and they are still not great from a balance standpoint. Other than that I struggle to see how fundamentally different modern Pokémon games are from the old ones. There’s a lot of QoL stuff, but most of it is easily ignorable imo.
I think that you might want to look at rom-hacks like someone else suggested. You’ll probably find what you’re looking for in one of the hundreds that have been made.
- Comment on Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style? 3 weeks ago:
Bro what do you mean, if there’s a single franchise that has not changed its mechanics is Pokémon. Maybe you mean a game absent the gimmick mechanic they put in every gen? Or are you crazy enough to suggest we go back to the days before physical/special split?
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered - Bugs, Glitches, and Fixes 3 weeks ago:
Well I mean, you can choose not to use the powerful restoration spell. Especially with spell crafting you can create one that’s better tuned to the level of difficulty you like.
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered - Bugs, Glitches, and Fixes 4 weeks ago:
I have found that adept gets more balanced as you level up, I’m level 8 right now and I’ve had a few challenging fights. I had to reload before the arena fight with the twin bosmers because I simply cannot beat them. But yeah it is waay too easy at the start, which arguably is when it should be the most challenging.
Expert is just insane. Who ever plays in master really needs to get their head checked, I imagine fighting two enemies takes half an hour of hacking away while chugging stacks of health pots.
