I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.
Logitech hardware used to be good, but even that’s gone to shit. Got tired of their awful mechanical mice switches failing and switched to a Razer mouse with optical switches, no regrets.
Fallout New Vegas is one of those games that I wish I liked but just don’t. It’s hard to get invested in the story or world with weapons and movement that lifeless (maybe the wrong word, can’t think of a better description. Robotic? Stiff? Like you and your guns are made out of cardboard? You get the idea).
Are there any must-have mods that improve the gameplay that I’m just totally out of the loop on?
It’s insane to me that this is a hill Sony is willing to die on. So much goodwill to throw away just to collect a bit more data on users.
Just remember, if they’re willing to enforce this nonsense, you can be sure that there will be more nonsense to come. “Sorry everyone, Sony decided we need lootboxes! But our team is on the side of the players!”
I hate modern AAA games, I’m gonna go try out that new Stardew Valley update.
The last device I own that doesn’t run an open source operating system is an iPad. I basically use it as a laptop most of the time with a keyboard case, but I do like being able to take just the screen to use as a drawing/note-taking tablet. I treat it more like a “convertible” device rather than a tablet alone....
There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time. (lemmy.world)

Best "convertible" or 2-in-1 device to run Linux on?
