    Ugh I have ONE game that’s 20 years old and does not work on Linux whatsoever. It’s an extremely important game to me because my best friends and I play together. We’re the only people who play it anymore. I can’t live without it, so I’m stuck on Windows for my main game machines.

    My other machines? Linux lawl

      I have the same issue. I have a 10 year old laptop that I use as well. My solution was to dual boot Linux mint & Win10. Most of the time I use Mint on that computer and load the windows only when playing that game.

        I did in another comment~ it’s a Half Life 1 mod called “The Specialists”. It’s amazing.

            Hahaha a person of culture.

            I’m huge on the Contender. I’m terrible at naked kung fu.

            I have the least experience amogus my friend group but sometimes I do a bit of blow while playing… Every time I do, I top the leaderboards. It’s wild. PED.

              I played this a lot back in the day online, and it was the absolute jam at LAN parties. Happy to hear people still keep the magic going

                Oh heck yeah. My mate has a server with like 200 maps or something ridiculous. All the servers online are dead unfortunately. When they spin up their server and we play, occasionally a random Ukrainian person will pop in hahaha
