Monster Hunter is a great series. Not terribly stoked about the endgame in Rise though. I think my ideal game would be something like Generations Ultimate but with the overall clunk removal that world/rise did.

Inside every human is two wolves.

Only rarely is a human inside two wolves.

Dunno, but I’m looking to find out. Give me 2 all the way.

I looked it up a bit ago because I was curious, and apparently Mod Organizer 2 works well on linux.

Also, not to shill too hard, but I like MO2 way more than Vortex (official successor to Nexus Mod Manager). I feel like MO2’s got a slight learning curve up front, but after that, it’s way more capable and easier to use than Vortex, especially as number of mods increases.

Ah, makes sense. I kinda figured it wouldn’t be that easy to solve, but I had hope that it might have a ‘cheap’ workaround.

Noted. both my monitors are 75hz and capable of variable refresh rate, so in theory they don’t need to have different refresh rates for my setup, but I imagine playing games and watching a video might throw a slight wrench in that. Just out of curiosity for my options, would plugging my second monitor directly into my Mother board help mitigate any issues on that front (instead of having both plugged into my GPU)?

Awesome, thanks!

I’m definitely not short on drives, so I’m not gonna bother with any partition shenanigans. The trouble is I only have one NVME drive, so it’s just a question of which OS gets my best drive, but that’s pretty minor honestly.

You mentioned Fallout 4, do you have experience in playing with mods on linux? That’s another unknown for me, as I like modding and have no idea how that might transfer over.

Noted about the USB drive, I’ll definitely have that available, thanks!

Thanks for the recommendations, and another thanks for giving a quick rundown on them too! These comments have been wildly helpful for essentially laying down some framework in my head about it.

Could you expand on that a bit? What do you mean by ‘work better’?

For context, my main monitor is the one I want working well (any gaming is exclusively on my main). My second monitor is only used for more screen space, and occasionally playing videos (I don’t care if it’s high quality if it’s on my second).

Hell yeah, thanks. I’ll likely not use bazzite then (I’m less concerned with breakage if it means I have more options). Is there any other distros that you might recommend? I don’t know what’s out there, and it seems like a lot.

Also, thanks for the links! I’ll check around there too.

I figure this is a halfway decent place to ask, and it’s on my mind. If there’s a better place to ask, I’d love a point in the right direction, cause navigating lemmy well still eludes me.

Looking to test out linux for the first time and I know fuck-all about the basics, and I have a couple of questions:

Again, if there’s a better place to ask (I’m sure there is lol), I’d appreciate a mention for that too.
