Steam version of BG2 EE worked flawlessly for me. It's been discounted down to like 3€ a few times

It's not that great tbh. I spent maybe 6 hours in it and didn't get hooked. With BG3 however, I'm at 60 hours and I can't put it down

It's like this in all Scandinavian countries.

  • 6-7 weeks paid vacation.

  • Free healthcare (except dental. Also we still pay for prescription drugs, just not insane prices).

  • 37 hours per week.

  • Almost equal parental leave (you're forced to take a month off work, paid of course, mothers a bit more, but then split is as you want).

And then keep in mind that we pay 40-60% taxes depending on income.

Most of Europe and large parts of Asia has good railways compared to USA. It's not that the developed world has good railway systems, it's just that USA has a completely broken public transport system. But planes and trucks go brrr

most advanced rail systems in the world

As a Scandinavian: LOL

It takes 5 minutes to install Arch manually so why even bother using scripts?

In that case I think it's mostly fine

It's legal to spy on your employees in USA?

I'm beginning to think all their tinfoil conspiracy theories aren't completely baseless..

What do you mean by "the user's DNS" exactly??

Show me some proof of any significant performance gain from these configuration changes, then. You also forgot to mention running Zen kernel as well, which might actually provide some benefits.

Nvidia are notorious for releasing broken Linux drivers.. You probably won't notice this unless you actually update frequently. Arch is bleeding edge so they often fly right through without much testing.

You are right that Fallout 4 was better, but not by much imo. I just remember the huge disappointment I felt with Skyrim and the Fallout games, being a huge fan of Fallout 1/2, and shooters in general. Everything just felt slow and wonky.

It just never felt like a priority, which is totally fine and lots of people praise their products like they're the pinnacle of video games, the engine just ruins it for me.

I'm actually surprised to not be downvoted to hell. If you air this opinion in front of casual gamers, like in /r/gaming, they go full Bethesda-fanboy-mode.

If you like Bethesda games for their worlds, it's probably gonna be great. To me, the gameplay in their engine just feels really bad.

The movement, FOV, aiming, shooting, etc. just feels like they spent a few hours on it for an alpha for Morrowind and it hasn't changed one bit since.

When you're used to well made FPS engines, the gameplay of Skyrim and Fallout games just feels super bad, like tech demo-level bad.

I hope they finally made some changes, but they didn't for Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout NV, or Fallout 4, so my hope is running out.
