I do the package update stuff every session or so. It's not a priority for me but the GUI has a little notification, so I just click it sometimes.
Bigger updates like moving to a new LTS of the distro- I put off. I'm on pop!_os now and mint previously.
I really liked the Shadowrun games and would have liked more. I'd especially like something more open ended like the Sega Genesis Shadowrun game, where you take semi randomized missions and pursue your own goals.
I think there might be a mod that does something like that, but whatever one I tried was kind of janky at the time (years ago)
Also I never thought I'd like the rigger archetype, but they're very effective in these games. Little robot buddies go bang bang!
