  • This is a bad take in general, if your computer can’t handle running steam it probably can’t handle many games to begin with. It’s the least intrusive option presented so far in terms of DRM, and steam has done more for the Linux gaming market with Proton than any other company afaik. You have to launch steam to avoid games wanting to do things like denuvo or kernel level anti-cheat which is WAY worse, and those of us on Linux need steam running while we game for additional reasons. This complaint about not wanting to look at a storefront is just petty, especially when I’m pretty sure there are settings to open it directly to your library.





  • It’s equally possible you’re just assuming everyone who doesn’t share your opinion is a paid troll. I got called a Russian troll multiple times for saying Biden had no business being in this election and that we could do better. Imo it’s far more likely you’re talking to a child than a “paid troll” if their opinions don’t make sense and they dig their heels in. Assuming everything is some grand conspiracy instead of accepting that some people have different beliefs and opinions, or might just be that stupid, simply isn’t healthy. Trolls and such exist, sure, but I don’t think they are anywhere near as common as you’re implying.











  • Personally, I love Mekton Z. It shares a lot of mechanics with old school cyberpunk if you ever played that, and has an awesome and expansive system for building an entirely custom mecha. I still use it with a ton of homebrew conversion rules for my World of Darkness campaign (why are Mecha in my WoD game? Don’t ask, it’s complicated.) It’s got a lot of the same intricate style and flare as cyberpunk 2020 and it’s chrome books, so if you’re into that, highly recommended.
