@PerfectDark Those are some really good choices. I think I loved NFS: Underground 2 the most of those by far. I really loved the customization aspect of it, but also it gave a sort of semi-open world where you could just drive around the city doing what you wanted and just enjoying the custom vehicle in general without timers and etc.

@PerfectDark Oh wow, I love that this thing is slightly smaller than the Switch Lite. I sure wish I could afford this…

@PerfectDark I used to really like Lutris. Clean, simple, and very minimal (unlike, for example, Heroic.) But it has been kind of falling behind in a lot of ways lately. It still defaults to their ancient implementation of WINE instead of Proton (or did last I used it) and it seemed to be really hard even to get it to properly use a modern Proton/Wine-GE somehow. (I couldn’t say exactly why, but somehow it just doesn’t work as well.)

While they keep things small and mostly do the real work themselves it will be fine, but it seems people who push it like this ultimately go the “vibe coding” route. I hope not. I’d still like to see Lutris remain on the map, but if it reaches the point they start handing it off to Claude it will inevitably eventually become unsustainable. We’ll see.

@PerfectDark Oh wow. Somehow I never even heard about this. In its own crazy way it’s kind of fascinating.

I do actually kind of wish I had been there when that happened. I didn’t get to play WoW very much and not until much later.
