Even just reading this description makes me kind of jumpy. That’s how memorable that video was I guess.

Yeah, they certainly aren’t cheap, so I get that…

Thanks for the heads up, I also bought the 1€ shader course. Given the price I won’t be too upset if it isn’t amazing, but I’ll lower my expectations anyway.

I previously did some of their Blender courses by Grant Abbitt and they were very good for a beginner like me, so it’s disappointing to read their Godot courses aren’t that great.

For Godot, GDQuest seems to have the best quality from my experience so far, especially when it comes to not teaching bad practices.

Was LinVST among the tools you tried? It works really well for my purchased VSTs.

Saving this comment just in case I ever end up in a similar situation. Very well explained!

This is actually a really good development. So far I have found that the best way to run non-Steam games is to add them to Steam because using Proton outside of Steam is not recommended.

So if Steam ever becomes worse for whatever reason, it is good to know there will be alternatives.

Agreed, I have Spotify premium for the convenience, but I have no illusions about where that money goes, which is why I go to concerts and buy vinyl records when possible.

This what I do and it works pretty flawlessly. I’ve never used Bottles or Lutris since I started adding the games to Steam. It also takes care of controller support.

This is more or less what I wish Beyond Good And Evil had been. The combat in that game wasn’t good but I liked the idea of having to photograph evidence and getting photos of wildlife on the side to earn some money. It wasn’t nearly as fleshed out as your idea though.

I have found that some games that are problematic on Windows actually run better on Linux through Proton. Performance in general can be slightly worse or slightly better depending on the game, but these days it definitely rivals Windows. That said, if you like multiplayer games; those usually do not work well on Linux, especially when they have anticheat. Also, native Linux versions are often broken, the Windows version through Proton usually works better.

Can’t speak to the GoXLR, you might be able to find some info on linuxmusicians.com. I got my Tascam audio interface and my Mooer GE200 working out of the box though (with less latency than on Windows).
