I wanna get into 2d games a bit more. Mainly things like RPGs or metroidvanias (or just single palywr games in general) For devices I can emulate older systems and I also have a switch. Any recommendations?

    Just Windows PC. There’s a few of them that people have tried to get to run on Linux over the ages, but success rates varies.

      Fallout 1 and 2 should definitely run on Linux even with some patches

      BG1&2 I heard some success stories but haven’t tried myself

        It’s been a while since I gave it a shot myself. I haven’t fiddled with “The Great Old Ones” on Linux since back in the late 90’s. So you’re likely more of a proper authority on the matter than I.

        @jinwk00 @Faydaikin pretty sure I played both, Fallout 1+2, on Linux before too.

        The more recent ones run too, of course. This is from my Lutris Launcher listing ~272h of playtime on this installation - last played tonight 😁
