😂 Well, at the beginning I was a bit lost and a friend played with me for like half an hour and then I knew the basics. After that you look things up that you want to know more about, but it's not necessary to have the wiki open all the time. The game actually has a quite clear progression and hints on first playthrough.

Highly recommend. I have finished so many worlds with and without mods and I still return to it once in a while.

Terraria

I heard that in Homer Simpson's voice.

Subnautica

I really liked it, I had the Flatpak version installed, but when opening larger text documents (with 20+ pages) it took forever to open them, so I stopped using it.

Thank you, this is great. I will keep it in mind next time I post something about NOYB.

45+ is "older people" to you?

One important part for gaming is the graphics card - I cannot comment on that particular one, but I would recommend searching it like "nvidia rtx 4070 + linux" so you can find advice and recommendations. You could also hop over to https://www.protondb.com/, select that card and see what most people are running. Or there is this https://linux-hardware.org/ page, where you find lots of info about whats being recommended.

Nvidia used to be problematic with Linux, but I also have an older Nvidia card and haven't run into any problems (yet). Also there's lots of new development in that area, I'm sure it's gonna be ok. Also some distros offer preinstalled Nvidia drivers that you simply select in a driver manager - that for example is the case for Linux Mint.

Keep at it, you got this and there's so many people and resources online to help. Best of luck!

Glad to hear so many volunteered so quickly, awesome!
