Often, it’s not really the “old games” but the “not the marketed shit”. One of my favourite gems is Outward. It looks and feels a bit clunky, but you breathe love and passion for making games on every corner.

Definitely try solo stuff with plugy. I installed D2 for a nice bnet session of baalruns but bnet was a bit riddled fuckhole. I tried plugy before uninstalling and it got me hooked on solo play for 3 more years.

I wasn’t sure about the state of Slowroll. In terms of stability, Tumbleweed ist absolutely fine. It’s the less frequent, but not super low frequent update cycle that’s interesting to me. I could always just ignore updates on TW, but I’ve got the urge to run the updates if there are any.

It’s available, but still experimental I think.

I’m running TW and it’s great. If you don’t want a rolling release, OpenSUSE created Slowroll, that is supposed to release major updates every one or two months, which would probably be my go to if I were to start over.

What? A task gets easier the more experience you got with it? I think you’re in for a Nobel price or something.
