it's kind of funny to me but as growing up I was all about Nintendo, as I got into my later teens and early adulthood I was all PC and steam, I'm 35 now with the family tons of responsibility obligations but I've noticed as I get older I've been gravitating closer back to Nintendo and their dependability for good quality gaming and time well spent, I guess because my time is such a high premium, I stick to the games I know that are going to deliver.

They will remove the fee if you go in there in person and raise hell. I've done it many times.

agreed, freely distributed music is free advertisement for your upcoming performances

I see your point, but I fundamentally disagree; I think it's the perfect place to make such suggestions because it's a community where that approach may not be the first idea.

I also think it's the perfect place to make such suggestions because you're guaranteed to have different opinions and outlooks, thus generating productive conversation.. if everyone is mature and respectful which in this particular example they were not.

I don't think I need to explain to lemmy users how to bypass paying for Windows lol

You're paying a few bucks to ensure maximum compatibility for the games that you love to play, this isn't rocket science.

I wasn't telling anyone to do anything, I was merely making a rational suggestion that would completely solve their issue Jesus Christ you people are insane.

I hate to break it to you, but that is not at all what I said. People join that community to talk about gaming on Linux, myself included... not to piss and moan about not being able to game on Linux.

You are actually the kind of person i see people complaining about in this thread, getting extremely defensive and aggressive when someone has a different opinion to you/challenging your beliefs, thus echo chamber lol

I was getting absolutely mocked the other day in the linux gaming community suggesting people install Windows on their machine, rather than whining about counter strike 2 not running on their LinuxOS.

Shewee, you're one angsty, yet passionate, and therefore respectable person. Good luck to you in your future endeavors, albeit how silly they may be.

I'm not telling you to do squat, I am simply stating facts.

I'm not calling you angsty because you don't like Windows, I'm calling you angsty because of your angsty energy in your responses.

I get it that you're passionate about Linux it's pretty obvious, I am passionate about Linux as well however I'm not delusional to the point where I deny windows as the ultimate gaming OS.

My original point and the reason you started conversing with me is that anyone on here complaining about their games not running on Linux should probably spend their time better by installing a copy of Windows on their machine LOL

I didn't join this community to read posts about people whining about compatibility issues for games that were designed to run on an entirely different operating system, that's a given and if you run into compatibility issues well that's the bed you made and you might as well sleep in it. I joined this community to read about other passionate Linux users who are enjoying playing games on Linux.

So angsty. Windows has its quirks, but it does gaming better than any other OS, and that's a fact, I'm sorry you don't know how to use Windows but that's a you problem, not a Windows problem.

I'm also not trying to troll, just being honest.
