I just want a vehicle game that is open world, with roads and trails, the vehicles don't have to be licensed. I just want to travel and explore, basically a road trip simulator. The Crew, Forza Horizon, and NFS Heat/Unbound are the closest I can get, I don't care for the density, just distance. This is why I know that it will never be a reality, because without having mechanics, would make the game boring to many.

Basically a remake or continuation of Fuel (2009), I really enjoyed the vastness of the world, it wasn't anything really special, but to me I had so much fun exploring and seeing the distance of the massive world(5,560 square miles/14,400 square kilometers). The many regions around the map were diverse and there was 16 player multiplayer where others just popped in and out as you moved around, I didn't really care for it much, but it was fun for group road trips or adventures.

I love the positivity!

I'm actually quite excited hearing from everyone, gaming on Linux has changed so much in...oh it's been 8 years since 2015. I will probably keep one small drive for a minimal Windows installation, just for the few outliers, however looking at ProtonDB shows that most of my games will work just fine or with a small tweak.

I do have AMD, so that's nice that it will be a better experience. Recently AAA games have been very underwhelming, so I have been cutting back on new AAAs until later and when on sale. I play Guild Wars 2 (MMO) quite often, but I hear that it will play fine as it doesn't have any anticheat. I am not into any competitive shooters, so I will be find on that front. Looking at the games on ProtonDB show that this will be a smooth experience, and I'll be fine with some games not working or performing below average.

Thank you for the experience that you had. That's why I will use my spare drive to test it, this will allow me to experiment with it and see how it performs.

I like your idea of making a list. If all goes well I might just move over, and keep Windows on a small disk for any outliers.

Thanks, this makes me feel much better about it.

That makes sense, thanks for the advice. I don't play any competitive games, so anti-cheat is a bit less of a problem.

Thank you for this, really helpful advice, ProtonDB looks really useful. I tend to be a bit more patient with games and buy later when on sale. I might just wipe Windows and reinstall it with the bare necessities for only the games that I need it for.

Thank you. The issue with Arch Linux was more about the performance and some games at the time just not working, which looking at ProtonDB shows they work fine now. I really enjoyed my time with Arch, all the customization and manually installing applications made it feel more personal and really "mine". I will probably give a few distros a try before really settling in.

I use names of mice from popular movies and TV shows. I use this list.

I know it's not useful, but it's fun to me. I would never use it in a professional environment.
