It needs a certain level of individuality and personality of the creator that sets it apart from other, already existing works of art.

In Germany only stuff that has a certain level of creativity (Schöpfungshöhe) can be under copyright.

It looks like an issue with the premade Lutris installer/config package.

Can you try downloading the installer from GOG and install manually in Lutris via the “Install a Windows Game from an executable” (the + button on the top left) option?

There you can choose “Windows XP 32bit” as an Installer preset, this should provide the best compatibility.

“The term boomer shooter has a rather nebulous origin, and it likely started as a joke. Online pedants often point out that the original first-person shooters were developed by Gen-Xers like John Carmack (born 1970) and John Romero (born 1967), not Baby Boomers. However, “boomer shooter” uses the slang version of the term boomer, as a stand-in for any older person who is closed-minded and out of touch—so please, direct those complaints elsewhere.”

I have not seen the video but I think the correct modern answer nowadays is: “boomer shooter”

Comparing modern game with games from the olden days is a little bit like comparing a savery steam pump with a modern internal combustion engine. Sure the general principles are identical but the complexity of the system is a manifold of the other.

I really love retro games, i have very fond memories of the C64 and SNES, but i am not a fan of the glorification of those games. Only a small part of the old games are still fun today and lots of them have bugs. Secret of Mana on the SNES for example has a fun bug where leveling all weapons and spells to max can create a overflow error in the final fight of the game, which removes the mana hero completely from the game, rendering the last fight impossible because only the mana hero can damage the mana dragon significantly.

The list in the GitHub is the reference as far as I know https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton?tab=readme-ov-file#runtime-config-options

But the NVAPI change is not listed yet.

Open Source Drivers for Nvidia Cards are still very early and very limited. The best way to go forward would most likely be to solve whatever conflict exists on your system with the proprietary drivers and then to use those. Or to get a AMD graphics card.

Having Aphantasia doesn’t mean that a person has no imagination, he just has no inner eye, no way to see the imagination in his mind.

I know that because I have lots of imagination but have Aphantasia. World building for roleplay and stories is where I am really good, as long as I don’t have to do anything with a visual component like drawing

Lots of Palworld, it really is fun to grind XP, complete Towers and Dungeons or to create your perfect forced labor camps for your mindbroken pals.

I can’t stand Witcher 3 but played Witcher 1 not long ago and I really loved it. It is very oldcore and the controls are a b***h sometimes but it is a really great game with a great story. I hope Witcher 2 is as good too, it is on my next to play list very high.

I never really got into 3D Zelda (but had some fun with most of them) and Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom are a absolute low for me mostly because of the ugly as hell art. Both games have the worst cell shader look I have seen in a very long time and it makes both games unplayable for me. I get kind of sea sick playing them (I tried at a friend’s place who loves both games).
