Have you or someone close to you converted to Linux recently (with Windows 10's end of support)? (lemmy.ca)

I'd like to hear people's journeys and motivations from people who switched over the last few months, and if there were particular challenges that were faced.

Ya, I totally get you. I had no idea what it was, got into the tech test 2 based off a YouTube suggestion. Played for a weekend and was immediately hooked. The games got some clear magic. This Server Slam had my friends foaming too, even the ones that weren't normally into PVP style games and now we're taking Friday off to play :D

I hope Embark finds a lot of success with Arc Raiders because I could totally see it being a 10 year game if it's well supported after launch.

I didn't get a chance to see what long-term progression systems were available.

It looks like they were going with the Helldivers 2 Warbonds mini-battlepass system which has some mechanical unlocks (a silencer in the Server Slam) and some cosmetics. If they can keep adding new items and mechanics at a good pace then it can go a long way towards keeping the gameplay fresh.

Either way, I bought it so I'll be playing on launch. :D
