I dont really remember much about the first game besides the mission in the post, but i do remember driver 2 being really difficult game.

That one mission where you have to hijack the truck or something like that, and the car that is pursuing you will just kill you 5seconds into the mission if you slowed down for a turn lol

After 50 resets of the mission i just desided that i will not even try to follow the truck if it takes 2/3 possible paths, just reset and hope for easy route and then T-bone the truck hoping to complete the mission in the first 10seconds.

Or the mission that asks you to take out like 3 cars across the map, with a really strict timelimit, and sometimes the car you hit takes 50% damage per hit, sometimes 5%.

I was definitely going insane at some point in the playthrough.

Also ReDriver 2 PC port of driver 2 exists and is fully playable.

Ah yes, I have had that happen before. See that gap between two cars and squeeze through to avoid collision, but somehow manage to hit both of the cars and your car is in someones backyard pool. While the cars you "squeezed through" blast their horn for some reason... (in gta)

Yeah I would say on most pages it doesn't work.

But just today I read some F1 news and the page asked me to pay and it just zapped away.

It's fynny when there is a full screen banner that tells you to pay to read the article and then you just use the uBlock origin zapper to delete that and read through the article.

I dont really understand what you mean about my priorities being horrible. My priority is for my PC to do what i then and there need it to do, if it is to display my headset battery lever or create bootable usb media.

And I didnt say abandon, I said i like linux and will use it.

I told you that i am tech savvy, but instead of taking my word you decipher my message and say it is the opposite?

I am not the god of tech, but if a person who writes their own wifi drivers is 10 on the scale, and my father who can barely use a non smart phone is 1, i am a solid 8 on the tech savvy scale.

Slay queen.

Yeah linux handles many games fine with proton and stuff, but there are too much things you give up.

Razer mouse with multiple side buttons? No GUI for setting that up, download some other hotkey software and make a custom profile on that. Open razer for RGB control.

Corsair headphones? No software, not able to get task bar icon about battery level.

Sometimes play racing games? Too bad there is no drivers for your wheel, except one that was made by some guy 5 years ago that got 60% of the features working, and to change settings you have to edit text files.

A new multiplayer game comes out that doesnt work on linux and all your friends are playing? Soon you find yourself just booting straight to windows instead of sometimes hopping on windows to play some game.

Connect a ps4 controller and linux sets it as default audio device and there is no GUI option to disable that, just gotta switch back when connecting the controller.

Boot to OS and open steam, no games are installed? Oh right you need to go mount the drive first. Watch a 10 minute youtube video where some dude explains how to auto mount drives.

Want to create a bootable windows USB and the tool that came with the OS tells you the usb stick is in use and that it needs to be unmounted, do that and then it tells you there is no usb there, because ya unmount it. Try another software but it wont select the iso file. Try google for help, top answer is "borrow your friends windows computer"

I like linux and learned a lot when using it, and will use it in the future on machines that dont need anything extra. But for my habits it just felt silly to be there, and constantly switch back to play games, or stay on linux and have a worse experience doing something, like driving games.

I am also real tech savy person and can overcome most of these hurdles, but most of my friends would never be able to overcome some of these things. I also found that many questions about linux on some forums are answered with stuff like "why on earth do you want that? Just dont do that or do something else" and that was kind of a bummer as well.
