What are your options?

Cemu or original hardware? I love playing the original on the Wii U but it’s cool upscaling to 1440p

Picked up Paper Mario TTYD on Switch to see what all the hype is about, and yeah honestly all the OG fans were right about it. It’s the best one I’ve played in the series by a longshot.

Without context, I would assume Sticker Star and Color Splash released before TTYD - as if they were still figuring out where to go with the series, and would eventually evolve into something better as technology advanced. Then TTYD comes along, and not only has more mechanical depth, but also so much more life and creativity in it.

I like the idea of rolling release in theory, but stability is extremely important to me because I use Linux as my daily driver.

EndeavourOS and Manjaro aren’t really going to do much to address your desire to use terminal more than Mint IMO, either; most mainstream distros like that emphasize usability first and foremost.

If you’re looking to really get under the hood, go with Arch ans follow a guide so you don’t bork anything too badly. Arch uses a different package manager than Mint/Ubuntu, so some of the commands might look different if you’re not following Arch-specific guides, but terminal is terminal is terminal in many cases. You can run Steam on Arch, and building the core functionality on your own will get you acquainted with terminal.

Although I’ve used everything from Arch to Zorin, and eventually you will have to use terminal for something. Just depends on what your longterm goals are, what usability you will need to rely on quickly, and how you think you’ll get to those goals most efficiently.

Sounds like you should just use Mint, especially if you tried and like it. It’s customizable, GUI friendly, it’s based on Ubuntu so most guides for either will work, and you can download Steam to it and play native games (or Windows games through Proton).

I don’t know what you’re looking for, that Mint doesn’t provide. You can download different DEs or window managers, you can write your own bash scripts, and the core functionality for regular use is already there.

I’ve had Kenshi on my wishlist for a long time, and I haven’t pulled the trigger. What’s your favorite part about it? Most of what I know is that it’s punishing and has deep roleplaying opportunities, but I don’t know a lot of the specifics.
