Hi everyone! So I just switched to Linux and I am a little unsure of what to play on my laptop.

It’s a presumably decent laptop, 16gb of ram and Iris Xe, but I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim.

I’m looking into things like emulation, finally tackling my Itch.io backlog, and bringing out old classics.

I like RPGs and text-based choose your own adventure games, so if you have any recommendations I’d appreciate it!

    I think most mods are reasonably compatible, but I don’t really use a ton. OpenMW even has graphic herbalism built in these days, so the only thing I run now is a mod to delay the Dark Brotherhood attacks. I think the main issue is mods that require the Script Extender (MWSE).

      I don’t know where their feature list is anymore, buy I do recall a dev update where they said they had plans to incorporate MWSE or MWSE compatibility into the engine natively. The roadmap had that as a far-future after all native implementations were complete, so time will tell.
