I don’t think that is true. In his final video (Source, trigger warning of course) he mentioned his failing health, chronic pain and a perceived betrayal by the speedrunning community. Not a word about the lawsuits in there.

The article makes it pretty clear. Jobst always implied the lawsuit was over the cheating allegations, which wasn’t the case. He claimed in one of his videos that Mitchell drove another Youtuber to suicide by suing him and forcing him to pay a large sum of money. As it turns out, that Youtuber didn’t have to pay anything at all. The settlement was just to take his existing videos down and not make any further videos about Mitchell. Honestly seems justified to me and not a good look for Jobst.

Mitchell sucks, but falsely claiming that he drove a person to suicide is a dick move to say the least.

According to the logs, it’s trying to use your laptop’s integrated Intel chip instead of your nvidia GPU. You’ll have to set it to use your actual GPU, not sure where to do that in Garuda Linux though.

I wouldn’t say they’re “crawling back to Steam”, not like they’ve ever left. This is clearly for their new Handheld/Big Screen UI. They’re seeing the success of Steam Deck and Steam OS and are trying to build a competitive experience on Windows.

I think power efficiency should play a bigger role when evaluating the value of this card. In terms of frames per watt, it’s among the most efficient you can get, while the XT is pretty much the opposite.

They’re clearly rectangular! _/s

Yeah, but back then they had the good excuse of having created a very innovative RPG with a level of depth and simulation rarely seen before. The remake devs aren’t building another engine from scratch or anything, like PB did. And it’s not like they’re intentionally recreating the janky UI of the original. The new UI is very different and mostly intended for controllers. The movement is also bad in almost the opposite way that Gothic 1’s movement was “bad” (floaty vs stiff). Wouldn’t have minded so much if they tried to do a remake that was as faithful as possible to the original - instead they’re trying to modernize everything but aren’t doing a very good job at it.

I’ll give it another go, but my initial impressions of this demo unfortunately aren’t great. Very poorly optimized, buggy, and janky UI. The movement is super floaty, with a ton of input delay and slow animations. While the German voiceacting is good, it’s very noticable in many dialogues that it was translated from English. The environments are well crafted, but the overall graphical presentation has issues, in terms of lighting, reflections and especially the forced AA which causes tons of artifacts. The remade music, however, is wonderful. Really gives it that Gothic-feeling. I hope the devs can still turn this around, because there is definitely potential.

I’ve played the first two hours now, and so far it’s good but not exceptional IMO. Graphics look beautiful and it runs very well, even on my somewhat aging GPU. The setting and plot are interesting so far. The combat is fluid and fun. However, for an RPG, it’s very streamlined and light on actual Roleplaying elements as well as immersion. It’s the kind of game that reminds you that it’s just a video game all the time. Both when it comes to the design of the areas you travel through as well as audiovisual elements, like lootable objects playing a sparkle sound-effect etc.

I use Organic Maps regularly and I’d love to get rid of Google Maps eventually, but they don’t really fulfill the same purpose to me. It’s awesome for hiking (which Google Maps is useless for) but meh for Navigation and almost useless for finding information about shops, restaurants etc in an area.
