My guess is that some genres are going to be more problematic due to more extensive use of anti cheat. What are some of the games you’re having trouble with?

Well… if you want most of the main story but without the gameplay, someone had made a movie out of the cutscenes awhile back.
I ended up quitting on the final boss. Partly because I was gut punched by an unexpected plot point just prior. But also because it was the third big fight since the last save point and I got lost on the mechanics. I caught the ending through the movie I found.
Seems to my ignorant eyes that we could always somehow split the power received into more manageable units, even if it has to be splitted a million times, 🤷♂️.
Idle games or incremental games are my go-to for casual play. At the moment I’m playing through NGU Idle mainly because It’s a super slow burn but unlocks lots of goofy features over time. I’ve been progressing for a couple years now.

That’s a really good illustration of scale. The last time i saw a demo like this it used 3D rendered cubes. There’s something wonderful about using an actual, physical medium for this.
I feel like vanilla GNOME is intentionally a barbones common workflow, and that extensions are how you customize to fit your needs.
For example, I often switch between desktop speakers and headphones (where the dongle is always connected), and sometimes other audio devices. I installed the sound input/output chooser so I don’t have to go into Settings every time I need to switch inputs. It saves me multiple clicks. But I get that not everyone needs immediate access to change audio devices, so why clutter the UI?
I’ve used both vanilla GNOME and the post-Unity Ubuntu spin on it. In either case I’ve grown accustomed to the Activities screen, quickly accessing it pressing the Super key, and using it to switch windows and manage full screen apps on different monitors.
If I remember correctly, there’s already a system tray icon that lets you adjust volume on your current devices. The extension adds the ability to switch devices from that drop down instead of drilling into the settings app.
