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!

    Wait, what? Is that why everyone’s recommending steam deck games? I assumed Steam Deck verified games required something like, an okay GPU. Its actually the voltage? That definitely makes my life easier, lmfao.

      By the Steam Deck’s site, the verification means that:

      • It plays well with the Deck’s inputs
      • Can use the Deck’s native resolution or similar (1280x800 or 1280x720) without issues
      • It “just works” without having to tinker with the game
      • Every component of the game is supported by Proton if running a non-native game
