As someone who only recently moved to somewhere with gigabit internet. At 15Mb/s (mind the mahoosive difference between megabits and megabytes), I can say I very much prospered from the significantly smaller repacks, not to mention the ease of mind of knowing my games were coming from a safe source. That said, even when living in the geographical 90s, my hardware was still competent. Even when I was running an i5 3470, I never encountered a decompression + installation time of more than 3 hours. I’m now running a hexacore Ryzen with 32G RAM and would struggle to use a whole hand for the amount of times I’ve spent more than a couple of hours on a Fitgirl installation so I’m not sure what you’re doing wrong but it’s not the repack.

DebatableRaccoon,

Exactly this. I’m getting plenty of downvotes and people claiming I’m talking crap but when I tried the Linux gaming life, I couldn’t even get Minecraft to work. Freaking Minecraft. And it only continued downhill from there. I make no claim that it’s not possible to game on Linux, only that it’s often such a chore that your entire planned gaming session can end up being a session of reading through forums filled with snide comments from pretentious Linux fanboys instead. I started as a console gamer and the fear of PC gaming was always that PC gaming can be a nightmarish tinker fest but Windows is much more click-and-play than Linux in my-and-most-people’s experience.

DebatableRaccoon,

And that’s 2023 on the phone, it would like its uncomfortable facts shown.

DebatableRaccoon,

Cool. Have fun with that philosophy.

DebatableRaccoon,

Aaand there’s the insult. Well done invalidating your already flimsy argument. Have a nice day

DebatableRaccoon,

Nobody cares

DebatableRaccoon,

As if the original response was any smarter 🤣
