The nvidia driver has had this bug for a year now, still unfixed. Games will randomly crash with an Xid 109 error in dmesg. Some people (including myself) are unable to play games like Cyberpunk, Resident Evil 2-3-4-7-8 and Metro Exodus. And it’s not linked to proton either, it sometimes also crashes xorg itself, forcing a reboot. I’m starting to think nvidia will never bother fixing it.
I’m slightly claustrophobic, but it has never impacted my life. Elevator? Fine. Tiny closet? Fine. But a cave where you have to crawl for more than a few seconds? I’d die right there.
In black desert’s case, there’s no chance they would ever allow anyone to play without a kernel anti cheat, which EAC doesn’t allow on linux. The game is literally all grind, if bots could run on linux it would absolutely ravage the already shit economy.
If you’re refering to the time they removed quickness/alac combo, it was absolutely deserved. Back then, the only 2 supports were chrono druid, now you have much more variety. The nerf to distortion share was also deserved as it trivialized many raid mechanics. Besides these two things, chrono is still very viable, even in the hardest of content. PvP/WvW roaming burst is great, support in zerg is still very common. It can also be played as a decent power alacrity dps or pure dps in PvE.
It’s true however some patch notes are kinda bad, like a few months ago deadeye went from full dps 44k benchmark to quickness support 49k to all builds below 40k. This patch balance is really good however, and as someone who played since launch, I’d say it’s better than it’s ever been.
I don’t particularly remember the changes you’re refering to unfortunately, mesmer wasn’t the class I played the most. I agree however that it’s annoying that you get new skills with the spec but practically no build uses them.
I mostly only do weekly raid cms and WvW nowadays and honestly I find that you don’t need the “meta build” most of the time. For example, soulbeast has access to stances and while no meta build uses them, I often use dolyak stance for stability because I know my healer will likely forget, or the moa stance to pad out boon duration that my squad is likely missing. The dps loss is negligible anyway, but builds don’t mention that.
I disagree with buffing everything else rather than nerfing one thing however. This is how you get powercreep, and the game already has too much as it is.
As for NA-EU toxicity, I never played on EU so I wouldn’t know, but one thing’s for sure, EU is way more elitist. They will kick new players the instant they fail a mechanic, ask for li… Asking for li in raids died years ago on NA, still ongoing on EU…
