Burnout 3 absolutely. Paradise was a great game but it’s format shift to open world effectively killed the series. Also made races really repetitive since they always went to the same places and you didn’t have an incentive to explore the rest of the map, which was full of really cool stuff like the quarry and train lines…

Anyway Burnout 3 is just the perfection of the classic formula. Shoutouts to Revenge for the traffic check mechanic and the cool new car designs.

Linux Mint. That’s always the answer. It’s lightweight, it’s simple, it’s easy, it does what you need. Even gaming. SomeOrdinaryGamers did a vidso on YT about installing it, it’s pretty easy!

Will? Will? Think again. Cars are already the worst when it comes to data collection and privacy. Not just Teslas, anything with Android Auto or similar. They can literally tell if you’re banging someone in the back seat. BMW made people pay a yearly subscription to access heated seats. I hate the modern automotive market.

But was he???

Does DOOM count? It’s been officially open sourced recently, even though it was already treated as such for decades.Either way, I can’t stop playing it, there’s 30 years of user created content to go through.

Using on a computer, Debian back in 2011. On my own machine I first went with an Ubuntu dual boot, then later switched to Linux Mint and haven’t switched to anything else since. I just love how Mint was able to give new life to the same old trooper laptop I had since 2013.

Me, installimg a few Flatpak apps, having them work for a while then suddenly break for no apparent reason, spend an enture day trying to fix them, only for an update acouple days later to fix it.

Everyone already mentioned Dark Souls and stuff like that. Some stages in classic Doom are also kinda like that.

But my personal nemesis is the mission Glatisant in Ace Combat Zero. Every AC game has it’s long score attack missions, but Glatisant is mandatory in every run of a game you have to clear at least 3 times, and it’s a 30 minute long ground assault on a snowy mountain range with poor visibility and covered in air defenses. The danger level never gets lower, and it’s easy to get shot down right at the end and having to start it all over again.

Always skip Blighttown, and the game still loses steam on Lost Izalith. Really the worst part of the game.

Ohh yeah going back through the tower again in DMC3 is annoying. It was already kinda hard to navigate before the scramble.

Smells like jet fuel? Splendid!
