Other News about gaming on Linux
Need advice, which OS to choose?
I have a mini PC with a Ryzen 7640HS and 32 GB of DDR5 RAM. What OS would be best for my setup?
I need the mini PC to stay in a low-TDP mode most of the time and run Docker with Immich. Then, when I press the power button on my DualSense controller, it should turn on the TV via CEC (I think?) and either stop Docker or limit its resource usage — and at the same time, raise the TDP and switch the system into a “gaming mode.” Stability isn’t important. Ideally, I’d like to use a keyboard and mouse only rarely, just for configuration and maintenance. (Translated with chatgpt)

Broken Arrow unplayable since EAC update
Sad that this is the experience for Linux players since the easy anti cheat update, the game randomly freeze almost every 2-3 minutes so it's unplayable in multiplayer.

Y’all I’ve been wanting to install a linux distro on an old laptop I have just to learn about it as I get more into Linux, what’s a distro y’all could recommend for beginners?
I’ve heard many options like Mint, Bazzite, PopOS and some others but the amount of options got me overthinking a bit, what’s one y’all would recommend the most?

Roblox mouse issues
So I'm trying to play Roblox on my Linux laptop and I installed sober and ran Roblox, the controls work fine and the game looks fine, but the touchpad mouse is buggy, I used the shift lock so I can look around but I can't move while doing so, on top of that when shift lock is active the cursor is such to the middle of the screen and is weirdly glitching.
Anyone have this issue or know a fix?

What Windows version should I dual-boot with linux to play steam demos?
Linux has been good so far. However, since I enjoy playing a lot of upcoming game demos, which usually are only supported by Windows, I want to go back and get Windows and do a dual boot on my laptop. (Yes, I know installing the OS's in separate hard disks is better, but I can't really do that on a laptop.)
I know there's been a bunch of news surrounding EOL of Windows 10, but I haven't really kept up with it so I'm not sure what would be best to install. Windows 11? I've heard there's also the Windows 10 LTSC?
What would be best if my main use case for the windows partition is to play games?
Note: Before switching to Linux, my laptop ran Windows 11.

Octopath 0 demo crashing on mint 22.2 cinnamon
I'm trying to play the new Octopath Traveler 0 demo, but it keeps giving me a fatal crash on boot. I assume it has something to do with unreal engine but I don't really think I have anything to go on right now.
I tried
- Using Wayland
- Forcing Proton
- Disabling Steam Input
None of them worked, so I'm at a loss. Anything would help, thanks. Attached picture is all it's giving me.

can't really run any games
I'm new to linux, I'm trying to move away from windows. I'm using mint cinnamon and I tried downloading and running monster hunter world and elden ring nightreign, none of them works. MHW gets to the capcom screen on proton 9 and then crashes and nightreign just closes after the anti cheat screen. I'm really lost on what to do, I don't wanna go back to windows, but I am getting a bit tired.
