I have Radeon 6900 rx and it games sweet on Linux. I’ve played games on Windows with it too without issue (dual boot).

Generally, AMD is king on Linux, Nvidia is suffering (had drivers updates break OS installs). Nvidia is only really if you want ray tracing or Cuda, and I’ve never needed to.

OpenSuse Tumbleweed is my distro of choice. Up to date kernel. Rolling distro. Stable.

You’re in the UK? Lol

It’s a double edged sword. The channels are bridged across to Matrix, and the poll ran in multiple places, but 90%+ of the player community are on Discord.

I have no idea. It’s quite subjective.

You can install packages and remove them and it resolves dependencies, just using different commands…

It’s a strategy, it requires planning and thinking. Comparing to FPS is crazy. Pick up gun and shoot.

HoMM3 is quite simple. Get towns and upgrade them. Make monsters. Kill. Most stuff you can learn and figure out as you play. It was the first game of that type I played. I’m not great at it, but that’s more because it’s hard to master, but you can still play a reasonable game.

It’s worth persisting as its one of the best games made and people still play it decades later.

I think WINE recommend an up to date distro due to rapidly changing stuff needing up to date software and kernel. I think Debian wouldn’t be great for that. I’d personally recommend OpenSuse. Rolling, up to date and great with KDE. Good luck.

I would second up to date distros for the same reasons. I think the WINE guys suggested as much. I’d personally go OpenSuse as it’s rolling, up to date, solid and great for KDE.
