I don’t see patient as “letting it slide [off]”.

These days I don’t really buy things ever, I mostly play free games if even that. Less hopeful of the industry, feel like I wasted money. Later purchases were more patient, but disappointment there only slowed it even further.

This is a me problem (and a lack of income), but I sort of see it as being patient to a fault.

something gets done and completed

I am talking within the context of mental/physical health issues and never having made anything close to a game. Personal despair, isolation, lacking viable options, collapse.

So it’s more of an existential crisis. I am guessing there are probably some idioms about learning/practicing survival skills when the ship you’re on is already sinking.

The topic and community have an unfortunate overlap for me, “patient” probably means I’m not doing it beyond some scattered attempts.

I have lurked with the ideas on different low-resource solo-dev specializations. I feel like the pieces are mostly there for me (Godot 4.4 will be closer to that), though I still need to put a lot of work in for no clear end-goal (I don’t really want to really sell something, even if I could).

And thinking about the future (gestures broadly) just makes me feel like

Personal issues sure don’t help.

At this point I think the greater issue is that fans didn’t learn from Starfield (or FO76, arguably FO4/Skyrim too at least enough for a trend line if you care about the RPG aspect of it). Why would Bethesda ever change course if they continue raking in money? It really seems like people aren’t even waiting for reviews.

I was going to say that it’d be a coin flip on if this actually has the same re-occurring bugs that the UOP fixed, though I see that it’s going to be 3rd-party so that may change the odds a bit.

Hey, I updated recently and it seems like it’s now fixed for me on X with driver version 565.77 (not that it’s necessarily the exact fix version, and it may be a systemd fix too).

I’m hesitant to swap DEs, XFCE has WM tweaks I really like (accessibility>hide title of windows when maximized) and on top of that I made my own ultra-minimal XFWM theme (frameless, 12px titlebar, works well for a rolled-up music player or watching a video in mpv looking like PiP).

I have the same issue on an Arch derivative with XFCE and a 1050Ti. From what I can find online this is related to a change with SystemD, though when I tried the suggested fixes they didn’t seem to work.

It has been a while since this issue started and updates seem to have not fixed it (though I am not currently updated). Annoying especially as I used to use my computer to wake up.
