I haven't purchased anything in months because my job pays badly, and fuck this capitalist hellscape, but if I was going to buy more games steam is the most likely source. Linux support, cloud saves, game recording, remote play, fairly unobtrusive client, drm at the seller's discretion.
gog is best
Plus with rare exceptions you will always be able to continue to play all of those games on any hardware you can install steam at no additional cost.
Glares at FF7 Rebirth with an Nvidia GPU
That worked for me fine on Linux (pop!_os). Remake worked on the steam deck, too.
Which GPU? Anything above I think a 10xx has an issue with the shaders the game uses. There's supposedly a workaround for arch (CachyOS) but I couldn't get it working.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER. Got it before I got laid off and before prices went super crazy.
I'm only playing on a ~~1k~~ 1080p monitor so i wasn't pushing it very hard, but it ran without issue.
1k is pretty expensive for a monitor, that better be high res and high refresh rate lol
Turns out for some reason I thought the old 1920x1080 kind of display was 1k. Nope. That's not what you call that.
Not the other person, but I'm using a 4090 on Ubuntu 26.04 and haven't had any issues with Remake or Rebirth.
And solid customer service.
I bought 2 things today, totalling £3.47, and one was a 6 dlc pack for a game I've got 1000ish hours in. Honestly should have just saved the £2 on the dlc pack, it's just a bunch of furniture.
