It is also helpful to know that if you make any mistakes in you character build, you can respec your class and ability scores very early in the game for a fairly low price. The things that you cannot change are your origin, race or appearance, but these don’t have such a great impact (unless you take the Dark Urge origin and find a bit too bloody for your tastes - in which case you have to start over)

Personally, I never played DND but I did play a bunch of RPGs before (such as the Pathfinder games on PC) and I love checking out character build guides. The learning curve of BG3 was pretty smooth for me.

This, or the Tray Icons: Reloaded extension for GNOME, which adds the Steam icon to the tray bar. From there, you can click it and it shows a list of the installed games.

If you are new to Linux, GNOME has quite a different feel from your usual Windows flow. I personally love it and would never swap back.

(Off-topic, but If you would be interested in a gaming-oriented distro, I would recommend Nobara Linux - the official version looks fairly familiar for Windows users and it also comes with a bunch of gaming-related stuff preinstalled like Steam, wine dependencies, mesa drivers for AMD, etc)

Since people have suggested virtual machines, I wanted to mention that most of them will not be using your GPU (and GPU passthrough is tricky), so they won’t be helpful if you are using GPU-intensive apps.

On the other hand, moving form Adobe Illustrator to Inkscape was a pretty smooth transition for me, and I can’t say I miss any of Adobe’s features (except the Shape builder, which is also coming to Inkscape). However, I’m not a professional illustrator - it’s mostly a hobby for me and I only use it for creating icons, simple illustrations and infographics

Gaming experience has been really good, though! (Steam/Proton and yuzu for emulating some Switch games)

Thank you! Today I started my first adventure into emulating and I had a few hiccups along the way. Most of the links I found for troubleshooting were from the subreddit r/yuzu, which was closed. I’m still impressed how BotW worked right off the bat - was expecting the Linux experience to hit me, but lately things just… work!
