I know im not the only one, trying to get gaming on linux, but im different 😀 I am hooked on Flightgear, (the flight gear group on lemmy seems dead) but im right now playing it (still as a novice) on my Lenovo T470 with Fedora. So well its running okay, but the graphics, especially the suroundings just dosnt look like wheni see thoese vids online about flightgear. So i was wondering, and dreaming about a desktop PC, running linux, that is capable of delevering better graphics in Flightgear.i dont know anything about building a pc, but do you have a recommended setup of all hardware i schould get, and software, to get Flightgear up and running more beautyfull? Im also considdering of using steam as a gameshop. Im such a noob, that i would prefer exsact list of what hardware i schould use. Btw i would like to build my own pc, because im not a fan of thoese gamercomputers with all the colourrd light insight.
No idea about Flightgear but to get super niche X-Plane works in VR on Linux, including with flight simulator joysticks.
I can’t help you with your specific setup but my point is that gaming on Linux works very well unless you need kernel level anti cheat which at this point is pretty much only a portion of competitive gaming.
I don’t see anything on https://www.protondb.com/search?q=Flightgear though so not a good sign.
PS: been player for years on Linux, from AAA e.g. Baldur’s Gate 3 to Elden Ring to VR games e.g Half-life: Alyx to indie games in VR and flat, not once did I have nor want to go back to Windows.
