I kinda just remember the images of the game. I don't really have a problem recognizing games I've already played from the images, I do however, have problems remember the names of some games if they don't make a big impression on me.
It depends really. If the writing is boring, sure, but I've discovered that skipping the story, the interactions between characters, the important little things, it really detracts from the whole point of it.
Fedora was a bad choice for me because I had never really used a Linux machine before, and after spending the better half of a day trying to install drivers for my graphics card, the drivers I did end up installing didn't work.
Mint just has a driver manager tool so I don't have to fumble...
i kinda dislike Koikatsu games, mostly because i've actually used the engine and seen most of the default animations and stuff.
but i like pretty much anything that isn't AI generated. daily lives of my countryside probably has my favorite art.
to be honest, i've been heavily relying on google's ai search feature to learn about mint and fix the problems i run in to. it has genuinely been a boon. i imagine many other people are having similar experiences with different distros too.
it definitely has its down sides and gets stuff wrong...
