Hi everyone! So I just switched to Linux and I am a little unsure of what to play on my laptop.

It’s a presumably decent laptop, 16gb of ram and Iris Xe, but I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim.

I’m looking into things like emulation, finally tackling my Itch.io backlog, and bringing out old classics.

I like RPGs and text-based choose your own adventure games, so if you have any recommendations I’d appreciate it!

    Never actually heard of those software until now. I looked it up and found out something about TLP having default settings—does this mean once I install it, I don’t have to touch it again? Or do I have to do something like go into a terminal and install default settings after I install it?

    I installed it, I just don’t know what the next step is.

      Pretty much! The Arch Wiki has some decent documentation on it (despite the name, aside from package names, it’s pretty much distro agnostic these days)

      All you need to do is ensure that the service is enabled. In terminal: sudo systemctl enable --now tlp.service
