Mhm wait a moment, Final Fantasy 14 is not free, its subscription based.

Its again one of those times when I lost 100% on Steam. I already own the game, so cannot make savings by getting it free, therefore I lost the money that I would have saved. If this keeps happening I am broke very soon.

Just a clarification in case someone sees this comment after the time expired: The game is free to keep if you get it before 10th July. It’s just a typo in this postings title.

RIP for those who was still playing this. I tried the game a few years back on Game Pass (or was it a different service?) where I could try it without paying extra. Played 1 or 2 hours or so. It was an okay experience for a disaster game, but got bored quickly. The controls are actually really good and is the reason why this game can be played at all.

I’d rather fix the problems incase it’s a weird config I have going.

You have the perfect Linux user mindset. I am not saying this as an offense, rather a compliment. :-) I am also someone who investigates and searches the reason and solution of problems.

Recently I had an issue for months, before its stable now (AMD on Linux, but with a specific game Marvel Rivals). The issue was so bad that I got multiple crashes per game session or match even. And either my method or the updates to the game, to the Linux core and drivers fixed it, or a combination of it. What I want to say is, maybe its an issue with the software or as you say, a configuration issue. So trying and finding a workaround might be worth it. Especially if you are happy with Nividia otherwise.

It’s depressing how dominant Nvidia.

Not only Capcom.

It’s not GUI, but I want to mention another alternative, as people mention commandline applications here too: kdotool, works under KDE Wayland without with normal user rights (no root). They still work on a few features, but it can do lot of windowing stuff already. A good addition to ydotool.
