I played through MGS4 recently on Arch Linux. Lots of community patches, and tinkering with settings. But it was mostly playable. Textures on any kind of screen in-game (like when a character is video chatting you), some of the flashback sequences, and a few random times the NV mode in south America went completely out of whack. But it was enough to look past the issues and enjoy the story and gameplay after playing MGS1-3
RPCS3 is running fairly well in my experience. It can be a bit hit or miss on what games work, but a lot of the most popular games run fine. There’s even upscaling to 4K and getting games to run a 60 FPS that originally only did 30.
Poke around on here and see if what you’re looking for is playable. You’ll even find workarounds and optimizations for specific games (MGS4 is a big one for this)
FWIW, I’m still using a pixel 3A and don’t have plans to change anytime soon. They really do last for a long time.
Things like (old) fast charging and not having to charge it every day are what still blow my mind and feel like modern innovations to me. It’s still pretty responsive and fast enough for what I use it for. Sometimes my texts take a little to load anymore but I don’t really mind.
YMMV depending on what you want out of a phone I guess. I try not to look at my phone unless I have to for a text or call or email abymore. But I’ve been on this train since the Nexus 6P. If you want a solid, stable phone that lasts a long time and very little fluff or bloat, go pixel. The flexibility for custom ROMs and rooting and things is unmatched as well. I’ll continue to use this thing until I drop it down the street one day or it gets aggravating to use somehow
Sick lol.
Russians gotta have their counter strike 😏
