Depends on your definition of “old”, I guess. 6.8 is considered “current”, 6.14 and 6.17 are available on the list. So far, hardware support on 6.8 has covered everything I’ve thrown at it.

Me too, just got the lego kit and thinking about adding LEDs and…oh wait. RDR2, not R2D2.


Toss up between Warhammer Fantasy RP and Pendragon. WFRP has a reputation for grimdarkness and brutality (fair). Pendragon has a lovely system that plays fast and really encourages actual roleplaying in Arthurian Britain.
And the most brutal thing I’ve ever seen happen in a RPG was in Pendragon. The standard start includes some training exercises with your squire characters, including a joust with practice lances (break easily, no points or metal heads). You get to this within 10 minutes of starting, after 30-60 minutes of character creation.
One of the players suffered a critical hit to the face with a “safety lance” and was killed instantly. Had to roll up a new character, but was laughing the entire time.


I haven’t been, but am looking at it after your post.


I made the switch in January, and it’s been great. The only game I’ve had trouble with is a fully-kitted Skyrim with a bajillion external apps/runtimes, but I’ve managed to get even that working fine. Every other game is just Install/Play from Steam with no tweaks.


I did that just before the tariffs were announced. Kept the old PC (Win 10) but haven’t turned it on since except to copy some files. Games, .NET development, everything I need working just fine. Can’t see any reason to ever go back.


15% are dumb or misunderstood the question at this point.
I’m running 6.8 kernel on current Mint for a new PC I built last year. I remember that being a big deal that they were using more recent kernels to improve hardware support. So far it’s supported everything I’ve thrown at it without any effort on my part.
