From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Fighting games would like to have a word

[–] INeedMana@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why? What's up with fighting games?

[–] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The lifeblood of fighting games is the online community. If you wait too long, everyone online is either way better than you or has moved on to the next fighting game.

Oh. That sucks. "Previous" fighting games don't have people that stayed?

When I was finally playing Dark Souls 2, I was surprised that finding someone to play with was not hard. Fighting games scene might be different, though

The people who stay have often been there for years and you can't really fight them because they're so good.
