@dafyre which emulator are you using?
PCSX2 (https://pcsx2.net/).
Edit: DQ 8 plays better with graphics acceleration set to OpenGL -- otherwise some cutscenes and flashbacks don't play right.
Does that run on Linux? Worth testing out
I love so many PS2 games.Looks like it: https://pcsx2.net/download/releases/linux/category/3-linux.html
Nice
Let me know how it works out.

Assuming you have RPMFusion repos added (which you need for video playback in general), it is in the repo
dnf install pcsx2

Luciana is playing Raft.
How does she like it? It's one of the ones I've considered picking up but seems like a lot of necessary time investment.

So far both girls are enjoying it. More like Minecraft than I would have guessed.

Yeah, it's one of those survival oriented games.

Playing Ankh with the kids.

Technical glitches, we switched to Nancy Drew and the Crystal Skull instead.
-
Completed that game. Now we are starting Nancy Drew: The Phantom of Venice.
-
Outlast DLC Whistle blower. Finished, couldn't sleep.
-
Kids are playing Slime Rancher. That game amazes me at how well it manages to capture their attention even after hundreds of hours of gameplay.

Back to this tonight.

Battlefield V is definitely better after upgrading to a 1070ti. I put my older R290x into mining.
-
Kids trying to play the first Sherlock Holmes game last night, but it does not seem to work on the laptop. It's a 2002 game and seems to have display and input problems. Going to attempt troubleshooting that one at some point.
-
The kids played Yuka-laylee last night for a while. There is a four player option in it.
-
They also played four player Aeria

Distraint is currently free on GOG. Get it now!!

EA turns in bummer fiscal report: “We’re disappointed in our underperformance”
New games announced; after-hours EA stock trading suggests a severe drop.
EA's latest quarterly fiscal report included a stark admission: Battlefield V's sales fell way below expectations. This, combined with a severe drop in mobile-gaming revenue, led EA's executives to admit that they were "disappointed in our underperfomance" in fiscal Q3 2019.
BFV's sales to date, according to EA COO and CFO Blake Jorgensen, have reached 7.3 million copies across all platforms worldwide, which the company says is "one million less" than it had indicated in previous Q3 2019 guidance. Jorgensen didn't mince words: he blamed the drop in the series' uptake on the developers' focus on a single-player campaign, as opposed to having a promised battle royale mode ready for fans in time for the game's launch.
