Finished this gem for the first time a while ago. Honestly if there was ever a timeless game this one is it.

I went to botw subreddits once when I lost my save file hoping someone had it around where I lost it but no one did. So since I was replaying anyways I started making a savefile dump for lost souls like mine ...

Here you go!

Works with cemu and requires DLC.

Okay I know this sounds like click bait but trust me switching over to linux requires you to first master the open source software that you will be replacing your windows/mac counterparts with. Doing it in an unfamiliar OS with no fallback to rely on is tough, frustrating and will turn you off of trying linux. DISCLAIMER: I know that some people cannot switch to linux because open source / Linux software is not good enough yet. But I urge you to keep track of them and when so you can know when they are good enough.

The Solution

So I suggest you keep using windows, switch all your apps to open or closed source software that is available on linux. Learn them, use them and if you are in a pinch and need to use your windows only software it will still be there. Once you are at a point where you never use the windows only software you can then think of switching over to linux.

The Alternatives

So to help you out I'll list my favorites for each use case.

MS Office -> Only Office

1. Not for folks who use obscure macros and are deep into MS Office
2. Has Collaboration and integration with almost all popular cloud services..
3. Has a MS Office like UI and the best compatibility with MS Office.

Adobe Premiere -> Da Vinci Resolve

1. It is closed source but available on linux
2. Great UI, competitive features and a free version

Outlook -> Thunderbird

1. Recently went through massive updates and now has a modern design.
2. Templates, multi account management, content based filters, html signatures, it is all there.

Epic Games, GOG, PRIME -> Heroic

1. Easy to use, 1 click install, no hassel
2. Beautiful UI
3. Automatically imports all the games you have bought

PDF Editor -> LibreOffice Draw

1. Suprisingly good for text manipulation, moving around images and alot more.
2. There might be slight incompatibilities (I haven't noticed anything huge)
3. But hey, it's free

How do I pick a distro there are so many! NO

So finally after switching all the apps you think you are ready? Do not fall into the rabbit hole of changing your entire OS every two days, you will be in a toxic relationship with it.

I hate updates and my hardware is not that new

1. Mint - UI looks a bit dated but it is rock solid
2. Ubuntu - Yes, I know snaps are bad, but you can just ignore them

I have new hardware but I want sane updates

1. Fedora
2. Open Suse Tumbleweed

I live on the bleeding edge baby, both hardware and software

1. Arch ... btw

Anyways what is more important is the DE than the distro for a beginner, trust me. Gnome, KDE, Cinnamon, etc. you can try them all in a VM and see which one you like.

SO TLDR: Don't switch to linux! Switch to linux apps.
