A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Why not both? That's the path I chose!

I'm scared to mod because I'm on Linux and playing LE, so I don't know if the mods would even work

Its not the easiest process, but me le modding has been figured out. Here's a guide made for steam deck but the steps should apply to most distros. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2924374014

Oh I didn't mod. She took off her mask. That's like, the sexiest thing! Good enough for me!

I'm in the same boat, want FemShep, always romance Tali. The ME2 LE romance mod is pretty painless. Unfortunately, last I checked, the modder never finished the ME3 LE mod. There's a way to force it in ME3 by hacking the save file and it'll still get you there, but it won't be as seamless.

I am going through LE on Linux right now with my wife. I installed the ME3Tweaks Mod Manager using WINE and then installed mods through it designating my LE1, LE2, and LE3 directories in the Steam installation.

I have only installed the ME2 QoL mod of 1 probe getting all resources for a planet (after my wife experienced the tedium of probing planets for resources) so we could get back to playing. That mod has worked flawlessly so I would assume mods being installed through that Mod Manager are potentially just as stable.
