There has been for some time the option to play on “safer seas” where its basically a private server for your party, but you get lesser rewards.

For a single-player game…

I started playing a year ago (also on Linux), I never felt a lack of players to do anything, be it recent or older content. As for performance, from what I can compare with my friends, its runs at about 90% of windows. It’s free to play the base content, give it a try!

Not really, AMD’s FSR upscaling can increase visual quality/fidelity while using less power than rendering at full resolution. This can be easily seen in Steam Deck’s battery life improvement when enabling it. Scaling this to millions of devices can indeed reduce energy usage.

When you read about “AI power consumption”, its mostly about training the models, not as much the usage after it’s trained.
