Right, MTX is one reason, but it's somewhat hard to play any modern
games on an older linux laptop :P but if i do get the chance i may try
some?

That is definitely a more insoluable issue, and one reason I generally
avoid laptops for gaming. But then I'm lucky enough that I'm currently
in a place where I can afford more than one computer, and I know not
everyone is there yet.

Still, I'm often surprised at how capable modern laptops often are.
While they rarely can play games on highest-detail settings, probably
won't reach the blessed realms of 60fps, and may struggle with the
most modern titles, it's amazing at how well they can perform with
games even a few years old. A colleague was playing "Sons of the
Forest" on a stock two-year-old HP laptop and it was impressive it
could manage that. Heck, I've played my silly truck-sim game on my
ten-year old laptop and -even if I did have to crank down the detail
levels and it sometimes chugs- its still a fun experience. Given how
(comparatively) underpowered these machines' GPUs are, its amazing
what they can manage.

But I'm still sticking with my desktop for real gaming. Just being
able to upgrade it over the years makes it worth the investment;
there's nothing like slamming in a new GPU and watching games that it
used to struggle with suddenly fly like an eagle (or am I mixing
metaphors?)

TL;DR: I don't have a summary here. I'm just rambling :-)
