You can use gamescope with anything, it's a micro compositor. You can add it to the launch parameters in steam, lutris has an option to start games with gamescope, or you can simply open the game with gamescope and wine from the terminal.
Gamescope is great to use even on desktops, it runs the games in its own little shell which is particularly good for compatibility with old games where you can change stuff like resolution, fullscreen, keyboard layout... without impacting your distro.
The layout is just gnome, pretty sure you can change the DE if you want to, and yeah it does look like android which isn't necessarily a bad thing considering desktop usage is getting replaced by mobile.
Steam and the other loaders (lutris, bottles...) take care of all the compatibility stuff just fine; the tweaks are actually the ones that can be bothersome to get, not that the performance difference matters much anyways...
These limited things are always just time based exclusives, publishers aren't gonna leave money on the table.
Premium currencies are just very anti-consumer, I'm sure you know most of the arguments against it so I won't reiterate them.
GGG are great developers, but their sales department is as predatory as every other game, FOMO sales, lootboxes, premium currencies, supporter packs... Not being p2w (the standard on pc btw) is really the only good thing you can say about their current monetization.
There's plenty to explore for sure, and the 3 acts will give most people a run for their money, but the game is incomplete, literally missing half the campaign. The missing weapons and skill gems means you actually don't have many options that aren't railroaded, there's also going to be a lot of balance fixes and probably item drop buffs; EA is never the best time to start a game.
Given you don't pay extra for EA and premium stuff like stash space you buy goes to both PoE1 and 2, you get quite a bit for your early access ticket.
Most new players buying into EA are not going to stick around. Also fuck premium currencies, this shit is manipulative as hell, not to mention it makes refunds needlessly complicated.
Well that's how poe2 is usually described, i personally have never played any of the souls game so i can't attest to the similarity. Poe2 is a lot more boss centric.
The dodge roll has its niche: avoid boss mechanics. You can spam it so it doesn't provide any movement advantage, i think it gives iframes on targeted attacks, but you can still get hit by AOEs. However, because you can't attack while rolling you want to avoid doing it unless you really need to.
They slowed down the game tremendously and added dodge roll.
For anyone that's not familiar with the game, it's a slow top-down arpg with a souls like gameplay. The game is challenging but the progression can currently be tedious and unrewarding, the EA is also missing a lot of content that isn't ready yet; I recommend waiting for the full release if you want to give it a shot.
