Personally, I'd go with a desktop for upgrade potential maybe a mini tower if you move about, but if a laptop is a must, the second one is a solid choice for future proofing, albeit you will struggle with that small amount of storage, you'd need an external storage device eventually.
Also be aware that laptop typically struggle with cooling issues when mixed with gaming.
I suggest getting a cooling pad.

Worth mentioning that you can install two 2TB SSDs into a gaming laptop quite easily, no need to worry about external storage! (source: I did it with a Lenovo Legion 5 haha)
Also just worth a quick mention that you won't need anything too fancy or expensive cooling pad wise - I got a cheap little stand off Amazon that lifts the laptop slightly, and it runs AAA games on Very High / Ultra just fine. You won't have any issues with 3D games from f95, such as Too Much Light - as long as the specs of the laptop itself are up to par, of course.
Gaming laptops are genuinely a pretty great option these days. Just be ready to pay slightly more for the equivalent laptop than you would for a tower, or settle for slightly lower performance (a laptop RTX 3070 isn't quite as powerful as a desktop RTX 3070). And also remember to only play games when it's on a stand, don't ever have the laptop sat on a blanket/duvet

Oh that's good to know, I haven't used a gaming laptop in 10+ years, most of them started failing after a year or two from degradation of heat, with constant BSOD and GPU crashes.
Including once where the company went bankrupt during the time it was sent for repairs, I never got that laptop back.
But, glad to hear upgrading storage is easier without breaking warranty, used to be a hassle.
I agree, you don't have to spend much on a cooling pad, there are many cheap but good options, even back then.
I can't imagine how it is now, I personally went with one with a fan, but you don't need one, it being slightly lifted does wonders.
If heat is no longer an issue as you say, then a gaming laptop is a great option, especially if you move about a lot, I figured if you want to have the upgrade potential, a mini-tower can do wonders, only real issue is the monitor, unless you got one at each location or contempt with using a TV monitor.Gaming laptops are genuinely a pretty great option these days.

Indeed, there is a cost and performance difference on the parts of a laptop in constrast to a desktop the M variants tend to be much more compact and a bit weaker than it's non M variant, but you pay for the convenience of mobility.
I know some that would setup an external GPU for their laptop.
100%, never cover the underside, especially the exhausts that are typically on the sides or back, that's a recipe for disaster, the amount of people I know that seem to ignore this fact is astonishing.
I would like to add, if you live in a warm country, that's another factor you need to be aware of, it drastically affected the performance on my laptop back in the day.
very slowly, but yes.
this is a side hobby. shine still has to eat...

The one with Adriano was removed from this build (hopefully just for a rework, it would be a shame to throw such great work away) and the one with the dog owner doesn't exist yet, hopefully coming in the next build.
The dog does have one, you just have to make the right choice
i have problem when enter the gallery, i've unlocked 10 screens but for some reason it lost everything. Is this a bug or something, can anyone resend me the link for full unlocked
do you have more than one save?
there's a bug where it can see the unlock status of a different save than the one you're actually on
just checked to make sure I wasn't crazy (I meeeaaan...I AM, but not for this)
I have 8 saves.
saving manually is easy. hit esc for the menu, then hit save/load (which is near the bottom of the screen)
i can save now but got another problem. when i replay the gallery, there're some screens appear like dog or the man in the cabin, but when i choose it, the screen gonna stuck at the loading screen

Yuna:Reborn and Bioasshard are similar 3d monster shooters that I like. There are some more if you use the tags to search.
