    The entitlement in this whole thread is insane. Is that how linux gamers are? Not to mention that modern gaming require developers to use third-party anti-cheat solution on which they have little control. You’d think the Linux crowd would understand that it makes more sense to please the 98% of players up until anti-cheats get better Linux support.

      The funny thing is moat of these anti cheats have built in ways to enable Linux, such as easy anticheat, but Deva stubbornly wont toggle the option to enable.

      Apex runs just fine WITH its anticheat.

      Blizzards anticheat also works out of the box.

        I believe commonly used engines like UE and Unity also have options to build a game for linux as well.

        Even if you’re not using an engine that supports building for linux, nor want to maintain a separate linux codebase. You can just build for windows while targeting proton compatibility.

      Ironically the two biggest ACs in use, EAC and battleye are both linux compatible and have been for around 2-3 years at this point.
