I finally got a graphics card from this decade, and I kept trying to play it the other day but it kept giving me anticheat errors before I even got into the game.
Never played it before. Ended up playing slipgate and an athletic young lady let me play cyberpunk a bit.
Nope - anything made by Epic, EA, Ubisoft, Riot or Rockstar is blocked from working on Linux, and the list is actually growing with For Honor being blocked soon
I’ve personally ditched most gaming as a result, same as I mostly stopped following media after DRM became a thing a decade or so ago. I wish more people did the same, because interacting with people while being intentionally unaware of popular culture is difficult
What do you think, I was already peeved with DVD DRM, but at least it could be bypassed. With streaming services, where the file resides in a server instead of in a physical medium at home, it’s much harder to fix that
Hey maybe I’ll actually play some of those free games Ive been collecting for years
If that’s all you use the EGS for, you can just use the Heroic games launcher. heroicgameslauncher.com/
This just quadruple quadrupled my game library, thanks!
Cool thanks, I’ll give it a try
Wait does apex legends work in Linux?

I play Ubisoft games on Bazzite, an atomic distro. Works great, no issues at all.
Ooh, well apologies to all those companies but I guess I won’t be playing any of their games.
I don’t think there’s anything that a game could do that would convince me to install windows for it.

DRM has existed since the DVD era. I think there were even several attempts with VHS before that.

Use GoG. DRM free games. You can download the installer and distribute it for backups. Do anything you like.
If it’s on SteamOS (Deck, Machine or DIY), check out the Unifideck plugin for Decky Loader.

Thanks but I’ve only got epic for the free games, and then steam for my real games. And heroic launcher is working great!
Same here. The advantage of Unifideck is that it integrates with Steam so you don’t need to hop between launchers.
