No thanks. I come to discussion forums for discussion and legitimate news, not to spend my time slogging through some influencer’s video to bolster their view count.
When they don’t respect my time enough to at least outline their key points in text, and there’s no obvious reason why the content must be video, I find that it’s vanishingly unlikely that they have anything interesting to say.
Dunno, seems pretty good to me.
It’s really just games with kernel level anticheat that are a problem.
I’ve been daily driving Linux for a few years. I’ve had exactly one (1) game that wouldn’t run because of anti-cheat, and dozens that run great. And the Steam deck gaining popularity is only making things better and easier.
Been gaming on Linux for over a decade, definitely some stuff is a bit h but it’s surprising how much works flawlessly. Bought a steam deck a month ago and I’m very impressed with the polish and compatibility. I’ll be happy to see it keep selling. It’s a nice piece of hardware.
The current state of gaming is that many games perform better on linux than on windows. What planet is this guy on?
I got games that run better on proton than windows
I’m at work so I can’t really watch a video about this…but I don’t think I’ve had a problem running any recent game at all. The only one that comes to mind was the beta for monster hunter wilds, and I think that was sort of it’s own thing because the game was a mess for windows users too.
Also the new Derail Valley update is awesome and they’re working with valve to make it work even better on the steam deck.
More and more games are compatible every week, so um… no?
Not being able to play the world’s most popular games, means most gamers aren’t ready for Linux yet.
- FC25
- GTA V
- LOL
- Fortnite
And more.
I hate those games, but my kids want to play FC25, and for that… I still have a dreaded Windows PC.
What is FC25?
I play GTA V on my steam deck
Online?
No, I haven’t tried, but looked it up and see it doesn’t work.
That’s the point. Online play on linux is limited.
It plays everything I need it to.
Kernel level anticheat is garbage that shouldn’t be on anyone’s system anyway.
Y’all realize that you are doing exactly what these creators want, right?
They create stupid/outlandish shit, because they know people, like everyone posting here, will spread the video to the 4 corners in indignant outrage, and give the creator more spread and exposure than they would have ever gotten on youtube alone due to algorithm.
And if you don’t do that, you’ll make tons of comments on the video/youtube channel, massively spiking their engagement and skewing the algorithm in their favor
I have problems getting really old games to run. Especially Windows 95/98 games. I don’t care much for online slop. Most games I want to play work.
“Oh, look! One(1) game has been busted by the devs themselves and because of that, Linux gaming is dead as ever!”
lmao what
It works perfectly for me, but I don’t play online games. I hope they can get those games running in Linux so those folks can switch over.
Indie games and single player games and multiplayer games with devs enabling support still supported.
