You can be sure that MS finds a way to either bust it or make it anticompetitive.

Sometimes kernel level anti-cheat is good for the consumer, actually.

I was about to relapse and install league of legends, but then vanguard for league was announced, which immediately cured me <3

Yeah if league starts working on linux again then I’ll probably relapse as well :/

I have saved a lot of money by scrolling down and seeing “Denuvo.”

The anti-tampering solution sounds like some trusted computing bullshit like on mobile where banking apps will refuse to run if your device has a custom rom or non-locked boot loader. This would be how anti-cheat software could continue to lock out linux.

I bet it is similar to android “mimimi this is sideloaded version, I will not start that, download original version from play (bzw. MS store) store plz” feature

Effects that anti cheat software games only can be sold via MS store, great! /s

My solution to games not supporting Steam Deck/Linux is to simply not buy/play it. It’s not much but it’s honest work!

Same. There are anyway much more games than one can find time to play them.

This^ The road to Linux gaming has already been paved. It’s just missing one or two exits.
