Tarkov is in a different much more complex situation. It uses some Battleye addons that are custom made for the game that Battleye will not port to work on Linux.

If it was an issue on the user's end then it's possible 3rd parties could fix it (as Wine/Proton has for every game not designed for GNU+Linux). BattleState Games have decided they don't want to host servers without BattlEye for us to play on and that we're not entitled to host our own servers.

I did consider installing Windows on a machine just for Tarkov but install and using modern Windows looks like hell. I'd rather install Windows XP than Windows .
