After using Windows for 30+ years now (since Windows 1), this is one of the straws finally pushing me into Linux.
I'm running 10, but without a TPM, can't go to 11. So sad. Not.
Honestly 7 was the last decent OS they made. In my opinion the good OS's were NT4 (game changer), 2000, XP, 7. They can keep the rest.
If I was not using my PC for gaming also, I would probably say fuck them and be on Linux too. But gaming on Linux is cancer.
Not so much anymore, it’s apparently improved significantly and getting better all the time. Check out linux_gaming. A lot of avid proponents there given the shitshow M$FT has made of Windows.
At the same time, Baldurs Gate 3 is the most played game (in hours) on the steam deck for the past 2 months. A game that had to be delayed on Xbox because the series S couldn't handle it.
If you see a large difference in performance Windows/Linux then dinner m something is not right. Might be Nvidia card with the open source drivers?
I've got over 900 hours clocked in Apex Legends, and about 100 in Valheim. I've been playing multiple games from the past 5 years without any issues.
no need to, Lutris works just as well for managing your non-Steam library.
Hmm what's your specs?
It seems your igpu is being used instead of the dGPU
