It's really just games with kernel level anticheat that are a problem.

Dunno, seems pretty good to me.
- Video-only link.
- No transcript, synopsis, or even point of view in the post.
- Provocative click-bait title.
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.
Yeah I thought the whole point of it being off youtube and on a non-income based platform meant they didn't have to use such scummy tactics like clickbait
There's a transcript in the description and this is on tilvids, a FOSS fediverse platform which does not financially benefit the uploader
An off-site transcript is no substitute for posting something of value in this forum. Lack of direct financial benefit makes no difference to any of the points I raised.
What? I've never seen it better. I just played Veilguard all the way through without any issues on Linux
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.
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.
It plays everything I need it to.
Kernel level anticheat is garbage that shouldn't be on anyone's system anyway.
