sucks cock for gaming

No

yes

it's a hassle

you may be lucky and a game may work

or not, unless you can be bothered to make it work

What games would you like to that arent supported well enough? Proton has made everything so easy.

What you're lacking from Steam you get with Lutris

For example WoT has ugly graphics glitches

I rarely touch windows, but lets not pretend linux is decent for gaming

it's bearable if one is willing to put in the effort

I respectfully disagree m'sir. Theres a metric shit ton of Linux games or Proton games in Steam.

Just recently sound broke in the _native_ WarThunder client for linux

and I had to go digging into the documentation of the (proprietary) sound library the game is using to make it work

So what changed? The game or your OS?

if this happened on windows, the bug would be fixed in a matter of hours

Wine staging / Dxvk.

./setup_dxvk.sh install

>>So hard.

the game updated; that caused the sound bug

Thanks for being honest, but that literally has nothing to do with anything except the game company exclusively

It has to do with the fact that there's not enough players on linux for the to care much

*for them

Many games don't even have native clients, WT at least cares enough to have one

Thing is...
The only reason overwatch worked on linux, was from a mass amount of bans, and those bans were reversed after the "Company" noticed it was bans from wine.
So they tweaked their anti-cheat, and boom.
Worked flawlessly.

Another example, PES just stopped working after wine update

I could try and make it work again, but that's just hassle

It's basically companies being assholes cucking linux.
And then make the poor piss excuse that "There's more hackers on linux."
No mate, almost all hacking on games is done on windows.
It'll be more safer on linux, than windows.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/770240/PRO_EVOLUTION_SOCCER_2019/ is this the PES ?

They are not assholes. The just make sensible business decitions

They put in effort proportional to the number of potential customers

Yes youre right

They are assholes, hell...
Almost all games works on PS4, and that runs Orbis OS, which is linux.
They have no excuses.

And linux userbase just isn't big enough

PS4 is based on some bsd, I'm pretty sure

It is, but the irony is strong in the statement.

There a lot more to an OS than a kernel

But it just goes to show how even tho it's potentially easier to port, they don't because nobody gives a fuck about BSDs

Well, showing how badly ported rdr2 was on PC, even struggling on 2080ti's.
I can give them a benefit of the doubt.

besides consoles are great for revenue, because it's all locked in

They could have called this DOOD but they were too afraid

So an indie dev found a way to promise he won't go epic exclusive, and that was to make the game h since Epic's store policies will block it.
Dunno if anyone here backed Subverse but this one looks to be a lot more heavy on the game side of things if anyone's interested.
Kickstarter page (what I'm linking to) is technically sfw, but I'm killing the embed for it because of the subject matter. For another game by the same dev, you can check out Singularity: Tactics Arena, which is coming out of early access real soon (supposedly) and I've linked to the steam page for.
