This is really going to validate the anti-Steamdeck/anti-Linux gamers. It shouldn't.

"You can't play shitty MMO Battle Royale games if you're on a Linux PC!"

Fucking good. That's a feature.

It's also keeping people from even considering linux for gaming so I don't share your sentiment. Like it or not, these games are insanely popular. My gaming buddies won't even think of switching to linux until 100% of the games they play are working on it, and that include "shitty MMO Battle Royale" I'm sorry to say.

You need an internet break.

Why is it a good thing that people can't enjoy the games they like on Linux?

Counter opinion:Atleast they will mostly play indie games, they are soo much better then these AAA games.

They're brainwashed chuds, it doesn't really matter what they think.
