Easy Anti-Cheat not as simple as expected for Proton and Steam Deck

Quoting: SakuretsuThe thing I really wanna know is:

Was Valve aware of that before they made the claim of "just a few clicks"?
EAC was bought by Epic (not Valve) a few weeks before they announced EGS (and imho when they did, and Tim explained his "gaming vision", it became clear why they bought it. So the actual surprise was that they were supporting proton just because it would benefit gamers, not that they use it as a troyan horse to impose their infrastruture in the industry).
Yeah, I know EAC belongs to Epic.

What I was implying is that Valve, the one pushing Linux Gaming since God knows when, and also the one who have approached Epic in regards to enabling EAC for Proton should have more information in regards to this matter since (I expect?) they have been in touch with Epic for at least some time to even negotiate about enabling Proton compatibility.

Even if Valve didn't make the claim themselves if they already knew about the information we have now and didn't make it clear to the public I still see it as a bad thing.

If so then they made a really anti-consumer move. Lying and misleading us with Epic's help.

If like us Valve didn't know about that then I have one more reason to despise Epic, because IMO that looks like blatant sabotage since Epic already knew "nobody" uses that version of their Anticheat.

If we have the right to choose whatever platform we want to use they also should have the right to choose the platforms they want to support.

Of course I'm going to criticize the developers if they choose to not support Linux for some reason, but it's their right to do so.

It's really good.
Curious, why Proton for this title?
My personal experience with native ports wasn't that good in the past, but actually my main reason is just "research".

I'm just testing different things and seeing what happens.

Edit:

I also installed the native version of this game after testing Proton and it also runs nicely.

Again, I'm trying to have a picture of the current state of Proton's compatibility with Windows games so I can have more options.

I also tried Transistor and it runs beatifully.
