Quoting: Geppeto35Then I create a character, then I try to interact with one of the object on the first desk from the very start (in the room of the character) ... got back to the Desktop directly.
Tried on my dual boot on windows, same experience on the same object... Seriously? Supposed to be a AAA game or something like that, but no credit in this company to do stuff seriously?

This is why many people like to call them Bugthesda for a reason :wink:

Good thing single player games are here to stay since it seems like more and more game companies will resort to these tactics to stop cheaters and bots. It sucks for those that love to play multiplayer games on Steam Deck/Linux but get blocked by anticheat software, even if they're not the ones doing the cheating :angry:

So if blockchain web3 stuff is your jam, then you might be interested in this I guess? Not one for me honestly.

I'm going to agree with you there, Liam. I don't like the design of the device and blockchain is the last thing I want when it comes to handheld gaming :sick:

Quoting: kuhpunktJust a random question. How do you guys pronounce TR1X when you read/say it? Tee Are One Axe? Tricks?

I would pronounce it as Trix (Tricks), like the name of the cereal here in the US. However, I don't know how anyone else would pronounce it.

Ohhhh i wasn't aware! So then very easy install of Steam Deck too :smile:

It's been available on Steam Deck for awhile now as a Flatpak through the Discover Store in Desktop Mode and it works quite well :smile:

Quoting: Purple Library GuyOn Mac, I suspect open source software is quite hard to run.

In general, it's a lot easier than Windows because it has a lot of the same libraries as Linux due to its *BSD heritage.

I was thinking more along the lines of just a bit of a pain to install because of Apple walled garden stuff, not so much not working or anything.

Oh, well in that case, not really! Installing open source software (or any kind of software, really) is pretty easy on macOS. Even installing homebrew is possible with a click (and a drag, and an OK prompt, and a right-click to Open it) or a one-line command. Same deal with, say, Krita. Just download the .DMG and go through a wizard. Most people don't use the App Store because it sucks for getting software anyway.

I actually think macOS is a pretty decent OS (with major caveats) and isn't much more locked down than Windows. In some ways, I think it's less limiting. It's all of Apple's other devices where that reputation is rightly deserved.

Don't forget that you can also use Macports if you want to install open source software and while it's not as simple as homebrew, it's not a bad tool to use if you set it up.

Quoting: theHoneyBadgerI heard a rumor today that Apex Legends will be getting this new AC within the next month or two, after the whole hacking debacle during the big competition they had recently. EAC has washed their hands of EA at this point, so the writing is basically on the wall.

If they do, then you can be sure that Battlefield 1 and 4 will eventually get it because there's no way they wouldn't add it for just Battlefield V and 2042 only. I guess no one should be surprised anymore when it comes to companies like EA using these crappy anticheats that breaks our enjoyment of their games on Steam Deck/Linux.

Yeah, you can't launch the game at all. It gives you a "Wine is not supported!" error.

Damn, that's very inconsiderate of them.

I had a feeling that was going to happen (which why I quickly finished the game before April 3rd) since this is the same approach as other kernel anticheats, where single player story modes are blocked from Steam Deck/Linux despite certain customers not planning to cheat or playing multiplayer online mode. If only the single player story mode didn't get hindered by an anticheat and should only be applied to those that go online only but these companies would rather lazily apply the all or nothing approach.

At this point, if you still want to play the game, you'll either have to install Windows or use a cloud service like Geforce Now whenever they update it on their end since it's offline at the moment.
