It does affect Intel actually, just not as badly. It doesn't affect AMD because they treat mappings differently.

They can't fix that until Vulkan does (also as per nvidia forum big thread about it).

Isn't the whole point of WinBoat that you don't have to interact with the Windows DE to use the apps? That's a pretty big difference from just using a VM.

Anti-cheat will still be one of the biggest problems for the new Steam Machine

It's funny how they admit that KLACs don't solve the cheating problem any more than other system, but have just dug themselves in so far that they don't see any problem with that, just imposing ever more restrictive requirements like Secure Boot and TPM. These don't even deal with cheating methods outside the OS like display assist tools.
I foresee a backlash in the not-too-distant future where people see how much cheating is still going on, especially given how much developers have touted KLACs as the be-all-end-all of anti-cheat.

Isn't that like running two anti-virus services? They're more likely to get in each others' way than detect anything malicious.

Community made wrappers have been around for a while. The ThirteenAG fixes are released under an MIT license so I'm guessing they just used that.

Battlefield 6 releases today and it will not be playable on any Linux / SteamOS system

The only way I see this trend reversing is if people get sick of the persistence of cheaters and it becomes a toxic concept to associate with like Denuvo. Either that or very public exploits of vulnerabilities.

@pikolo That would also mean the government has a neat little list of everyone who goes on any website with regulated content, no need for a court order when it's just handed to you.
