I've never been a fan of needing specialized drivers for common peripherals.

This is the one problem I have with Proton, that other companies can break it, and it falls on Valve to fix it. I have trouble believing this will be sustainable over the long-term.

Quoting: g000hAll the more reason to use an email alias or aliasing service such as anonaddy. Companies wanting to grab your real email so they can spam you junk repeatedly into the future (not to mention collecting and then sharing out your details with their partners).

Data is the new oil.

As the saying goes, "If something is free, then you are the product."

It's usually best to walk away from a fight you have no chance of winning.

Quoting: StalePopcornOoh, I'd love to uninstall the Battle.net client to play Diablo IV

I'm hoping for this, too. While Diablo IV runs great with Proton, the Battle.net launcher can be a little flaky.

Quoting: Mountain ManYou would think companies would have learned by now that trying to score points with this "social awareness" and "inclusivity" BS always backfires.

Finally, finally a delusional "go woke go broke" individual to pretend that WOKE Street Fighter 6, WOKE Guilty Gear Strive, WOKE Mario Bros. movie, WOKE The Last of Us 2 etc etc, are not all massive successes.

Thank you, I was worried I would go to sleep without seeing a comment like yours today :)

Oh dear, I appear to have triggered someone. :grin:

^the go to response when you literally get proven wrong and has no argument to debate anything of what I said.

Feeding time is over, you can talk to my hand from now on.

We're literally discussing a company that is facing extreme backlash after alienating their core audience with ill advised changes in an attempt to be more "socially aware". But, no, you go ahead and tell yourself that I've somehow been proven wrong. :tongue:

Quoting: xoagrayI'm not familiar at all with FaceIT Anticheat. (I don't play a lot of competitive FPS) But if EAC is already working I wonder why they're bothering to change it?

FaceIT is used for highly competitive games. I haven't seen it integrated by developers, usually used by private servers and eSports events. But not a fan of FaceIT though. Not only is it a kernel level AC, they also require you to disable certain admin level Windows OS features just to use it because those features tend to block FaceIT.

So it's essentially malware.

I'll take a look when they actually have something to sell.
