Game devs "grown up" in an environment where their user has no control on its machine's OS, therefore they thought that client side anti-cheat with a kernel rootkit was a silver bullet against cheaters.
With the rise of FOSS and Linux on consumer hardware it changes everything.
One day, all those people will have to admit that kernel level anti-cheat is not future proof and maybe they will start to find another solution.
Server side anti cheat supervised by AI could be the next better solution against cheaters.

Unfortunately this is a trend that will go on in the future.
Making native Linux games is hard especially when you have to deal with third party engine which may not handle Linux as well as Windows.

Quoting: Leopard

Quoting: BeamboomI thought this game didn't run well on desktop Linux? Has that changed?

Define desktop Linux.

If it is an Nvidia gpu; it has a big perf hit.

If it is AMD gpu with RADV driver; it is fine.

I completed the game on Fedora 36 with a RTX 2070 super and I get 80/90 fps at 1440p with high settings.
That's more than enough to enjoy the game.

Great to ear the base system is going to be updated as well 👍

Hopefully this issue will catch the right people in the community so we can bring with a solution in favour of compatibility.
I don't want people to give up on native Linux support because of this.

I'm not a big fan of the art direction but this is going too far...

Valve needs to release an updated but cheaper VR headset than the current Valve Index if they want to regain market share over Meta.

I wonder how many Steam Deck they already shipped.

I haven't plugged my Index for a while, I wonder if they improved SteamVR state on Linux since.

I tried the service on my PC with Edge Beta and I'm not impressed for now.
The latency is perceptible and on a game like Forza it's really difficult to control the car.
Not as good as Stadia for now.
