Depending on the anticheat it can be as simple as enabling Linux/Proton support on the dev's side with a flag. I can't play Destiny 2 with my Destiny obsessed friend, that's about all I've been impacted. Didn't really get into it anyway. I don't even check ProtonDB anymore before buying new games, they almost all work flawlessly these days. permalink fedilink source parent [–] LunchEnjoyer@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago (1 child) Not quite, steam now installs EasyAntiCheat for linux when you first setup steam for instance. The games you will struggle with are games such as those published by Riot, some view that as a bonus though 😅 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 year ago So what I'm hearing is that it'll prevent my former League addiction from kicking back up?

Overwatch, Splitgate and Titanfall work as well and so do most "non-real-time games", like Trackmania. Riot's games and Rainbow don't work. Check protondb for the games that ate important to you. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Ulrich@feddit.org 1 point 1 year ago Last I checked Deadlock has banned Steam Deck (and anything that looks like Steam Deck). permalink fedilink source parent [–] Evotech@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago Cs works, as long as you don’t want to play faceit or esea permalink fedilink source parent [–] Ulrich@feddit.org 4 points 1 year ago* For the most part, no.

All work great as multiplayer titles on linux. There's a great trove of fun games that don't require kernel level anticheat because the the community of players isn't as toxic. permalink fedilink source parent
