Linux is getting better it's almost there. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Kedly@lemm.ee 1 point 2 years ago I dont know what the hell you are talking about dude. If the game has shitty drm but a pirated version doesnt, you can buy the game (or dont if you dont care about giving developers money) and then pirate it to get around that. If the game doesnt have a pirated version that skips the DRM, which is pretty much the ENTIRETY of online only games due to their nature, then yeah, you have to either accept the drm or not play it. I was merely countering your point that you can't pirate AND support devs. I have no idea why you are bringing up games that you straight up cannot pirate. Lastly, being a slave to major releases is a choice. Personally I only touch about 1 every 5 years, because the vast majority of new video game experiences come from indie games nowadays, so if drm is someones line in the sand, avoiding a new release because it has it isnt the loss you think it is to the person who drew that line permalink fedilink source parent [–] frozen@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Helldivers 2 works almost perfectly on Linux. I had to nest it in a gamescope session to fix some weird mouse issues, but that was it. I dual-boot Windows and I've never even launched it there. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] foo@programming.dev 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) I just press a green button in steam permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] frozen@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Cool, me too. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] foo@programming.dev -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) Not on Linux though, you had to do a bunch of fucking about to almost make it flawless. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] frozen@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) No, I literally had to add one change to the game launch properties one time.
