Pays 100$ for windows 11 pro expecting to not see targeted advertising.
“Play Candy Crush on the Windows App Store Now!” ad baked into the Lock Screen ffs why
Buy an OEM key next time, I've never spent more than 20 bucks for Pro.
Or, you know, don't use Windows
Yeah, I mostly use Linux. Unfortunately, certain games only run on Windows and you're stuck using it if you want to play those titles.
Ah, anti-cheat problems? Feels like those are nearly the only ones that won't play nice with Proton nowadays
Some work surprisingly well. Elden ring for example. The funny thing is when I close Elden ring in windows, the anti cheat splash page stays and I need to close it from task manager. In Linux it just closes by itself as it should.
Isn't Elden Ring single player? Why would that need anti-cheat?
There's PVP and CO-OP too.
There are so many good games out there, I can simply skip the ones that don't run on Linux.
Pretty much only ones that use an invasive, kernel-level anticheat. I don't want that on my system regardless.
