I would love to swap to Linux if we could get games with kernel level anti cheat to be compatible.

I finally switched to Linux just a few days ago when upgrading my laptop's SSD, and so far I have only opened minecraft to see how it runs - extremely smoothly, even though I could not figure out how to make use the Nvidia GPU. I'd say it runs noticeably better on Linux than it did on Windows.

Linux people responses will be like: “ive never seen that, works fine on my machine. i’m curious tho what version of Wine, Proton are you using? …. oh? what’s your desktop environment? … oh KDE…? ah must be a Bazzite thing? i’ve never seen that before on Mint with GNOME on my Intel Graphics Card”

Interesting. I beat hollow knight on my Linux desktop years ago. And I'm currently playing through silksong on my steam deck. And you're right. I've never seen this lol.

I played both HK and silksong on arch, and haven't noticed any glaring problems like that.

[–] SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 5 points 3 days ago

I just installed bazzite and hk, no issues.

Really the thing that does not work for Linux gaming is when you have a high dpi display. So many games render the UI wrong.

I don’t know if they work correctly on Windows either.
