Want games are holding you back. Between lutris and steam's proton compatibility I personally haven't run across much.
Ohhh I will jump on this one as well.
EAs WRC is unsupported, this isn't a deal breaker by itself but is a contributing factor. AC Rally isn't in a place to challenge it for now, but should get there eventually. I could also play more dirt rally 2.0 as well
Le Mans Ultimate, the performance for me is unacceptable. Jumping from 30 to 140fps and makes me feel motion sick because of that. It is my main racing sim, and dealing with that for long endurance races is impossible. Yes I had the LMU fork of proton, it is the only way to get into races. But the LMU Devs are not exactly Linux friendly and aren't trying to help out.
And that's about it for games that don't work for me. If LMU worked as well or close to on Linux as it does on windows I would switch. But it is such a huge portion of my pc use I am having to use windows for now
All of EA's new titles use Javelin anti-cheat. It uses a Windows kernel module, so it's not possible to run with Wine/Proton.
Given that EA forces users to run what is effectively a rootkit just to play their games, I feel like the only good choice is to stop playing those games altogether. Or, at the very least, compartmentalize your gaming machine and the network it's on.
Yeah this along with their insistent focus of producing AI slop makes me not even want to look at games from EA. I admittedly haven't even tried any recent EA games but that has more been due to lack of interest in their recent titles.
EA's games and many anti cheat games arent able to be ran on Linux. Not because its technically not able to, but officially speaking, many anti cheat just ban Linux outright.
Shame.
