After how badly Bungie botched D2 pvp over the years in every aspect, from the sandbox to the matchmaking, and continued to double down on those decisions instead of changing course, I have zero faith in them to keep a pvp-only game alive for very long. Can't wait to see it become a FOMO-ridden mess with half the game taken away.

On top of that, they're using the same rootkit anticheat that barely even works for D2. And on top of that, Battleye has stated themselves that Linux support is a very simple opt-in for developers, yet they refuse to do so for either game in 2026. While I have a lot of issues with Arc Raiders (mostly their genAI usage), at least they enabled Battleye's Linux support with zero issues.

Even if I could play it this is a hard pass. Their management and c-suite can rot. Such a waste because the actual devs clearly have skill and talent and can make cool shit, they've proven this time and time again, but Bungie management is actually abusive, both to their employees and the players.
