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?

[-] WeebLife@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

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.
