Can't wait for anti cheat to work with Linux ☹️

This is my biggest hold up. Pretty much any triple A game has anti cheat these days.

Most anticheat software actually runs on Linux! Even the previously stubborn EasyAntiCheat got its Linux-compatible version.

I know it can run on it but games like destiny and fortnite still have to allow it unfortunately

Most modern games can work. But this is a dev issue, not a "wait until it works on linux" issue

EAC, and BattleEye both work on Linux, all the dev has to do is tick a "Proton Compatible" checkbox. Which many publishers/devs, namely Epic, don't do because they hate linux with a red hot passion for some unknown reason.
