Linux is all good if you only play singleplayer games. My friends started playing the finals yesterday and it doesn't run on linux because of EAC. Windows can run all my games without any proton switching and all the nvidia features like ray reconstruction and pathtracing with frame generation just works (alan wake 2 looks so good).

I still believe OP has given us something to discuss here by pointing out the current state of game compatibility.

If you don't, then I suppose there's nothing for you to see here.

Feel free to make another post to discuss it then. Something like, "Games that don't work on Linux because of EAC - links to voice your support for Linux compatibility included." That's constructive and can get into how to best ask for support (e.g. I want to play on my Steam Deck, but this needs Linux EAC support enabled).

But saying "I'm bailing on Windows because of game X" isn't helpful, it's just complaining. Instead of that, focus that frustration onto something constructive that might actually solve the problem.
