    As another commenter here implied, there’s nothing that doesn’t run on someone’s Linux environment. Probably even on their slow cooker.

    Why would I want to play any of those games that actively harm the gaming industry as a whole through their predatory and addictive designs and that foster the most toxic of communities?

    Also, Genshin works via Proton or Lutris. So, image is wrong too lol.

    https://nerdburglars.net/gameguides/play-genshin-impact-on-linux-a-complete-guide/

    Destiny 2 wasn’t as bad as the others imo, still very predatory with microtransactions though. But, Marathon is the “better” version according to their owners, right?

          It is official; Netcraft now confirms: Linux is dying

          One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Linux community when IDC confirmed that Linux market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming close on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that Linux has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we’ve known all along. Linux is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.

          You don’t need to be a Kreskin to predict Linux’ future. The hand writing is on the wall: Linux faces a bleak future. In fact there won’t be any future at all for Linux because Linux is dying. Things are looking very bad for Linux. As many of us are already aware, Linux continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.

                Semantics, semantics.

                If you manage to run TempleOS on the bare metal, your CPU and fans will be stuck at 100% until you turn it off or your CPU overheats.

                Run it in a VM and you won’t have that problem.

                You can argue that anything above Ring -3 is virtual, but “if I do this my CPU’s going to die” is a pretty reasonable dividing line between “technically” and “actually”.

    Does it count if I run destiny 2 through a VM with passthrough and a bootleg copy of Windows?

        Pretty well during those rare moments where I still play. The GPU I use is unfortunately EOL (GTX 1080 Ti), but it’s nice and smooth. Basically native performance.

          I was honestly tempted to do this for League because that was the only reason I was keeping windows around for so long but I was unsure if there would still be some latency even with pass through turned on

      I started dual booting just to play it. It was disappointing.

    I have run genshin on both the steam deck and a relatively old laptop running mint.

    Neither was without hassles, but it played fine
