- himinlomax 6y agoThe main company working on anti-cheat software was bough by Epic, and they dropped their Linux efforts as a result.
- tvb12 6y agoEpic is kind of a thorn in the side for me when gaming (on a Linux distribution). There are a few Epic exclusive games that I'd like to play (Arise: a simple story, Journey, etc.), but they don't even have entries in protondb. That's probably due to Epic not having a launcher for Linux. A few months ago(?), I read it had become possible to run the launcher through Wine, but I don't think that's changed anything on the porting side. I worry that games which are released as Epic exclusives may fall by the wayside when/if they eventually become nonexclusive.
- ekianjo 6y agoYou can run the epic games store on Linux and so far it worls well for indie titles I tried there. Not sure about AAA titles.
- coldpie 6y agoDo you have a source for this claim?

- ThatPlayer 6y agoThe company being bought by Epic happened before this news about the Linux effort. So I don't think that timeline is correct.
