- mrits 5y agoThe widely known use cases for FreeBSD doesn't have much to do with it "excelling" as a server OS.
- Shared404 5y agoWhere does FreeBSD excel then, because last time I checked all the widely known use cases were split about 50/50 serving and routing, with a side of Playstation. Re: Linux gaming: Sorry, I couldn't hear you over the sound of the MCC playing on my Linux box. And Ori. And Stardew, RoR2, Everspace, XCOM2, SWTOR, Hades, DST, Hollow Knight, FTL, Terraria, Human Fall Flat, Portal 1/2, and a variety of other games. As far as anticheat is concerned, that's actively being worked on by Valve and the largest stake holders.
- mrits 5y agoNow list the games that you can't play
- Shared404 5y agoLiterally none that I've tried have given me problems. But to the working games, let me add: Overwatch, League of Legends, Anything from GBA/GB/NES/SNES/DS/OtherRetroSystems, Starcraft. Oh, and Minecraft of course. I'm sure I can come up with more. Edit: One steam library checking later - and I'll note, this is stuff that I've actually played on Linux (and is also filtered by names I think people would recognize): Arma 3, Blitzkrieg 2, Pit People, Castle Crashers, BattleBlock Theater, Unturned, Invisible Inc., Baldurs Gate, Undertale, Speedrunners, Dota 2, Gary's Mod, Everspace, Raft, AoE 3. This makes up the VAST majority of my steam library, none of which was purchased checking for Linux compatibility. It's one thing to say that a specific game you want doesn't work, and quite another to say it in general doesn't work. Edit again: Rocket League. That's it. That's the only one that I know of issues with, and I don't know if it even still has issues - I stopped playing when it required an Epic account. Oh hey, lookie there: https://www.protondb.com/app/252950 https://www.protondb.com/app/252950 . Sounds like that works too.
- trasz 5y agoYou could (to some extent) say the same thing about FreeBSD: https://github.com/shkhln/linuxulator-steam-utils/wiki/Compatibility https://github.com/shkhln/linuxulator-steam-utils/wiki/Compa...
- NexRebular 5y agoThere's also Proton port but have no idea on how it works nowadays. https://www.freshports.org/emulators/wine-proton/ https://www.freshports.org/emulators/wine-proton/
