Valve has done a lot, but until you start getting the big "forever" games to support Linux, it'll never be an acceptable substitute for most home users. Doubly so for anyone with kids.
- nemomarx 1y agoThe main thing is anti cheats now. Any big forever single player game works, but online stuff is still dicey because the AC companies don't want to enable ports for various titles
- red-iron-pine 1y agomost of the "forever" games have low requirements and are generally free from OS-level fuckery, unless Rockstar or Epic start making their launchers a requirement. Even then they generally work under Linux with Proton. as someone else mentioned, anti-cheat is a big problem, and on a linux system that runs into both the practical challenges as well as the "it's a FOSS box and no one makes me install a kernel module unless I approve" angle.
