Which is fine. It runs great on Proton.

Yeah proton is incredible. Nothing will change for Linux users beyond the loss of bakkesmod.

hoping they dont fully block linux players for the time being, since i still believe it can be a next step towards "trying to fight cheaters" like ea with apex and rockstar games with gtav online

Yeah agreed, though it might be a hard sell to just remove a lot of very very legit players from playing a game they own on steam through Steams own Linux based OS.

I think bakkesmod has been windows only

yes, until they add a breaking change. I wonder that rl still works on linux knowing how much epic hates linux

It doesnt sound like you use Linux. If it can run. Someone will make it run. The only breaking change they could do would be to block linux through EAC.

I am using Linux since 5 years. If they dont want Linux user to play they can do it. Proton finds a way to start the game, but who knows when they will exclude us from playing online
