You’ve never heard of AppImages on Linux, that just… open the app on doubleclick? No install or anything?

Because that’s what I got when I picked ‘Download for Linux’ on GOG…

Get lost, you know nothing and speak nonsense.

And don’t forget to mention everywhere how Linux community is hostile, and not you being a sorry excuse for a being.

You are just trolling, or being in bad faith.

I don’t know about Witcher 3, because I didn’t buy it on GOG. I bought it on Steam, works out of the box, no issues.

So either tell me your experience, or stay on Windows.

I have played a game from GOG on Linux (Icewind Dale), it had Linux download, I opened it and the game played 100%, even multiplayer with non-Linux users.

Dunno about Witcher 3 specifically.

I play games outside of Steam as well?

Wtf, those launchers play games without issues outside the Steam? What are you talking about?

And if that last 1% of games does crazy shit, it can stay on Windows. There is no need to fully support everything from Windows (down to exploits) on Linux.

Stop giving companies excuses to do outrageous shit.

Like it’s absolutely mindboggling how much shit do people eat in order to play a game. Kernel level anticheat has access to your entire computer, and you can’t even know what it does.

And for absolutely no benefit at all. You can make anticheats on server, or simple client stuff without reading your entire memory.

How is gaming support on Linux “still garbage”?

90% of games work out of the box. No tweaks, just press play.

You have options for launchers, Steam, Heroic, Lutris…

I’ve dropped Windows about 8 years ago, and I missed on a couple of games, mostly due to the anticheat bullshit.

I even mod my games on Linux without issues.

There were more issues with gaming on Windows than issues I had on Linux.

You can break it yourself if you compile your own kernel. I do, btw.

No need to support it for the general public.

And it’s maddening that people will fight to open backdoors to Linux instead of fighting the companies from pulling that shit.

We don’t need spy backdoors in Linux, keep that shit in Windows.

Adoption does not include bad things.

Fuck kernel-level anticheat.

I refuse to buy or play any games with Kernel Anti-cheat.

And I will die on that hill.

iOS and Androids are the king now.

People don’t buy computers nowadays.

Repeat it after me:

The most common phrase of this decade will be ‘faster than expected’.

Bingo!!!

I had this on my 2024 bingo card.

God I hope I’m wrong about 2025 BOE.

BOE 2025 LET’S GOOO
