    Only reason I don’t switch to linux is because of both riot games and easy anti cheat(you can kinda play league of legends most of the time)

    but valorant’s vanguard is just straight up built for windows so you can’t cheat in their game, so you can’t even open that game in linux

    And 99% of games that use easy anti cheat are also unplayable (except elden ring somehow)

    Tbh I haven’t really played their any games that fall into this category lately, but I don’t want to have to install windows every time I get a urge to play league and tilt myself

    and I know that dual boot exists but I have a very limited storage right now (I’m only on a 480gb ssd since my hdd broke)

      An interesting point… i didn’t even think about the anti-cheat engines nor considered they’d be bound to windows but yeah i get it, i deal with that on licensing services.

      I feel your pain on storage. It’s cheaper now but it’s all relative. I’ll save your UN and hit you up if i stumble into something that may help.

      A lot of EAC games work just fine on proton now. For any game released and/or updated since September 2021 enabling EAC on proton for the devs is as easy as ticking a checkbox.
