IIRC it is still limited to user level perms on Linux

If a game needs you to enter sudo to run then thats a problem.. or a desktop theme

Isnt that why you can't play on Linux anymore? Not granting root?

..no, the issue with typical anticheats like EAC is that some studios simply want to avoid also patching for Linux, and the file system/utilities of wine can trip cheat detection

Iirc no, it's because of vanguard which is a rootkit

I mostly coming off of EAC which can be configured to run within user perms, but damn vanguard just reads like spyware

Yeah there are a few specific flags that Vanguard looks for when it runs, you can easily bypass it by adding some flags to a virtual machine.

Nah I've given you enough, just search up a video guide on YT.

Thank you for not. My therapist would thank you too, if I had one.
