It's even simpler then that.

It's which games use EAC or BattleEYE and have dog shit devs that won't just turn on proton support. It's seriously just this at this point. I feel like every time I go looking though protonDB a majority of the garbage rated games are anticheat/drm related problems.

Fucking fromsoft games use EAC and they have worked out of the box day 1 on Linux.

Yeah I managed to solve that for some games by installing the proton EAC plugin. Squad works for instance.

But games introducing kernel-level DRM I wouldn't install on my Windows machine anyway. I guess the person I replied to potentially doesn't know how to deploy a new operating system. So they might not care about all that anywho.

But calling everyone else dumb because they don't know how to do something is ridiculous.
