minus-squaremissingno@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up11arrow-down21·2 months agoThis is why I don’t see Proton as a substitute for proper support. Because if they don’t actually support the platform, they could break it at any time and say you’re outta luck.
minus-squaretee9000@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up20·2 months agoIve only heard of it not working due to anti cheat. Is there any other common support killer?
minus-squareconciselyverbose@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up34arrow-down1·2 months agoNope. Games pretty much work unless the publisher explicitly chooses to break them. That doesn’t mean everything is always perfect, but games don’t generally just randomly break on proton. It’s almost all anticheat.
