    If you wanted to play any of the top 10-20 most played games, which are pretty much all online games that use kernel level anti-cheat.

        Roblox (and don’t even bother saying but but but it can be done for this one), COD, Warzone, Fortnite, Apex, PUBG, and GTA online alone are in the top 10 lol. None work on Linux. Then you’ve got Battlefield 6 and a dozen others.

          Oh ok, 6 games, my point stands

          Answer to their edit: barelly any of those can be considered top 20 PC games tbh, maybe GTA, PUBG and Battlefield

            They’re all PC games, and they all have huge PC player bases. Those 6 games alone would have a 50+ million daily player count combined.

            Steam is not the only store in town. The “no steam no buy” mentality has thankfully eroded a lot.

              Yep i agree, let’s also hope that people consider GOG and Itch.io more :D

                While I love GoG for what they’re doing, they’ll never become a real alternative because devs and publishers other than indies don’t want to give their games away for free, which is what making them DRM free does.
