Valve announced a change for Steam today that will make things a lot clearer for everyone, as developers will now need to clearly list the kernel-level anti-cheat used on Steam store pages.
I didnt buy Helldivers 2 because of it. Explained why to all my friends who kept trying to convince me to buy it. I didn’t convince them, they didn’t convince me… but hey I appreciate the warning in the future.

Plenty of others complained, the difference was just that they could swallow the pill and keep playing. Linux players were just fucked.
True ! But now we have an excuse to play better games

Yeah, i mean it’s not useless to make it visible. It’s a good news in the end.
Meanwhile hd2 runs just fine under Linux, without kernel fuckery.
