    This really isn’t a W. Even though I don’t play any of these games, Ive had friends who have had a real interest in switching to Linux, but didn’t because they couldn’t play LOL or Valorant.

    It’s not really linux’s fault by any means, but it’s no W.

      LoL specifically may be for the best. I don’t know anyone who got into that game in a healthy way or thought they enjoyed it in retrospect after switching to a new game.

      CoD and CS with super powers sure but not League of Legendary Toxicity

      That’s like wanting to try vaping to help you stop smoking but never doing it because you can’t find nicotine vapes that taste that specific burning shit flavor you’re used to.

      They can keep that shit on windows. The anti cheat will probably evolve to include AI bullshit like nanny assistants to make sure you’re using your computer like a human is supposed to and live facial identify verification to make sure you’re watching the anti cheat ads they’ll start playing when you die.

      The joke is that those games suck so bad that even having the option to play them on any form of Linux would make said OS worse
