One more reason why I don't see Proton as a replacement for official native support. Things can and will break, and they'll say it's not their problem because they only support Windows.

That's why Proton is in continuous development. When it's broken it's usually a matter of days or weeks before it's fixed. If the dev is going to ban you for the offense of using a compatibility layer then that's grounds for a refund (at least on Steam).

I like Proton and have nothing against it, but you are not really selling "continuous development" very well.

Proper and tested releases are often better for stability.

I don't understand how that contradicts what I said.

That's fair.

From my POV, Denuvo isn't my problem because they don't support Linux.

So if I never buy a game with Denuvo, I guess I'm good and I'll be one more lost customer. Oh well for me, oh well for them.

I don't really see myself as missing anything from modern AAA gaming, so no loss, here.
