Saying gaming on Linux is caner is "hate"? Lol

Come on. Go look at forums, communities, etc and see how much effort people have to put in to Linux at times just to get sound working properly, and that's before a game is even loaded.

Just look at comments here, with problems you never see on windows.

Linux still has these issues, though they've gotten tremendously better.

When's the last time you loaded windows and sound didn't work out of the gate?

Windows just works, that's what OP is on about. He wants to play games, not play "what isn't working in my OS now?".

This is also part of what drives the console market - people just want to play their game.

The Linux community can be blind about these barriers for tee average user. Yea, you can lookup and learn commands, where stuff goes, etc. But by god is that a pain in the ass. You've gotta be sufficiently motivated about what your doing to want to get through that. And I say this as someone who had Unix classes a long time ago.
