Make fun of Apex all you want, it was the best performing game of its kind on the Deck and kept me from selling my Deck sooner. Now, I’m even a Linux convert because of how well games like Apex worked away from their Windows origins. Seeing a large game like this be killed off on Linux is awful. I’m not sure where the blame lies (with Apex, right?) but it needs to be fixed.

Wouldn't put it on my deck if it printed me a 5 dollar bill every day.

Nor on my cell phone.

Let me guess without reading: kernel-level anti-cheat?

[-] _spiffy@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 hours ago

Nope. They had anti cheat that supported it, but they experienced higher issues with cheating via linux than elsewhere. Which sucks. People who cheat suck.

It's EAC, which is kernel level on Windows but not on Linux. I guess they wanted to go full kernel-level anti-cheat.

It's using EAC which supports Linux.
