I've been seeing a few of this type of post, so I decided to share mine. Now, you might be wondering "why the heck is this guy posting his steam playtime chart in a Linux gaming community, when most of it is windows?"
Well, that's because Linux is part of the chart. Last year it wasn't. Just like all previous years. However this year, even if late in the year, I have playtime on Linux.
About half a year ago I built my first PC with Linux in mind from before getting the parts (first time I knew I'd be using predominantly Linux from the start). I still have my windows disk because I haven't got round to moving all the files from there yet, so its still formatted as NTFS and just mounted so I have easy access. I havent booted it since building the PC. I havent needed to. Sure I cant play Destiny 2 or Apex for example, but ehh. Never really played Apex much before anyway, and I'll live without destiny 2.
Heres to 2024 being 100% penguin, or at least being far more than windows π»
A few games that could support it with the flick of a switch (or quite literally a checkbox) such as Rust and Fortnite do not, but EAC itself does support Linux and quite well. VRChat uses EAC and it runs just fine (thousands of hours with it working), just as one example.
At this point, if a game doesn't work on Linux with EAC, it is 100% pure unadulterated laziness on the company's part. They can literally enable it and say "We officially don't support Linux, don't ask us for help if you play on it."
Fortnite doesn't work because of Tim Sweeney.
Rust doesn't work for technical reasons they're sorting out, they want to support Linux.
