The developers of Apex Legends have announced that they're going to be blocking the game completely on Linux platforms including Steam Deck.

God fucking damn it. Fuck off with the anticheat bullshit. Fucking plague is destroying gaming. If the whiny tryhards want "cOmP3Tit1v3 int3grIteE" or whatever dumb excuse the devs pulled out their ass this time then just make RANKED mode locked behind this malware-powered prison shit. Don't ruin the game for everyone. The majority of the player base isn't whining about cheaters, and this is true of pretty much every game. It's the tryhard comp scene most affected, let them enable it to play comp. At least give us the option to play on non anticheat servers. I hate how every multiplayer game is ruining itself over this garbage.

Apex was one of the titles that just worked, flawlessly. And I never faced anything that I could attribute to cheats over high skill.

Yes, there was some ALGS drama, but as a regular player, I never faced it.
