That's the attitude that we all need to have. Same here, if anything doesn't work on Linux, I ain't buying it.

I even got a refund from steam when rocket league lost Linux support when that one company bought it

Nice. You can run rocket league on heroic launcher btw. I have it through the epic store. Works flawlessly

Yes, it was more the principle than anything. I was terrible at that game and barely played it

Right there with ya. My 10 year old smokes me all the time in that game 😂

Same, I play it that way on the steamdeck

I didn't bother because I got plenty of playtime from it and got it through the Steam Controller/Link bundle as well. But I did consider it since I was ticked about losing Linux support.
