Aren't we all tired of this meme by now? Especially in this new age of Steam deck?
Seems a bit like trolling at this point.
Anti cheat is the biggest obstacle now, can't overcome that and if you and your friends enjoy playing together on a game that doesn't support it then you're SoL. Unfortunately only 75% or so of the games my friend group plays are compatible.
The EAS anti-cheat is on Linux now too, so the small minority of games that require anti-cheat tech on Linux is getting even smaller; it's heading in the right direction.
But my point is more towards the fact that we're trying to apply memes to cover 100% of something when it's really covering 1% of something.
It gets tiring/trolling after a while, especially with it's repetitiveness.
Noone said it was. But presenting the 1% (Linux gaming doesn't work) as 100% is not factual, its anecdotal.
And the meme leans into the 100%, which is tiresome to see over and over again, like if some company is desperate to try and sway/shape a narrative, instead of just people sharing humorous/insightful memes.
