What's the point of switching to Linux if you're gonna install DRM and anti-cheat software? They're no better than the Windows spyware and in some cases more invasive.

Then don't install Linux. I didn't.

>>58238387
Because you're still running them on something that isn't Windows and is therefore superior.

There are games that run faster on Wine, believe it or not.

But anon, I didn't. That's what my Windows partition is for, while all my work and browsing happens on Linux. That way I can enjoy the botnet's advantages without actually giving it any important personal data. It just knows what gaymes I play.

Vulkan runs great on Linux. Too bad no one uses Vulkan.

Actually quite a few Denuvo games are still not cracked.

Denuvo is copy protection, not DRM isn't it ?

punkbuster, nexon's bullshit, and so on... all anti-cheat shit can do the same things... it's just as insane to allow that shit to be installed just to play a stupid video game, unless you're running it in a VM with nothing else on it or something

Copy protection is DRM.

I got 2 Linux partitions, one for the botnet stuff

The people doing this are just cheap-asses that want a free Windows and think they are "good at computers" because their mommy told them so. They don't really care about freedom, they just want free.

Then they would pirate it (like the rest of the planet), not use Linux

Have you looked at the games whilst they are benchmarked? Even "native steam games" have gimped graphics that don't work properly, it's not exactly hard to run faster then things like dynamix shadows don't work and vegetation looks like fucked up oil paintings.

Have you ever browsed reddit or Linux forums? These people are too scared and paranoid to pirate anything.

>>58238387
The Linux version of games often have no or less intrusive DRM.

You can find plenty of explanations about why people ditched win10.
>>
>>58239233
and a lot of denuvo games are either cracked or bypassed.
