I've been 100% Linux for over a year now. If it doesn't run, I don't buy it.

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

Rocket League runs fine on Linux, they just lost native support.

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

[–] YerbaYerba@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] penquin@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

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

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

Same, I play it that way on the steamdeck

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

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.
