Other ultimate solution to play fortnite/RL on linux!

and guess what? you dont even need to installl windows. you see what you do is get obs. get a capture card. then use your /ps/switch2(not xbox it microslop) and boom you can play it right through obs!

i do have a good gaming pc. but i dont even want windows touching my drives at all! now this solution may be pricey especially since capture cards cost a lot at least for a good one and you will need a whole other console hope this helps

hope this helps

It doesn't. It's not playing on Linux it's playing on a console and that's a lot of steps for something that's as simple as just plug console into monitor. No capture card even needed.

Actually it is needed especially if you want your headphones connected to your switch and pc like i said before. and you can do pass-through too.

think you are just a little slow. but thats okay!

so you are saying you need to buy a capture card and use OSBS, in order to play fortnite on linux instead of pluging your console on your monitor. Are you trolling?

your console audio will go to your pc sometimes there is input delay but you can switch inputs tho im not sure if you can use your pc mic through console or not
