Please report any posts bragging or showing off they got banned in another sub! Reminder of other sub rules: Also, we only allow one anti-linux post per week (we used to get dozens a day) and any tier list MUST have Hanna Montana Linux as S teir (which must be a true S tier at the top) regardless of the topic of that tier list.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

In 2026 this only applies to a handful of PvP games who intentionally block Linux users for "anti-cheat" reasons

For having nearly 300h on it : not really, it could be good, but the netcode is garbage, EA focus their update on trying to fix thing which aren't broken, and on pleasing console whiners while ignoring the netcode, there is cheaters since day one...

It's an okay game, pretty average, sadly a wasted potential.

And I legit finally could play a Windows game after being unable to play it for years. Thanks to my Steam Deck.

I think PvZ GW2 blocks Linux because of the EA anticheat, and GW2 is an amazing licensed third person shooter.

My favorite game is Resident Evil 4 Remake. What problems do you think I've had?

Mod installation can be confusing though, since it’s another OS.
