I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store
Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy... and then it's only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can't it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It's so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic... which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.
You're viewing a single thread.
Epic supports third party launchers
I think Steam is the only platform I avoid that works on Linux
Why would you avoid steam 😂
It is popular for a reason and Linux on desktop would be even more dead if it wasn't for them (and proton)
Proton’s help is anticheat
I was using linux before, I can use it after
And though I already said why I avoid it. It doesn’t adhere to Unix philosophy. Does it want to he a store? launcher? download manager? Mod repo? Community site? Chat program?
It should pick one and let someone else do another
I've been using Linux for approximately 20-25 years.
If we're talking about what one thing steam does well? Gaming!
It handles dependencies, and it makes windows games transparent to Linux users (you don't even know it's being emulated). In fact, from my understanding, some games run better than in windows in some cases
If you're using controllers, steam input also makes games a lot more playable.
If we're talking about the Unix philosophy though, what one thing does the Linux kernel do?
The Unix philosophy better targets daemons then user facing apps. In fact, if you look at xorg/xfree, one could argue it is one thing. But if you break it down into a different perspective, it could mean many things

Wine is not an Emulator

haven’t had issues using ps4 controllers without Steam. I even use it in Runelite

Be the kernel, it’s the only constant between separate deployments
I take it you're not a fan of Systemd
Not particularly
Can't you add it to Heroic Launcher?
No, but you can add their games to steam
