Valbe should automatically stop sales of any game that dips from verified to unplayable over these shenanigans.
I don’t think they should stop sales, but they should offer refunds at the publisher’s expense if the issue isn’t resolved within X number of days.

The Deck doing what I was hoping it’d do, light a fire under devs to get on board with Linux platforms

I love the deck just for that, im so happy valve is breaking the cycle of not enough pkayers not enough games

See this going around and… that is a LOT of reaching from a random CSR trying to placate an angry user.
“We are currently working with Rockstar games to find a fix” followed by “You can buy the game you already have for cheap” just means that Valve sent an email saying “Bro, what the fuck?”. And Rockstar will likely send a response of “Do you want GTA 6 or not?” and this will never come up again.
I would like to be proven wrong (GTA:O is trash but some people like it) but … not optimistic. And we get these kind of “A random CSR said something to make me stop asking to speak to their manager!” level of “leaks” a few times a year. The vast majority go nowhere.

In case of a fix for the Deck, this would roll through to the Linux desktop too, right?

Yes, almost certainly.

Oh HELL yeah. That means if we get some way to run Battleye on the Deck I can finally get Siege working both on the Deck and on my Linux partition and Windows can gtfo

Hate to break it to you, but Battleye already has proton support. Devs need to enable it. Ubisoft knows this and has done nothing.

And so does EA who hasn’t done it either and keeps adding the anti cheat to older Battlefield titles. Fuck AAA publishers.
- Link ( @Link@rentadrunk.org ) 3•8 hours ago
EA is using their own anticheat that they created and it doesn’t support Linux at all.

I thought they were introducing Easy Anti-Cheat to BFV and BF1 like they have used on BF 2042. EAC can run on Linux if setup properly but EA doesn’t care.

Funnily enough they were one of the first ones to enable Easy Anti Cheat with Star Wars Squadrons.
