"I know zero people who play it, so let me into the inside knowledge about it. "

“Hi, my friends and I play it. We’re people. Here’s why we like it.”

“You sound like an ad”.

My brother in Christ, you asked for someone to tell you about the game and then I did - wtf did you think was going to happen. I’m not even really giving it a glowing review. I’m mostly saying there’s not a lot of great competition in the scene right now and this game does enough good to be fun to play. At the cost of free, my poorer friends are happy to play it while we wait for the next paid game we know we want to get.

I’d love to be playing Nightreign but it’s not good enough for them to buy in, and other games like… Oh what’s that extraction shooter by the original Hell Let Loose team… Hunger? That’s not out yet.

Like ya dawg, I like The Finals - I’m a guy on the Internet responding to a comment from a random about the Finals. That’s a pretty safe bet.

My friends and I play it nightly, because it’s a good casual FPS and it has many modes, decent progression. Honestly environment destruction is such a powerful mechanic for making games have variability between matches that it makes each feel unique - like a puzzle even at times.

There’s not a great deal of free games right now that are capturing our attention, we wanted an FPS this month, and there’s been no paid games everyone’s been willing to jump on.

Funny enough we’re waiting on Arc Raiders to drop which is also a game by the studio behind The Finals.

Ya sorry, I listed two groups without explaining what the groups meant.

I can see that, but I will point out that even on that front I haven’t run into any issues. But here’s a quick run down of what I’ve played and/or proton said is good vs not.

Works: The Finals, Dota, CSGO, deadlock, Arc Raiders, marvel rivals, overwatch 2 (I don’t play this), rocket League (I haven’t tried on Linux but proton says it’s good), dune (haven’t played), world of tanks (haven’t tried but proton says it’s good),

Doesn’t work: Valorant, fortnite, rainbow six siege, warzone, rust (?), pubg, Apex legends, delta force.

Without running the numbers but looking at the stats page of steam, it’s probably safe to say more than 75% or more of all current players would be unaffected by moving to Linux in terms of compatibility. That’s a little unfair because CSGO does like 10 of these games in player count every day.

The non-steam games probably skew this percentage lower but still, it’s not like the multiplayer or competitive multiplayer scene is dry and vacant on Linux.

Just chiming in as someone who’s relatively new to Linux gaming for anyone curious or on the fence. In the 4 months or so of being on Arch Linux, I have encountered zero games that don’t run despite playing a large variety of games.

I’m not saying they don’t exist, and I’m not saying there aren’t hiccups or bugs out there, but boy is it a lot closer to “completely seamless” than I think most people imagine.

Genuinely funny comment, thank you.

That’s sorta my point, it shouldn’t be seen as a start. We can agree that the AfD would be an immediate loss, they would make things immediately worse and the country would very quickly decline for everyone but the elite who would be insulated from their own policies.

I need people in Germany to see the CDU as a slow loss, because they make things worse at a slower time scale, and the country will continue to decline under their guidance for everyone but the elite who will benefit from their policies.

The AfD losing is good. The CDU winning over the AfD winning is better. But both scenarios are still a loss, and they are the signals that the system is organically producing worse results and it’ll continue to increase the magnitude of those poor results until we improve the system.

The CDU should barely be considered a win in Germany. They pave the road that the AfD will walk down. Conservatives make everything worse and fascists thrive in poor conditions.
