I got a PS3 and a PS4 so I wouldn't need to use Windows for gaming. That's not an issue anymore, though.

Steamdeck here and the last time i played on Windows was like 2015/2016 but never again after Win10 shutdown my System for an Update while i played a LoL ranked Game.. That was the last Time i used Windows for privat use. After that i formated the HDD and installed Linux Mint

I'm still very happy with this decision

I thought LoL was one of the games that require windows for kernel level anticheat?

[–] delikt@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Yes, but at least the kernel Anti Cheat belongs since 2024 i belive? There was a long Time before DXVK or Proton you can play nearly nothing on Linux but LoL worked "okayish". Nothing close to play ranked but for a casual normal game it was good enought to let me switch to Linux this times and ditch Windows at all

That was a somewhat recent development, they had many years to suffer playing Leauge on Linux c:
