100% of games worth playing work on Linux!
Oh, yeah? I have a super niche German adventure game from 2004 that I can't get up and running. But then it also won't work on at least Win7 and up (I tried). I can't even get that running on an XP virtual machine. This game has become my nemesis.
See if you can trick Ross Scott into playing it. :) He has near infinite patience for forcing old games to run, and a skilled network to lean on.
What about an emulator like 86box or so? And which game is it?
I actually enjoy Battlefield 1 + 5 very much, and they killed it with their anticheat shenanigans. I am still salty about this.
Fuck EA.
Where's my hype the time quest? I tried and it was a huge pain in the ass and I couldn't fully get it working.
