If I recall correctly this was announced years ago, I remember that it was one of the reasons that made me stop playing. That and the constant aggravation at the breakage that happened whenever they updated their client.
Anyone sane played league of legends on steamdeck when there is dota?
League of Legends is way more accessible than Dota.
That's incredible take for the thread about league being not accessible to play on linux anymore
Accessible in the sense that it is easier to get into.
Not anymore
If you happen to enjoy spending your time listening to your so-called team mates actively trying to force a surrender vote because your bot lane got one less minion kill on the first wave than the other team's mid laner.
Why tf would this need a client-side anti-cheat!?!?!?
It is useless in this game!
I get it in VALORANT. It is hard to detect cheats when mechanical skill is part of who wins but a topdown moba doesn't have any of that!
Correct me if I am wrong but I think this sucks.
W for linux
How is that a win? I, among many other people, am now forced to use windows to play my favorite game. I am not going to stop playing so the only choice is to stop using Linux.
@Chadus_Maximus @_Sprite Personally I go the opposite way... If a game stops working on Linux, I stop playing it... There are too many enjoyable games in the world to stick to just one 😅
