Selaco is much better than this. It's basically F.E.A.R+Classic doom
It runs on linux & utilizes the GZDoom engine & for some reason attacked by the anti-woke mob

I completely forgot about that game. I played an early demo and thought it was pretty good.
Just torrent your games.
Stop rewarding companies for taking advantage of you.

Didn't fall for it, even when they whisper sweet little lies in my ear, I just say to myself, I quit gaming. I'm done. If I can't own it, I ain't playing it. And now I just joined the class war. Because you know, there is no war but the class war.
I can't own it, I'm pirating it.

Was this before or after this: https://lemmy.world/post/29593011
Because I'm curious why Valve would have gone to so much trouble to make the game run on Linux just to ruin that.
Well the game runs well if you just launch it with only one Proton configuration and keep playing on that. The issue is changing the Proton version is recognized as multiple installations by the DRM and it locks you out after a couple of tries.
This is what I didn't understand. Thank you for explaining.
i wanted to buy it because i know it will be good.
but ill pirate it instead as soon as its cracked. thanks ill save myself the money, you fucks.
it won’t be cracked, you have to hope the devs leak the drm-free version
Not that I would have bought it - not my type of game - but this game gets on my blacklist.
Eh 70 dollars for 10 hours of repetitive gameplay is bad value anyway.
No way, it’s only 10 hours? Eternal was longer than that, and so was 2016!
I finished DOOM (2016) in 8.8 hours. Granted I didn't stop for collectables and was on normal mode. I tried Eternal but got bored after 2 hours so that's what I'm basing it off.
My steam friends currently have about 17 hours (they bought it early) but they like collecting stuff and getting 100% achievements. I'm not sure how long the story is without 100%ing it but it shouldn't be too different from the other games.

Don't tell competitive gamers that. LOL, CS, Overwatch, COD whatever is about a simple game loop for those who enjoy that loop.
Man, they're taking the "dark ages" part seriously.
Only way for this to change is to vote with your (virtual) feet and wallet and "cancel" games that have DRM, in my opinion.
Good luck, there is DRM on almost every peace of software you buy. Most of it you never notice but it is there. I am guessing ~~Id~~ ~~Bethesda~~ Microsoft went a little too hard on their DRM and didn't learn from EAs blunder. We will probably have another Spore situation here and its becomes going to become the number one pirated game of 2025. Or maybe not, the last Doom game wasn't that great and I am assuming this one is trash too.
There are a lot of indie/open games that are DRM-free. I refuse to think all good games are the ones with DRM
One of Steam's selling point to developers is that it has easy DRM tools for them to use. Bethesda probably added their own DRM on top of Steam's. But no for profit company is going to let you pirate software they spent thousands or millions to developed.

Seeing this pains me, especially considering Id Software's history with Linux. Prior to being bought by Bethesda, most of Id's games had official native Linux ports. Even Doom 3 had a native Linux port, it doesn't seem to work anymore but there are source ports like Dhewm3 available for it.
It wouldn't astonish me if this were a semi-deliberate act by microsoft. While they're trying very hard to expand to every platform, non-windows pcs seem to be the exception. Linux and OSX have the game gamepass support as your phone.
This is what happens when bean counters make the decisions. Linux is only 4% of market share so I am sure the cost of supporting Linux users was not worth it.
so I am sure the cost of supporting Linux users was not worth it.
What's so fucking annoying about these DRM issues is that basically all of the AntiCheat and DRM we have WORK ON LINUX IF YOU ENABLE ONE FUCKING SETTING
Easy AntiCheat for example is quite literally a checkbox at some point of compiling or whatever, I've seen someone do it!
Shows you how little they value Linux games
