I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.

      Correction: Rust doesn’t run properly on Linux because the developers fear an uptick on cheaters caused by EAC being less invasive on Linux than on Windows.

      But that’s a choice made by Garry Newman, not a limitation of the platform

      Rust doesn’t run properly on Linux because of EAC

      Nope. Rust on servers with EAC enabled doesn’t work, because Face Punch refuses to support Linux.

      I currently play on a server (without EAC) with a group of friends. They all use Windows and I run Linux. It plays as smooth as butter.
