The Bazzite console I built which is connected to my living room TV stands in contradiction. The Linux-driven gaming PC that’s sitting on my desk is confirmation.

Windows 11 and the forced obsolescence of hardware is leaving a sour aftertaste, and at this point a game maker essentially has to choose to not support Linux via Proton.

You might not be able to run Battlefield or CoD, but Marvel Rivals and Overwatch run particularly well, if not better on Linux.

And with Microsoft entering the handheld market, this is very much a question of Linux vs Windows for gaming.

I knew I liked those 404 folks. I might need to upgrade to a paid subscription.

Don’t be evil.

“Something changed” is an off ramp for those who are in too deep to back out without a mental crisis caused by accepting reality. More then they deserve, but it’s a way out while saving face.

Basically Christian Whitehead and a rag-tag group of fans saved the franchise, and it’s been slipping back into old patterns since. Frontiers introduced interesting ideas, but the next game needs to build on that, which, let’s be honest, it won’t.

Just give the franchise to the fans at this point.
