This is not a new issue…they’ve had time, 2 years in fact.

Epic Games and Valve announced the new EAC support for wine/proton last week. It’s definitely a new discussion.

Before the only option to get an EAC title to Linux was either porting it (and using the native Linux version of EAC) or removing EAC. As of a week ago, supporting EAC in proton is a new option.

That reply makes absolutely no sense. Most, if not all Proton games are unsupported by the dev teams and can break and it won’t be up to the devs to fix it unless they previously announced compatibility.

Worth nothing No Man’s Sky, where they have worked on and fixed issues as one of the devs who maybe ahead of the curve :).

Looks like user share on Steam still over a 1% and climbing, that’s over a million Linux users so far:

This is obviously before Steam Deck’s hit the market, where Valve estimate they will sales millions of those alone.

Interesting times ahead!

I’ll give that +1 for me
It’s super easy now just update EAC SDK to latest and enable proton/wine support

But hey, fellas, it’s been like 5 days since they launched :slight_smile: give them time to work on more important bugs, stabilize the servers and release the character transfer…
Would love to see any response from the devs if they’ll give it a shoot… atm everytime my game updates on windows i also check if it runs on linux :slight_smile:

Cheers :slight_smile:

I also keep checking every time they update. My problem is that the only Windows computer i have left right now is my desktop, and i dont have access to it at the moment. That means i dont get to play at all, unless i REALLY like the character creator.

As much as i love NW, im really not wanting to re-install Win10 for a single game.

Just leaving my +1. This would be greatly appreciated. I only have to dual boot windows because of New World.
