As a little PSA word of warning, it seems EA / Respawn have begun another little ban wave or they've tweaked something in their anti-cheat that Linux / Steam Deck players are getting caught in for Apex Legends.

    Pretty happy Genshin Impact hasn’t gone scorched earth against Linux users who have to rely on custom launchers, yet. What’s ironic is that Apex Legends is supposed to be officially supported on Linux though.

      Likely a false positive, they happen on Windows too

        I don’t play Apex, but I don’t think I would go back to a game that falsely bans me. This seems like a big mistake on their part

      I haven’t gotten Genshin to work on Linux, though it may be because I just made a passing attempt, expecting a ban. Then again, I only play it once a blue moon anyway.
