Ok...but you don't have to pay to skip it so...whatever.

Game looks boring AF anyways, as do most shooters. W+left click+new pictures= fun apparently.

Malware is malware.

They put a rootkit on your computer if you install their game.

That drm prevents linux support so I guess it's a non issue to me either way.

Works on Steam Deck with no tinkering. I think Linux support is good.

How well does it run on the Steam deck ?

I haven't messed with them a ton. I am running a mixture of medium and low settings and getting 35-40 FPS. Battery life is about an hour at full charge. It's playable and fun but hopefully they will have some optimizations eventually.

Huh it was borked when I last looked and doesn't nguard not work on linux? I couldn't find any statements by the devs. I have a feeling this is more of an oversight then them caring about linux players.

It runs, unless you have very high-end cards where users are reporting crashes. The fix is to restrict FPS to keep your GPU mhz lower. Mostly AMD people but I have seen complaints from a couple team green too.
