Personally not an issue for me since I disabled EAC and use permanently offline mode, but it’s always great to see Deck specific fixes like this.

It’s just hearsay, but I’ve read a few times that EAC actually makes supporting Linux fairly easy and at almost no cost, but the game companies just don’t care

Supposedly so long as it’s the Epic Online (EOL) version of EAC, then it’s about as easy as checking a tick box in the settings.

Any developer who cares enough to enable it would most likely test that it works as expected and make a couple of tweaks before announcing the support. It’s usually not a good idea to take a vendor by their word that it “just works”.

I mean, it would be a bad look if one of the 8 most played games on SD in 2023 was gimped in 2024…

I wonder if this will affect my main computer. I had one of those rare configurations that caused the anticheat to completely tank my fps. Disabling the anticheat made it perfectly playable.
