      The steam deck being on a Linux architecture really pushed this forward. Go Linux! And go ARM!

        Valheim doesn’t work anywhere like a charm, Windows included. They like certain nVidia cards but other than that it’s one of the worst optimized games I had disfortune to use.

          It works fine if you’re the chosen one.

          I can play it fine in my machine, both windows and Linux, but most of my friends can’t get it to work anywhere close to fine.

          It’s also terrible on steam deck.

          It runs fine for me on Linux, same as it does in Windows, always has since release. I am using an Nvidia card though, so maybe I lucked out.

            From my experience it’s almost luck based.

          Thats unfortunately true.What I ment was that it runs much better than windows that tend to BSOD if I’m lucky or shut down my computer after a couple of minutes.

        They actually made the anti cheat compatible. You just run the exe through wine-ge (I use lutris for that) and it just works. Nothing is modified. Lutris installer also has an installer script that just runs a clean unmodified exe from mihoyo’s site.

        I’ve been running it since 3.8 just fine, everything just works in it. Apparently it’s been supported since 3.5.

        Avoid AnAnimeGame Launcher, that is the launcher where they modify your files, which is completely unnecessary now that it’s compatible.

          I wonder if the anticheat actually works that way or it just makes the game think it works.

            Probably works that way, because it used to be a kernel level anti cheat which Wine can’t fake. If an anti cheat runs in user space (which they should, kernel level is a massive security issue), then it should run with Wine just fine.

          Personally, I don’t see it coming anytime soon. I played genshin on linux for maybe over a year, and with the fps unlocker for maybe almost 2 years, on both windows and linux, and have never been banned.

          I stopped playing on version a few months ago though.
