    I’m playing it on my Linux desktop using Wine/Steam Proton, dunno if that addresses your concerns perfectly…

        On one hand you’re absolutely right. Cheating can and should be dealt with using server side validation tools without needing to use invasive rootkits with spyware-like and keylogger components on our systems.

        On the other hand, I’ve been very impressed in Valve spearheading the movement via Proton and the Steam Deck to make Linux users impossible to ignore. There are many approaches that could have had an “Only Steam-Deck compatible” solution, but Valve didn’t go that direction. Now Linux gamers everywhere benefit, and developers don’t lose out from what’s now a significant gaming userbase, many of whom are also technically inclined and willing to bring feedback to the developer.

      I was surprised to learn this a few days ago, and did end up buying it, but its still infuriating that the Devs seem to have chosen the absolute worst path possible for their stated goal of preventing players from artificially having their progression completed. This could’ve been solved in a multitude of different and less invasive ways
