Helldivers 2 works almost perfectly on Linux. I had to nest it in a gamescope session to fix some weird mouse issues, but that was it. I dual-boot Windows and I've never even launched it there.

I just press a green button in steam

Not on Linux though, you had to do a bunch of fucking about to almost make it flawless.

No, I literally had to add one change to the game launch properties one time. It took me probably 3 minutes of googling and following instructions. I wouldn't call that "a bunch of fucking shit".

I did nothing more than pushing a button.

I mean that's a stupid and childish retort. Congratulations on being the problem. I'm sure I have a fedora to tio in your direction

I disagree, it's a statement of fact. There's nothing inherently wrong with that fact that you're lazy about fiddling with computers. I'm lazy about certain things in my own life.

But it's pointless trying to convert lazy people to Linux when it requires an effort level above 0 and they don't want to put in anymore than that.
